Kevyn Adams conclut enfin un échange important en envoyant l’espoir Matthew Savoie à Edmonton en retour du joueur de centre Ryan McLeod et du joueur de la Ligue américaine Tyler Tullio. Pourquoi les gens de l’extérieur de Buffalo critiquent-ils les Sabres pour avoir fait cet échange? Sneaky Joe défend le raisonnement selon lequel les Sabres ont surpayé dans cet échange, mais défend également les Sabres pour avoir dû payer trop cher dans un échange qui les rend meilleurs. Une analyse approfondie de Ryan McLeod montre un joueur qui devrait être beaucoup plus performant à Buffalo qu’à Edmonton.

I do believe we will have one of the best penalty kills in nhl hopefully our power play improves special teams is gonna be huge for the Sabres this year
Lots of hate for this trade, I'll wait and see to decide. I had a feeling Savoie was a bust but it's way too soon to tell. So who's the Sabres next captain? Dahlin or Tuch?
Petterka-Thompson-Tuch
Quinn-Cozens-Benson
Zucker-McLeod-Lafferty
Greenway-Krebs-Kubel
It’s not a head turning lineup but it’s a good lineup
i wonder if the Savoie camp and the Sabres relationship got soured after this previous season, he played that one game, very strange management, and then sent away.
Lets go get Crosby
The Sabres are getting roasted but I just can’t get upset about losing a 5’8” 180# prospect. If he’s the next Briere, it’ll definitely suck. But McLeod’s analytics chart looks strong and if he embraces a 3rd line shutdown center roll, it’ll free up Cozens for more offensive opportunities which he is more suited for. But Edmonton fans aren’t sad to see him go which is certainly concerning.
Now hopefully Adams can find that top 6 LW w/o giving up Kulich.
Love the off-season so far. The narrative around this team is so toxic at this point, and yeah guys, I get it. But there is a legit roster re-tool happening. These are moves we needed to make. Moves people have bitched about us not making for the last how many years? People just posting awkward-Kevyn Adams-face memes in comment sections. F off. You're not welcome to the party when this team finally makes it back, with Lindy fking Ruff behind the bench.
LET'S GO
they found a player without a NMC and overpaid for him, it is what it is. buffalo needs to get into the playoffs, this trade help with that.
Can you get a better mic? Shouting into a headset sounds awful and makes me turn off the video.
The NHL may be laughing right now, but I'm not. I hate this trade. We got absolutely fleeced, and the question I have is, if Savoie was that expendable, why didn't we trade him for help any other time in the last 2 years? GMKA, has ben preaching patience for years and talked about building from within and not making foolish moves in a desperate attempt to make the playoffs once. Why wait until Kevyn is desperate to save his job and get a marginal 3rd line center? Why not make this move a year ago right after Quinn got hurt and get a top 6 forward instead? IMO, worst move of the Adams era, and I hope he gets fired. What happens in a couple years when Tuch decides to leave as a UFA and we need a top line RW? WE'll be regretting that Savoie wasn't traded. Send me the hate comments. I don't care. This trade sucks.
The Sabres had a strong prospect pool before this trade, and they still have a strong pool after this trade. And beyond the forward prospects mentioned in the video, they also have guys like Wahlberg, Neuchev, Richard and maybe even Polotopov that have good talent coming along.
Is the new Sabres draft pick Geary related to Nate Geary of WGR? If so, that's friggin awesome!
I’d guess math wasn’t your thing. 99th percentile is the highest, there is no 100th percentile.
I'm not a prospects expert but I did think Savoie was the Sabres best prospect. Seems like GM Adams knows it's a make or break for him this coming year. Maybe he picked up vibes from the owner? Who knows? Don't recall remembering McLeod's play with the oilers so I reserve judgement. Hoping Lindy had a say in the deal. Good luck Sabres!
Adams has a lot riding on Bo Byram. Traded Mitts and then had to trade Savoie to replace him.
Thx Joe
Love the pick up for the sabres, huge sabres fan that lives in Edmonton and watched every oilers game. Many teams I’d see McLeod rushing up ice with the puck and mistakenly think it was mcdavid. His speed is fantastic.
Benson is our new casey mittlestadt. The sabres might have a chance this year if the can find some chemistry.
Savoie wasn't jumped on the prospect chart by Benson, he was ineligible to play in Rochester basically due to age. He was our best prospect by a lot. We get great players in Buffalo via prospects. We just lost a great player. You do understand Moose Jaw traded 7 PICKS (2 first rounders) for Savoie, knowing he's leaving to the AHL/NHL?
I'd have rather seen them trade Benson AND Krebs. I'm not a whiny fan. I've followed only the Sabres my whole 20+ years of being a hockey fan. I've defended KA and basically everything i've seen people complain about the entire time.
This is the most disheartening trade i've seen. Hell no. Maybe it makes us better this year, but only this year. I don't think we're winning a cup this year, so it's a loss.
I've been happy with every other move we made this offseason. But this just stung me to the core. I've been more excited to see Savoie than any other player coming up since our President's Cup days.
I just lost all respect for your opinions, honestly.
Awesome 😁🇨🇦🇺🇸
Great trade 😁🇨🇦🇺🇸
Speed 😂rules 🚀🇨🇦🔥🇺🇸
I’m not panicking. We needed a 3rd line center and Ryan McLeod could be just that. We’ve still got a helluva lot of forwards not to mention Helenius. Everyone relax. We’re just gearing up for Lindy’s play style.
I wish it was savoi to the pens for Eller
I’m glad Savoie was the Rd1 prospect moved. Kulich and Rosen have been cooking in the AHL. Oslund projected as a better center. And now there’s Helenius.
At 5’9” with an injury history, Savoie suddenly fits less with what they are trying to do under Ruff.
I really feel sorry for Sabres fans today….
standout stats for McLeod
•11.9% shooting
•49% face-offs
•fastest skater in the nhl
Terrible deal. Buffalo got fleeced. Is the GM trying to get a job in Edmonton?
Jeff Jackson realized you only win the cup if you trade for a Sabre, not sign a bought out one.
Talk about getting FLEECED!!! Adams took a strappin on this one!
McLeod will infuriate you. Great size, elite speed but absolutely no interest of going to the net. His playmaking is not good enough to do anything on his zone entries he creates with his speed and his shot isnt strong enough to score from distance.
Oiler fan here. I agree with your take on the trade. You'll like McLeod. He's dynamic to watch. Adds a lot of speed, and good on the penalty kill. Will fill that third line center role and he actually also played in top 6 sometimes on the wing. i think he has more upside than he has shown. Could see him getting 16-20 goals next year with more ice time. Not sure about the take that he is an elite defensive forward – can make defensive mistakes in his end 5 on 5, and is not very physical for someone his size. I also agree that Savoie was an expendable commodity for the Sabres given all your young forward prospects.
