What do you think

Love Nichushkin but if BUF wants to give him 6x6.5M good luck. But in all honesty the last thing BUF should be doing is adding high dollar veteran contracts that are taking ice time from young guys.

Adams already said that he’s not going to make moves to box out their younger players. The only move they will make is probably add a 4th line center.

or ugh deals with veteran for one year contract

No I don’t think they will do that. I just assume they want to add a 4C, they are already horrible at Face-offs, Girgensons and Asplund are better at the wing that at center, either Mittelstadt or olofsson gets traded to make room for Peterka.

Ugh, please no. The negligible hit of having Girgs play 4C is far offset by keeping Mitts or Olofsson around. Face-offs are not important. Some of the best teams in the league have atrocious FO%, because the outwork and outplay their opponents anyways and get back possession quickly.

Also I love Peterka, but preemptively trading away Olofsson to make room for him would be really dumb. VO hurt every joint in one arm, didn't score a single goal for almost half the season until it healed, and is still on pace to put up 20+ goals. Like come on.
