I’ve heard that Jiricek could get moved. How much more than Savoie would Sabres have to add?
No you haven't. You've heard, at best, wild speculation by desperate vultures.I’ve heard that Jiricek could get moved.
Alot. Big RHD for small winger. Who has proven more as well. I dont see why CBJ does this.I’ve heard that Jiricek could get moved. How much more than Savoie would Sabres have to add?

A team not wanting to trade a big RHD with 1D upside for another small offensive forward is hardly disrespect. Columbus has plenty of young skilled forwards, they like Buffalo do not have anyone to match Jiriceks upside on the right side of the defense. Not sure why thats hard to understandThe Savoie disrespect is wild in here. I get that Savoie isn't what Columbus is wanting and Columbus fans have this wall up that Jiricek won't be moved. Currently Savoie should not be an add on or throw in for any trade. If he is being moved, he is the main piece.
Ive seen Savoie play also, most recently his last 2 games on the weekend while tuning in to watch Mateychuk. Hes good, we know that. Hes not Jiricek good and doesnt provide the same upside especially to Columbus should they both even remotely reach their upside.I’ve seen Savoie play ( unlike majority of hf). Silky smooth skating / hands, elite vision. He will be GOOD, like 65-85 pt good. GM Adams knows this and he won’t be selling low on him. I’m not saying Jiricek for him is bad for Buffalo, sounds like a good hockey trade, I’d prefer to keep him until we know more clearly what we have in him.( btw I admit I don’t watch Jiricek regularly so maybe I’m just ignorant )
We have too many wingers and not enough solid RDs in the system as is. It just doesn't make any sense for the Jackets, even if the value is there.what about Benson for Jiricek ?
Savoie is nowhere near Jiricak value atm, maybe in the future but not now

And I think that Fantilli guy has the 1C spot you mention locked down for the foreseeable future. Add to that Columbus has what is a top 10 or maybe even top 5 pick again. Wouldnt be shocked either way if they go C or D in the upconing draft.Disrespect or just a bad fit? Columbus - like Buffalo - has a lot of young, offensive minded wingers. They need a 1C (or high-end 2C) and RD. Jiricek is RD and capable of being a long-term fit for them. There is no reason for him to be moved shy of filling that other need and even then, it has to be a fit.
I guess it’s really hard to compare a D and F at a younger age ?Ive seen Savoie play also, most recently his last 2 games on the weekend while tuning in to watch Mateychuk. Hes good, we know that. Hes not Jiricek good and doesnt provide the same upside especially to Columbus should they both even remotely reach their upside.
Jiricek already has a WJC best player award, he put up 38 points in 55 games last season as a teenage defenseman in the AHL and now with the stint hes had this year hes up to 7 points in 6 games while still needing to fill out. Hes going to be a monster someday.
Unless they win the lottery for Celebrini, I’d be shocked if they went with a forward in the top eight.And I think that Fantilli guy has the 1C spot you mention locked down for the foreseeable future.

Not really. But regardless, its easy to see team needs. Columbus has a big hole at 1st pair RD, Jiricek has 1st pair RD upsude. Seems simple enough to meI guess it’s really hard to compare a D and F at a younger age ?
Comparing D to F is like apples and oranges. Completely different positions on different sides of the ice with different responsibilities. Of course it’d be harder to compare them. Anyway I respect your opinionNot really. But regardless, its easy to see team needs. Columbus has a big hole at 1st pair RD, Jiricek has 1st pair RD upsude. Seems simple enough to me
I dont know anymore. Im guessing they like their top 4 D for the future and we dont have any longterm 2Cs in the system currently. I just wouldnt be shocked if they go grab LindstromUnless they win the lottery for Celebrini, I’d be shocked if they went with a forward in the top eight.
The sabres need to move some youth and picks and acquire there version of JT Miller, Hronek, Toews etc.I’ve seen Savoie play ( unlike majority of hf). Silky smooth skating / hands, elite vision.
