Sabres Trade Byram, Boost Draft Picks

The Sabres pulled off a major trade, sending Bowen Byram and Jordan Greenway to Chicago for the fourth overall draft pick—and now they’ve got six picks total heading into the draft in Buffalo. GM Kekäläinen’s goal? Get better, whether through fresh talent or another big trade. Byram, who wanted out to be a top defenseman elsewhere, accepted Chicago’s offer, which gave Buffalo solid value. Meanwhile, forward Alex Tuch’s contract talks are stalled, and the Sabres are exploring sign-and-trade options to recoup assets. They also added the 20th pick from San Jose by sending their 27th pick and defenseman Michael Kesselring. The Sabres are clearly active, hungry to make noise—and they’ve got the draft capital to back it up. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
