Who? lmao

Jacob Bryson!

Who? lmao

You know Buffalo’s 3rd pairing defenseman Jacob Bryson.

No. People outside of Buffalo don't know who he is what we are giggling about.

I’m way outside of Buffalo but I know who Jacob Bryson is.

Not a Sabres fan either.

Everyone knows Bryson these days it seems.

Apart from his good skating and speed his huge plus is that he can play both LD and RD equally well. He looked good paired with Dahlin and paired with Samuelsson.

Him and Borgen would be a fantastic and young 3rd pair, sigh

Yeah, it's too bad we didn't give Risto away for free rather than of getting a 1st+ for him so that we could protect Will Borgen instead.

Don't really understand the undying love some posters have for Borgen. He's 25, and has been an ok 3rd pairing Dman. There's really nothing spectacular about his game to warrant how much attachment some posters have to him in my view. Seems like a younger Justin Holl.

Same thing happened with Will Carrier in the Vegas expansion draft. Solid bottom of the roster player, but nothing to get so worked up over. But where there's a Will, there's a way!

Adams likely would be looking for a righty to work with Bryson, (or possibly Power), so Gudbranson could fit the description. Though maybe not my first choice, he seems to have found his game and become a serviceable player in Calgary, and he would likely be an upgrade on Casey FItzgerald, so maybe?

His name is John Manson.

From an outside view Bryson seems like a good defender despite his size.

From what I’ve seen of him looks like a decent skater and really good at moving the puck up ice with crisp passes.

Haven’t got to see him against a good forechecking team so I’d refer to Buffalo fans as to what his weaknesses are and does Bryson PP or PK on a regular basis as a 3rd pairing defenseman.

He's a very good skater. Probably his best quality.

I didn't question exposing him, just saying I wish he was still on the Sabres.
