<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NucksnOilers</b></div><div>What room is there for either of them? Krebs doesn't have any room in the middle 6 at all and Jokiharju doesn't have any room in the bottom 4. Both of these guys are going to be RFA's and teams will know Buffalo has no space for either of them so why would they pay top dollar when they can just wait for them to be on open market? Krebs just isn't good enough to be a 3C on a playoff contending team like the Sabers want to be (Adams job might depend on it) so he won't fit there and there needs to be room for Johnson so play so Jokiharju won't have a spot either</div></div>

But even when there isn’t room with organizations, teams still seem to get appropriate value for their assets. A team would have to pay that price as they both are decent enough assets that there will be more than 1 suitor for each. They each can be a secondary piece within a bigger trade, not useless picks. ****, the corpse of Eric Johnson just pulled a 4th and he’s significantly worse than Joki, like in every way possible except for that one time he got dragged into a SC win with the Avs. Add in both play premium positions, selling low just doesn’t make sense

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AntiAnalytics</b></div><div>I agree w Greysuits &amp; Tjm
And of course we’d have to give up Samuelsson +
Just don’t think the “+” would be Quinn

Would more likely be a prospect like Rosen, Savoie, Ostlund, etc etc (we have a bunch)

noted,
U think u guys trade Kyrou over Buchnevich, or move both ?</div></div>

Kyrou has a no trade clause that kicks in July 1, 2025. I personally believe the Blues will trade him before that. I know many on here will chastise me for saying that but just what I believe. So whether they trade him this off-season, at next deadline, or next off-season I don't know. I've heard from someone I trust that his name has been brought up in trade discussions before. (again I'll be chastised for saying this)

I don't know on Buch. If they trade Kyrou, depending on what came back, I think they would try to resign Buch. I don't envision them both being here long term but again I don't know.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>As a Sabres fan, I understand your pain all too well. I just wonder if San Jose will even come close to the 13 year playoff drought that we are facing down right now. To put that in perspective, the previous NHL record playoff drought was nine years. We’ve already crushed that. It may be a flippant thought, but I am of the opinion that if any other franchise had a 13 year playoff drought, they might just fold the damn team. Not even relocate because they wouldn’t want to put another city through that.</div></div>

It was just bad contract after bad contract, and it was like obvious stuff too, like DW signs a guy who’s on the wrong side of 30 to an 8x8, how would that ever work out, and it doesn’t. Then Karlsson 11.5x8 just bad move after bad move

I like to think that once some of our guys make the NHL full time we can find our way back into the playoffs.

I feel your pain.
