Have to do Something

Created by: melloni17
Team: 2019-20 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Aug. 3, 2019
Published: Aug. 3, 2019
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I think this team could be competitive. By retaining salary for only 1 season makes some of these trades remotely possible, that compiled with contracts buried instead of buy outs make it less painful on the team next season.

He does have value, you are correct. What are teams really offering? I cant see any team offering a 2C which is what we need or even a legit top 6 player. Botts is going to have a hard time moving him for real value. At this point there is no room on the roster for him and Jarkiharju and Bogosian.

So you agree that Risto has value, but you fail to see that Wennberg is a cap dump at this point. He can't score goals, he's not especially good in his own end, and he just came off a year where he put up 25 points in a full season. He might be able to turn things around and be a 3C, but at this point his 5 million dollar cap hit for the next 4 years is a huge burden. If the main peices are going to be Wennberg and Risto, Columbus needs to retain a million and add a prospect

Wennberg and Risto both have lousy numbers. Ristos worsr plus minus in the league for the past how many seasons do NOT increase his trade value what so ever. Wennberg needs a change of scenery. The basis for the trade is there, maybe picks added or whatever needs to be

How is RHD a need for Columbus? Also as a Leafs fan and not a fan of Risto, I can tell you he has more value than that.
