Bo Byram may have played his final game for the Buffalo Sabres as a trade seems more and more likely
Sabres defenseman Bo Byram needs a contract this summer as a restricted free agent, but does he want to stay in Buffalo long-term? Does Kevyn Adams want him signed to a long-term deal? Sneaky Joe looks through Byram’s 2024-25 season, what trades make sense for Byram including deals for Elias Pettersson, and what a short-term contract extension could look like for Byram.
Plus, numbers to back up the narrative that Byram plays significantly better with Rasmus Dahlin, and worse with Owen Power.

GMKA is a moron if he gets rid of Byram – that’s all I’ll say
You are so bad at this. Please get off the morning show. It’s horrible
The outcome seems inevitable. Adams will rearrange the furniture. Trade Byram to fill 1 hole, only to create another. He’ll make other middling moves and hope Levi saves the day. The end of October will roll around and we’ll be behind the 8-ball. The fans will call for his job, again. Albeit there will be less of them, especially with Canadiens avoiding the states.
I just googled top nhl GM candidates. There’s more than I thought. Former GM’s, other guys who have put in the time, waiting for their first chance. We can’t find a guy with a vision? Our owner has been in charge for over 12 years. He still doesn’t have connections? I suppose when he just hand out jobs without interviewing anyone, he doesn’t. It just feels so hopeless right now.
Sign him long term and during negotiations tell him if he signs we’ll trade Powers. With a clause that if they dont he can ask to be traded. Close offensively way better defensively
In a year and 1/3, Byram's overall play and his numbers aren't really all that great. They are good with Dahlin (but everyone has good numbers with Dahlin), but Byram's numbers are below average with every single other D-man on the team.
He has skill, but his overall play is over-rated.
While I like Bo, he doesn't seem to want to stay in Buffalo. Get what you can for him
