Vegas fans... Let me start by saying I think you are nuts to trade Gusev. Would this appeal to you guys? Hell, I'll even add because I think he's that good. Or take Reaves. Give me your thoughts please.

I don't care. Gusev has star potential. If Botts passes and he goes to a division rival on the cheap I will be over the edge with Botts. Make an offer they can't refuse. Worth the risk 100% imo (and I know there's quite a bit of risk).

So is what I laid out plausible? Seems to be more than what other teams fans are giving you in other ACGM's. I can see GM's being afraid to give an unprotected first. Hell, I'll take Reaves back or add from our end.

I would do anything other than trade him. They can shed cap other ways. It's possible but will cost assets. Assets I would give up to keep him if I were them.

Maybe they dont want to give a blank check to 27 year old with 0 NHL games

That's exactly it but I'm taking the risk and not thinking twice. He's legit. KHL would be my biggest concern, but I'm still swinging for the fences.

Again, I am not questioning your interest in him, I am answering your point about why Vegas would move him.

No I get it, it still doesn't add up to me. I wouldn't be pleased if my GM was trading away that talent. I guess I'm more criticizing their thought process than anything.

Yea, I dont think there is much to criticize out of Vegas. You know the team that built a cup finalist out of thin air?

Absolutely, it's a different world for Buffalo fans though, which is all I have to go off of... *sigh*
