That would actually be an overpay for mcdavid

Buffalo says no to edmonton trade IMO
I think that Mittlestadt and reinhart plus a first isnt bad but then your taking a cap dum adding 2 frst round picks on that and tage who has value and could end up being decent, pilut who looks to be a pretty good FA pick up for BUF and Ristolianen who is a good defender no matter what people say and if given a btter role could probley play much better.... i would say no deal

Edmonton laughs and hangs up

Well, you're certainly not going to get the best player to lace up skates in the past 20 years with an underpayment. The point is to pay a lot to get him. With any trade involving Connor McDavid, the team acquiring 97, wins the trade IMO. Maybe I did go a little high, but the point is to make EDM say yes. Maybe I can take out Tage and a first. Or maybe take out Tage and Pilut and leave the firsts. Most every AGM where one acquires McDavid is an underpay. Most every AGM where one acts as Oilers GM trades away McDavid with an overpay in return. As a Sabres fan, I want to see how far I can push, how much I can give up and not feel terrible. It's easy to trade Sobotka and Scandella for a 2C in AGM, It's harder to trade away 3 of your past 5 first round picks. I certainly understand where you guys are coming from and fully expected fellow Sabre fans to quickly call this an overpay.

The changes start with taking out one of the main pieces, either reino or Casey.

Mcdavid goes from a team where he and Draisatl and RNH are the only forwards that should be in the NHL to another team where its basically just Mcdavid, Eichel on forward, Poor Mcdiddly. From one perennial loser to another

You guys drafted 1st in 2016, 4th in 2015, 8th in 2014 and havent won anything in 50 years

And the Sabres have won... what exactly? lol both teams suck, Sabres just suck more.

The last time you made the finals there were only 6 teams

Eichel hughes dahlin?

Dahlin is not a forward last time I watched the Sabres, could be wrong tho.

Correct again! How many Cup banners are hanging in Buffalo? Right. Like I said, both teams suck. I'm not saying the Leafs are good, I can accept the fact we are not. But, we are better than Buffalo. Have fun golfing in a week, we'll meet you on the course in three weeks.

Lol dude get out of here. Dahlin is better at forward than 3/4s of the Edmonton roster.

Yeah no sh*t. Doesn't mean it factors in to my comment at all. When you're looking at forward depth you typically don't factor in defenseman...
