I was a bit surprised that the Sabres let him go, but I think they were hoping he'd be more of an offensive guy than he is.

Sabres were still pinching pennies then same with Tallinder. Before the Pegula era.

Watched Lydman in Buffalo for a few years, if you want a D-man who is going to put up points he's not your guy, but if you want a solid stay at home D-man who blocks a ton of shots he is def capiable. Very underrated was mad to see him leave Buffalo.

Well this problem was solved last night with the Sekera injury, seeing as he is going to be out "weeks". Add another player to the list 14 opening night players now I think that have missed at least one game this season. ouch

The problem of too many talented young defensemen is a good one to have. Don't over-expose them, let them develop.

A lot of the decision on "who goes" will be contract-based. Who's got options to be sent down?

And contract size. They may send Weber down just to save the fraction of the $400K on the cap.

Any player that goes down has to clear waivers, besides McNabb, that's why I think he goes down unfortunately. Unless they make a trade.

No thanks on Bryz we already have an overpaid goalie. Ehrhoff started good then went bad and is now on the good side again at the moment. Not a chance he is put out of lineup with that contract, I just hope he isn't so up and down for the next 10 years. Ehrhoff has played with every d-man this season. Not a good way to build chemistry, but he has found some with McNabb as of late.

Trade Myers to Philly. Problem solved.

Take Leino back too?

Bryaden McNabb has been one if not the best Sabres defenseman since his call up. With Tyler Myers set to return soon, what do the Sabres do with McNabb? What about Weber and Gragnani?
