By the time this stupid virus is done, the city will be at 15% unemployment. It would be a tragedy if botterill is still employed as the gm.

I think this team is close to playoffs. You need a starting goaltender though. Maybe a deal for Murray or georgiev? Would be good 1a options. I would also try to move Montour for an lhd. Maybe to Toronto in a deal for dermott and a peice.

If I’m buffalo I’m at least considering using that first on askarov. You can use the 2nd to draft a future top 6 forward but they need a goalie

I believe Ullmark is a starter. I would want Montour on the ride side or even trade him for a forward.

They cant pay another GM NOT to work for them if they are going to resume construction of their superyacht

This team is still missing experience. Like way too young and no one has any experience of a deep playoff run. Trade for a guy like Statsny or Eric Staal
