Jordan Kyrou is the ALEX TUCH REPLACEMENT the Buffalo Sabres should be shooting for

1. You did not sell me on why we should give up 3 assets for this player. Maybe 2.

2. Is kyrou any good?

3. Joe trying to convince us how good Jordan Kyrou is by telling us how good he was 5 seasons ago (2021-22 season). He’s not even close to an Alex Tuch replacement if he doesn’t touch the penalty kill. Joe just focuses on offense when he’s analyzing these players. It’s the way an 11-year-old would think. That’s why he loves Jeff Skinner and Max Afinogenov

4. St Louis Digest saying Thomas is highly sought after by Minnesota and Montreal wants Kyrou bad.

5. If the Sabres can't afford Tuch, how can they afford Kyrou's $8.25M ?

6. McLoud no way.

7. Zucker over McLoud.

   I don’t think Buffalo should trade Mrtka at all.

   Norris would be perfect to trade away. Can’t keep Mr Glass on this roster.

8. Joe you need a "timeout" man. This is ridiculous. They need to sign Benson, Krebs… Is it Malynsteyn also? Benson is going to cost Doan basically, closd to 6.5… Joe the whole issue is F-ING CAP SPACE! Kyrou is a F-ING DOWNGRADE from Tuch man and costs almost the same! Jesus f-ing Christ. Please, try and come up with better ideas other than getting worse value on a return. How about we focus on trying to get through this year and keep as much of the team in tact as possible? Can we focus on getting all these guys signed? And the next year, when the cap goes up how about going after McDavid and actually getting a real upgrade? How's that sound for a strategy? Hellebuyck is 8.5mil, has worse numbers than UPL in 25/26 and is 6 years his elder at 33yrs. Joe, it's 'timeout time'… For the whole media 👍 🏒 💯 ⚔️

9. No – he isn’t. Jarmo is introducing a youth movement with this new era of Buffalo Sabres hockey.

10. Jimmy Snuggerud—LOL, His father Dave played for Buffalo-1st autograph I ever got.

11. Second video in a row, more nonsense trade ideas 😂😂😂

    McLeod is going to be a big part of this team. In no way does trading him for a decent player make this team better. Ridiculous.

12. kyrou will change literally nothing. they dont need another winger with upside, they need a 1st and second line center. that way thompson can play wing and still carry the puck up the ice

13. No

14. LTIR: put Greenway or/and Norris on LTIR for one year. Greenway would take a vacation and get paid. Norris probably wouldn't want to… But if this team wants to hold together in tact thats probably the only solution. They would have an extra 4-12 million in cap and bringing them close to 25mil. Tuch 10-11mil + Benson 5-6mil + Malynsteyn + Krebs with remaining 8-9mil and whatever is left over. This is the conversation and math the fanhood should be engaging in right now. Not going after over-priced assets that don't benefit the team and just further complicate the situation 👍 🏒 💯 ⚔️

15. This might be the worst take you've ever given. I'd delete this, personally.

16. So he’s worse in almost every regard, is slightly younger and still expensive? I’m sold

17. We need a top center not a winger for over $8 million. I wouldn’t trade any of our centers for him especially when Norris and McLeod play great defense too. We need all our forwards to play good defense like Carolina and vgk

18. I think Helenius and ostlund and if kulich is ready that can replace Tuchs production and I wouldn’t wanna trade anything for Kyrou anyways but that’s just me

19. I think Robert Thomas wood be the best

20. I’m out on KYROU when you threw those stats out.
    He gets Tuch goals
    0 physicality when I want to see Buffalo more physical.
    0 power play help
    0 penalty kill
    Now we lose
    Tuch
    Plus whatever is in the package
    All to save 2 million dollars
    Sounds ludicrous
    Makes you believe even more that Tuch deserves the 2 million extra dollars.
    Not to mention the leadership Tuch has in the locker room
    And he livs in Cuse

21. Are they taking on 25 percent retention for all that.
    Essentially losing 4 players by not paying Tuch.
    Seems silly

22. Joe. No. Tuch and the young uns stay. Lukk maybe. But he’s been getting better every year. Tough one to be the GM right now.

23. Kyrou might be able to out up close to the same points as Tuch but is nowhere near the player Tuch is. Also think he could possibly be lockroom cance.

24. Blues fan here. I DO NOT recommend any player from STL especially JK. He's a low energy, low hockey iq, low skill player that fumbles the puck constantly, inconsistent shooter and not worth half his AAV. Refuses to back check and gives up on plays like Robert Thomas. He was an $8 million healthy scratch for one game because he just wasn't skating or putting in any effort. I don't know if it's a Blues coaching problem or player problem but I just don't want to see BUF make a big mistake here.

25. Not interested in him. No way no how.

26. Yeah, Joe really needs a time out. This could be his wackiest trade idea so far, although his Panarin proposed trade is probably still his wackiest. C'mon Joe, get your act together, don't become another Jeremy, I love listening to Sabres podcasts but start making some sense!

27. I like Locked On Sabres but I can't support the Locked On Network with their pushing of gambling. It's immoral and it's a lie. They call themselves prediction markets but the reality is they are just big gambling platforms. They say there isn't a house it's just a prediction market. They are doing YOU a favor see! No house! So it's not gambling and you won't lose your shirt! It's disgusting and I can't support the Locked On Network as long as they push this trash.

28. Question you have to ask is if Alex Tuch was on another team and was up for trade possibility would you trade assets to try to get him. Then you remove assets necessary to keep him. Less valuable assets we are talking move greenway and Zucker out vs
    1st rnd pick Mrtka and mcloud.
    Otherwise we may honestly have to take a step back let him walk see what the kids produce and make moves at the deadline. They will be good enough to keep us in the race for playoffs id assume. Deadline move can be for a UFA and go after the big acquisitions next offseason where we are no longer hampered with the cap situation
