<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>XBestOneYetX</b></div><div>As Forbesy said, Adams waited too long. Rangers just signed Nemeth to pair with Lundkvist, a kid who some are saying is the best defensive prospect in the league, he only broke all of Hedman and Karlsson's under 20 records in the SHL. He isn't being traded.

For Kakko to be traded the Sabres will need to retain salary, taking far less of a return, and that seems to be the sticking point from what I've heard. Likely some combination (3-4 pieces) of Chytil, Georgiev, Jones, Kravstov and a 1st are all that's being offered at this point. Just a matter if Sabres will go into this season with an unhappy captain, I can't see that happening, whether they trade him to use or someone else.</div></div>

Agree with everything you said here. Seider might just be a little ahead of Nils, but a blue chip RHD for sure. I can't wait to see him play next year

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sabres923</b></div><div>That’s not saying too much right now. I would rather have a lottery pick score right away than develop a defensive game like Eichel, Matthews, and Rantanen did. I just don’t see a high offensive ceiling. 4/9 goals were scored on Dustin Tokarski..</div></div>

Well, you said he won't be anything special, I disagree based on his progression thru 2 years. You can't disregard a whole draft class because no one that year is storming out the gate at 19 years old taking over the NHL like Connor McDavid, Austin Matthews or Jack Eichel. Some young players take time. Points aren't everything. Kaapo Kakko was a no brainer choice at #2. There isn't 1 GM in the league who wouldn't have taken him. Here's a fun fact, Matthew Barzal, Claude Giroux and Mark Schiefle were still in junior hockey at Kappo Kakko's age, and they all turned out okay. Don't you think?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sabresfuturecupwinners</b></div><div>None, ZERO of your prospects including Kakko are A prospects at this moment besides Laf and I know he's "untouchable" this is what it takes to get a top ten NHL elite player</div></div>

Okay, let's assume you are correct and Lafrienare is the only A prospect.... Tell me what team is giving you an A prospect and has the cap space for a hurt Eichel? I'll wait. Go back in time and look at the Rick Nash deal. Columbus was expecting to get Kreider, McDounagh and some, and they didn't even get 1 player the fan base was expecting. Buffallo is losing any deal that has to do with Eichel, the longer they wait the more complicated and painful it's going to be. This is the reality of the situation.
