Insane 3 way trade

Team: 2021-22 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Sep. 5, 2021

Published: Sep. 5, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

This actually isnt bad minus the Contract of Karlsson. Sabres get multiple 1st round pieces that will be on rookie deals to help with cap. Having the two worst contracts in the NHL for 6 years years doesnt sound fun. But we are in another rebuild. After Okposo Girgensons Miller Eakin are gone within the next 2 years that frees up over 12mill in cap alone. Cozens, Eklund and Powers will need extensions obviously before Skinner and Karlsson are up. I think at THAT point we dump picks into getting them off the books. Capitalize Eichs return then worry about Cap (which could increase slightly by then) in 3-4 years. we have the room to keep who we currently have and then some. Worst comes to worst we can bridge Cozens/Power/Eklund until after the two bad contracts are up and then give them a pay day. Until then maximize every deal we can.

Let me know what you think, I'm sure im in the absolute minority here and is open to discuss it.

I added Powers, Quinn, JJP, Eklund and Rosen so you can see the long term on sort of what im talking about.

Captain- Okposo
Ass Capt- Karlsson and Cozens
