Quoting: Fjordy
Pysyk plays almost 19 minutes per game and looks good, his metrics are in very solid and most of the games he played with Hagg, which is bad. Pair it with Power in the second pair, I think a Power - Pysyk pair will be better than a Hagg - Pysyk pair. I agree that Jokiharju should play in the third pair, Samuelsson or Bryson with Jokiharju. We need to find at least one good goalie and a top 4 RD who plays well in defense to play in the first pair with Dahlin.
There will be many RHD available this year, just a matter of finding the best one.
Letang, Klingberg, Subban, Schultz, and Braun are all possible.
Letang is unlikely, Klingberg is certainly possible, Subban would not be the best, but he is still good.
Schultz and Braun would be only a little better than Jokiharju.
Getting Kuemper from Colorado or Campbell from Toronto are possibilities.
Because I have been disappointed in the past, I will reserve my enthusiasm of the future.
The Sabres farm system has been ranked #1 before (in 2014 ESPN ranked Reinhart, Grigorenko, Zadorov, Fasching, Compher, Armia, Possler, and McCabe among the top 100 prospects while Ristolainen, Girgensons, Pysyk and Foligno were considered graduates but all under 23 yo.) and nothing came out of that.
Fasching and Possler never contributed while Zadorov, Grigorenko, Compher, Pysyk and Armia were traded within two years.
Let's hope Krebs, Quinn, Peterka, Rosen and Power are the real deal.
