You're stuck taking cap for short term filler hoping to ride it for a year until Cozens is ready or rolling the dice on a rfa like Strome and overlooking all his short comings.Been sick for a bit and had some time to think through some stuff. I don’t see a scenario where the Sabres get a legit 2C without moving Reinhart.

Personally I like Stepan for cheap, trading cap for a short term fix. If you want to go big roll out these:
1.
Ari
2nd
Fitzgerald
Buf
Raanta
Stepan
Fischer (since D. J is so high on him)
2.
Chi
Hutton
Buf
Saad
3.
Win
Montour
Buf
Copp
Skinner Eichel Reinhart
Oloffson Stepan Saad
Johansson Copp Fischer
Kahun Lazar Okposo
Roustslainen / Thompson
Dahlin Miller
McCabe Risto
Samuelsson Joki
Borgen
Ulmark
Raanta
Moving Reinhart actually solves our 2c problem. Moving him to 2c that is.Been sick for a bit and had some time to think through some stuff. I don’t see a scenario where the Sabres get a legit 2C without moving Reinhart.

Skinner - Eichel - Olofsson
Then fill out the middle 6. You've got Reinhart, Johansson , and Kahun, need 3 more. That would be easier to aquire than a 2c.
I agree but I don’t see that happening.
Here's hoping with Botterill out of the picture that option is back on the table.
Reinhart has to be one of the only #1 centers drafted that never played center full-time in the NHL.I agree but I don’t see that happening.

He was like the 3rd or 4th center drafted. Reinhart was the first, would have been #1 overall.Elias Lindholm has mostly played wing.
I'm looking and I'm all the way into the 1990's without finding one. The Sabres are the dumbest organization in the NHL. Reinhart should have been developed as a center. He was a natural center when drafted.Homework assignment, find me a center drafted as the 1st forward taken that never played center full-time in the NHL? I'm sure there is someone.

I don’t think it will be. Krueger could’ve just played him there.

So you'd rather downgrade on both sides of the puck than play a player at his natural position? I guess that's par for the course with this franchise.Or Housley, or Bylsma....
This is a logical argument you will never win with some ppl.
I agree with you as regards 2C acquisition.
It will cost 8OV if we are lucky.
Using your example though - I'd have no problem giving up Reinhart for Monahan.

Stepan for Johanssen is my favorite idea right now. It's a bandaid fix, we can deploy him in higher ozone starts than he got in ARI. We don't take on that much cap. It's the kind of low risk move I am expecting this summer.
No one has worked harder to get a single player on the Sabres then you have with FischerI’ve looked at this for a few weeks. I think Adams with do something like Montour for Copp, bails Arizona our and get Stepan for a year, and sign a LHD.
Montour for Copp
2021 2nd, Hutton for Stepan, Raanta, Fischer
Sign Edmundson
Skinner - Eichel - Reinhart
Johansson - Stepan - Olofsson
Kahun - Copp - Fischer
Thompson - Larsson - Cozens
x Okposo, Lazar
Dahlin - Miller
McCabe - Ristolainen
Edmundson - Jokiharju
x Borgen
Raanta, Ullmark
