Not a Sabres fan, but was looking into how this team might be able to build a playoff team. Persoanlly think that more than anything they need to solve their goal tending and bottom six depth.

TBL puts you on the do not call list. Hunwick did not even play last year, the cap hit is 1.75. TB buys out Cally at a hit of 2.66. We keep Cirelli and you keep the picks.

Lool did not know about Hunwick. Tried to make adjust the trade to make it worth more for Tampa. I think this trade is closer. Pilut is a good 5-6 defensive option and is still fairly young. The picks are a 2nd and a 3rd, which a strong drafting team like Tampa could find some gems with. Also I a depth goalie in Ullmark and a depth winger in Thompson, who has 1st round pedigree and could still turn things around. Still not sure on the value, but I think Cirelli would be a fantastic add to Buffalo. I really think the player could breakout with a bigger role. In my lineup he would eventually take over as 2nd line center over Turris.

I don't think he is on the block. Cooper stated he could be the next Bergeron. You are right, he is going to be really good. Would love to move Stamkos to left wing and have him take one timers all day. Point Cirelli will be a strong one-two center combination.

Loool true, Sabres and playoffs together just feel wrong. I think with Eichel and Dahlin they have the major pieces.

I think ideally Tampa wouldn't trade him either, but with Point getting close to 8-9 million (likely) I think it would be really hard to fit a player like Cirelli into the fold. Especially if he has a 65-75 point year (which is my prediction for him this season). He could easily ask for 6 million plus and under those circumstance I think Tamapa would kinda be forced to explore its trade options. Honestly as a Canucks fan I think he would be an amazing offer sheet target next year.

I agree. Over the next two years Killorn, Johnson, Palat, Gourde all need to be traded. Callahan a given for trade or buy out this year. There is the possibility of trading Cirelli for defense on the right side.
