Description
I have no clue how to value Bottom 6 guys like Faksa and Jenner, I feel like I over paid but let me know.

I also think that Kevyn Adams gave us the hint that he's going to go aggressive this offseason so he'll be trading some prospects and signing to the cap.

Skinner to Toronto I feel like makes more sense than to buy him out and he would have his NMC because its where he grew up.

Hagel has been linked to being a potential trade candidate if the Lightning are going to try and resign Stamkos. Ostlund should make his debut after the 24-25 season and they get the 11th overall pick to start replacing the expensive talent Tampa might lose this offseason.

The rule of thumb for determining a viable Jenner proposal for Sabres fans is as follows:
Ask yourself "Would this package be acceptable for Alex Tuch?"
If NO: It is not acceptable for Jenner.
If YES: It might be acceptable for Jenner, but don't hold your breath.

The reasons why y'all wouldn't want to trade Tuch are largely the same reasons why we don't want to trade Jenner. And when I say "we", I include not just fellow Jackets fans, but also CBJ ownership, the CBJ front office, and Jenner himself - repeatedly, publicly, and explicitly.

Not even close to getting Jenner. He's the team's captain, all-time games played leader, current 1C (even though he really shouldn't be), has paced for 30g each of the last 3 seasons, he has 2 years left on a contract that is far below market value, he expressly wants to remain in Columbus, and he has the backing of ownership and management. It would take a ridiculous package to get him out of Columbus despite trading him being in their best interest for bolstering their future group.

I agree this is not enough for Jenner, but tuch is ALOT better than Jenner. No comparison

How so for Toronto? They give up a late 1st for a cheap scorer and a 2nd

Tampa might need 1 more prospect or 1st round pick but I think thats a fair trade.
