Description
Hopefully Adams is aggressive this offseason and makes some bold moves. These trades would be starting points for a discussion involving the players. I'm sure there would be a lot of tweaks needed to make them all work.

Trades
1.
TBL
  1. Rosén, Isak
  2. 2024 1st round pick (BUF)
  3. 2025 2nd round pick (BUF)
Additional Details:
Buffalo most likely has to add to this trade in either prospects or picks. TBL need to clear some space if they want Stamkos back and extend Hedman.
2.
BUF
  1. Couturier, Sean
Additional Details:
Couturier and Tortorella don't seem to mesh.
PHI
  1. Kulich, Jiri
  2. Skinner, Jeff
  3. 2025 1st round pick (BUF)
Additional Details:
Buffalo most likely has to add picks for PHI to take Skinner. Kulich is a grade A prospect and they get an unprotected 1st round pick

Coots contract might be worse than Skinners, and is twice as long my guy.

Adding just Cirelli gives the Sabres cap trouble with a lot of RFA’s in 25-26. If they add players this year it will be cheap short term contracts.

No TB doesn't that's a false Narrative. They go with Rookies and vets making 900 or less
. After dumping Jeannot and Sheary. Seen plenty of ACGMs getting 3+for Jeannot that's a bit high I think . Between a (3-5). I've seen Sheary cost a 3 to dump I don't see it being that expensive considering his bad year most likely had a lot to do with the broken foot he played with since November. I'd say a 4-6. Maybe Dump Perbix for a 3. Bring up Crozier.

The Sabres have prospects that have came up and are coming up from Rochester. Having the right mix of veteran players and youth playing the right hockey within the salary cap is the goal. Move a player with no conditions for better talent and cap space.

Agree here, Cirelli and Cernak do not have to be traded to make space. I think only Cirelli or Cernak get traded if JBB can get a valuable player back with low cap hit and other good assets (picks/prospects). No way valued players go out for just prospects. Goal is to still make deep playoff runs.
