A guaranteed 1st would have to be attached for TK to be involved

Oh boy
I’m a Sabres fan too, so I’m gonna try & go easy on you

First, it’s VERY wishful thinking

And next- even if we could pull these trades off, it doesn’t work moving forward with out Cap
Idk how we afford Hanifin when Power & Dahlin are getting big contracts next year?? And Hanifin on our team making over $6mil is just gonna raise the number for Power

But let’s just say we make it work & fit those defenseman contracts under our Cap
The season after that, we have to come up with $$$ to pay Konecny & Saros, not to mention raises for Quinn & Peterka

And that’s leaving some guys out that we’d 100% have to part with (Mitts, our Captains, Clifton & E.Johnson, etc etc)


It’s just not realistic
This is video game territory with your wishlist here

Comrie isn't any better than Johansson and no chance TB gives him 1.3 in Cap EASY PASS.

We really don't need another LD, and Hanifin isn't really a good partner for either Dahlin or Power. He isn't the best Defensive partner. And really can't see the other Trades going down.

Levi is saros, or what buffalo is hoping levi is, Buffalo is in an interesting place in net, kind of a 6 month window of sink or swim with a 3-headed monster, then possibly a rental to finish year, and bargain hunt a ufa partner for Levi going forward over spending that much players and cap on saros. Best case upl/levi turn into a viable tandem. I wouldn’t go any big ticket items at this point, small money small term to compliment the guys all ready in house. Buffalo going to be an interesting squad this year.
