Risto is the wrong D to bring to this team and horrible choice to pair with Rielly

Dunno about that. This team is full offense. Risto could be good in a team like that.

Furthermore, for a return like that there's not too much decent enough RHDs of that age available.

Risto had the worst plus/minus in the league this past season

BUF was also the worst team by far in 2019. He could do a nice bounceback in a better team.

Pretty sure that's Ottawa and then L.A.
Is Buffalo 5 worst?

Talking about the calendar year of 2019. From Jan 1st, they have been the worst team with only 12 wins and 28 points. Even OTT had 30 points in that timespan.

Even Sabres fans think he is horrible, we need a defensive D man.

I’d love that BUF trade

Also justify 7 million 3rd line C who I dont think is a C
Most would say 4.5 is too much much less 7

I don't decide Nylander's contract. They use him as 3C in the playoffs, which is why I slotted him there.

I actually like Nylander better as a centre, and have pushed the idea of him at 3 C with Johnson and Kappy. And then push Kadri into the top 6 on the left side. I think that lil adaptation could maybe solve alot problems.

Now, gotta wait and see if they're all still here next season to try that permutation.. something tells me they won't though. Some kinda shakeup will happen

I thought at times he played well at C and other times made me wonder what the blue hell was he doing.

Purely from a numbers stand point, your 3rd line C cant be making 7 million.

He'd be a 2RW is they move Kapanen instead of Kadri. Nylander would take either one's place.
