GASabresIUFAN Posted Tuesday at 12:29 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:29 AM (edited) Will Adams acquire a legit top 6 forward or 2/3 center before next season? Who do you think is still available to acquire? OK, let the debate begin! Edited Tuesday at 12:31 AM by GASabresIUFAN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-U-F-F-A-L-O Posted Tuesday at 12:46 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:46 AM KA’s press conference was laughable if not delusional… yes, we badly needed the tougher players. But we also badly needed tougher and better players… We’re two short by my count and the poll above…. #2LW and 3C…. We need GOOD players here. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GASabresIUFAN Posted Tuesday at 12:48 AM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:48 AM A couple of acquisition ideas from another thread Henrique is still un-signed JG Pageau maybe on the trading block from the NYI. He does have a limited NTC. Roslovic is still available. He might be the best target at this point. 15 minutes ago, Sabres Fan in NS said: The poll should be public so I know who to shame for voting no to both. 7-1 so far! You will have much shaming to do if I made the poll public. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottysabres Posted Tuesday at 12:54 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:54 AM I think a trade happens, I don't think it will be for a pure center, more likely a 2nd/3rd line tweener winger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashsabre Posted Tuesday at 01:05 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 01:05 AM If he thinks his job is on the line and this is all he does well then he deserves his fate. I have to believe something else is ahead. Pinto, Rossi, Ehlers, Buchnevech , Pageau could be some options 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorny Posted Tuesday at 01:09 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 01:09 AM The 3C is more likely I’d say, surprised early results say otherwise. 40/60 on a top 7 addition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than half the people on here wanted Okposo and Girg back last year. Many of us told you they needed a Trade for Top 4 Defense and a Winger, maybe even a Goalie. We were Right the Bottom 6 was not correct. Goaltending shook itself out and we got Bo Byram later. We lost Quinn to which worsened what happen last year So Adams went out this year and took care of Bottom 6 quickly, looks good on Paper Only thing we need no is Skinner replacement. This doesn't have to happen quickly. Could be before Camp, could be during Camp. Maybe a Prospect like Savoie, Benson, Rosen steps up for the Spot. Good Trade is better than a Fast one for your Fantasy League or Psyche. That said, I would like Sam Bennett, Iaefello or Nick Foligno 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoPuckYourself Posted Tuesday at 01:15 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 01:15 AM My last bit of hope is that there have been rumors to Adams trying to deal for both Martin Necas (CAR), Nikolaj Ehlers (WPG) and where there's smoke there is usually fire or at least 1 can hope, if this doesn't transpire in like a week or so the doubt will certainly creep in that this is the lineup we're going with. Either 1 of those players instanly is an upgrade imo to Jeff Skinner and would really mesh well with what we've done to day (I liked the 4th line upgrades+Zucker). I have a gut feeling that they'll play Jason Zucker at 3rd line C for us, he played some at Pittsburgh and throughout his career although i saw Zucker was on the 2nd line LW with Logan Cooley and Kerfoote at RW so I'm hoping they didn't replace Skinner with Zucker. When the media asked if Peyton Krebs would just fill in that role although Adams gave Krebs the Girgensons speech basically on how good of a player he was he never sounded like he wanted him to fill that role so I just have a sneaky suspiscion that Zucker is going to fill that role. I voted yes we'll add a Skinner replacement and no to the 3rd line C. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted Tuesday at 02:47 AM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 02:47 AM Listening to Baker and Fairburn's show and Baker thinks KA isn't done. Thinks they should go get Zegras. Fairburn thinks there is a deal to be made with Calgary who needs a youth injection. Maybe Coleman, maybe Kadri. I'm wondering if Backlund is available. His experience would be very valuable and he is still effective. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted Tuesday at 03:47 AM Author Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:47 AM I'm a little surprised that the board thinks it's more likely that Adams acquires a top 6 forward vs a center. When I look at the roster, it looks to me like the only "available" forward job is the 3C. We have ample wingers in Tuch, JJP, Quinn, Benson, Zucker and Greenway, but all we really have at center is Cozens and TNT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerreaultForever Posted Tuesday at 03:51 AM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 03:51 AM I said before if Krebs is 3C we are done. Season is over before it starts. I stand by that. I have very little hope. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
