Multiple reports say the Buffalo Sabres have already turned down at least one trade offer for defenceman Bowen Byram this week. Despite that rejection, interest from other teams continues. The Philadelphia Flyers are reported among the clubs monitoring Byram, along with the St. Louis Blues, Boston Bruins, and Toronto Maple Leafs. The reports describe Byram as believing he is ready to operate as a true top defenseman, which is part of why teams are said to be pursuing him. While the outlets do not provide full details of the proposals, the common element is that Buffalo’s initial refusal has not ended trade discussions. The coverage frames the situation as ongoing trade rumour activity rather than a confirmed deal, with multiple teams continuing to “circle” Byram. Until a trade is finalized and the teams publicly confirm the terms, the extent of each club’s offer and whether Buffalo will reconsider remain unclear.
