Description

With the picks, I’d choose dach, cozens, turcotte or zegras with the 7th overall. With the late picks I’d consider caufield, kaliev, nick robertson, basically a forward with a lot of offensive upside. All the trades are not very realistic but I can see them happening. I didn’t really wanna trade risto but since everyone thinks he’s leaving I put a trade together. Let me know what you think! Don’t just say “those trades suck” give reasoning and feedback and I’ll make a new one, I wanna see a big offensive shakeup this year in buffalo and I like the defence. Luukkonen will be up in like two years and take over the goalie spot so I didn’t bother making a move there.

I'm very confused. Your team name is keep Risto, then you trade him. Then in that trade you trade him for WAY too much. A top prospect, a first, and a very good player who is on a fair contract, though likely larger than his team wants.

Read the description, I just through that trade together. And the title was supposed to be “keep risto?” With a question mark to see what y’all thought. And I put a first in there but a 2nd from buffalo so it’s just like we traded up in the draft, also sheary is a decent player, don’t just ignore him in that trade.

I don’t see why Columbus would make that trade.... we don’t need scandella who’s a dman. If we move another forward out he needs to be replaced by a forward not a defenseman....we are already losing 3 forwards, Wennberg would be the 4th.... plus Scandella would probably not make the team next season. Sorry

Quoting: BCAPP

TB will have to cut so salary to get under the cap. Miller for a pick or a cheap dman is the deal they'd make.

Arz deal is just bad.

I think Columbus drives Wennberg to Buffalo as soon as the playoffs are over...
