🚨BREAKING: News out of Buffalo New York regarding 24 year old left shot Stanley Cup winning defenseman, Bowen Byram the ask has gone up. Yesterday’s price isn’t today’s. Kevyn Adams who spells his first name like he was conceived in a trailer park, doesn’t feel the rush to move Byram if the price isn’t right. He will hold not fold. Let’s see where this goes..

Buffalo gets to do what it wants to. Go ahead, hang onto him and let Buffalo figure out where they get the 9 million AAV to pay him. Nobody is asking Buffalo to give him away but they haven’t been able to trade him so far so it only makes sense to raise the asking price.

If Armstrong is serious about obtaining him via trade, just be patient. Buffaloe’s strategy doesn’t seem very sound.

Oh ok. So 2 days ago the word was Adams was discouraged at what was being offered for Byram so now the price goes up. Ok…

I mean, Adams is welcome to ask for whatever he wants but he’s unlikely to get it. His asset loses value by the day as they get closer to that arbitration hearing.

I'm curious as to why that would be. If Bo's camp picks 2 years, he's on a deal until UFA. They can trade him anytime. The way I understand is that Byram's agent is known for taking players to UFA and the noise was he wants to be paid like a #1 with no health issues. I think that if his price for a long term deal reflected his production and health issues, he'd probably be traded. I could be (and probably are) wrong on this.

This guy was traded for middle 6 center 2 years ago. Price tag is down and he wants out of Buffalo. This is the type of deal right up Army’s alley. Adam’s will fold eventually

I feel so bad for Sabres fans. It has been one clueless GM after another. Despite having a lot of great, young talent, they just can’t get over the hump and now young guys are bailing out. Blues fans should be thankful…..Army has made some mistakes, but overall, the Blues organization is top notch.
