Eichel, Reinhart, Risto are gone...Zegras, Tkachuk, Korpisalo are in.

I think this is pretty fair.

Anaheim, we are taking cap back with Henrique and get Zegras, a good goalie prospect in Dostal, and Lundestrom as a B list prospect. You get your first this year since it is high but we get two 1sts in the next two years. You also get to keep Drysdale. If the complaint is you think you're giving up too much remember you're getting Eichel (a top elite C in the league) with term and a great contract. You get a 1st line C for years to come. That's a pretty good foundation to build around. Unfortunately, the Sabres organization is a dumpster fire and we don't know how to do anything right. We are taking prospects that are unproven with raw poetntail we have to groom (and we are not good at that). Hopefully Anaheim will make Jack happy again.

I am already expecting Calgary fans to be mad about the Tkachuk trade but my logic is you earn a 1st line C, a 3rd, and a starting young NHL ready defensemen with control of all contract signings. We take one player with 7 million cap hit that is due a new contract soon.

Seattle takes Okposo in the expansion. Sabres trade miller, 6th and 7th to Seattle for Seattle's 7th for taking Okposo.

All UFA, RFA signings are my take. What I believe their worth is. If you believe they are off then dont worry the sabres still have 20,075,000 left. Can always add a little more here and there.
