imo the best you can hope for is a mid first, but likely sabres are going to end up somewhere in the mid to late 20's.

20-25

Top 10 protected

We can still judge, BUT why wouldn't BUF take the best offer. I feel confident in saying that CGY wasn't offering much better.

Where do you see that?


If that's the case, Vegas wins the trade.

Dreger reported its top ten protected this year.

Say it with me folks:

Small Sample Sizes!

Moneypuck has VGK at 51.1% playoff likely right now in large part because of their 48.9% team Corsi in part ​because pac and stone have 4gp combined

Also team performance fluctuates randomly

They're a 53% + true talent Corsi team when healthy

Stone returns soon. Pac returns Dec. WK in jan.

When Eichel returns in February they'll start to 🔥

I'll bet anyone here $100* they make the playoffs

*dogecoin

Playoffs are definitely randomly volatile and 60 win teams lose first round occasionally so yeah the pick could be late teens but that's still very unlikely

this is laughably bad (which alot of us called a lower return) the centerpiece in this deal is krebs. the pick will not be top 10. and if it is buffalo gets screwed even harder. cant imagine this was the best offer they got.

Even if it wasn’t, vegas wins the trade.

You should feel ridiculously confident that the package from Calgary was severely misreported.
