Overpayment for rent Toffoli and some weird deal with WPG.


A pick (not a 1st), a B level prospect, and an expiring contract in Sheary (who has never caught on & helps deal with taking on $) for a top 6 RW which the Sabres desperately need is OK imo. I bet LAK fans might even say that's a bad package and hope to get better elsewhere, idk.

I don't think the WPG is too weird. Everyone's valuation of Risto is all over the place, so I know I'll never make anyone happy, but he's not worth Ehlers so I didn't even try here. Lowry and Perrault really help the bottom six imo.

Depth is better all around.


All in all this AGM is an exercise in futility as the Sabres will never make 4 separate trades this year lol but it does go to show a lot of work needs to be done to this roster still.

Then I would just give up the idea with Toffoli and look for other options.

The deal with Winnipeg is frankly bad for Buffalo. I don’t overestimate Risto like some fans, but it doesn’t look very good, I think Perrault still has gunpowder, but he is a player for bottom 6, like Lowry. I do not expect Risto to return Ehlers or a player of this caliber, but at least one player like Roslovic or Virtanen should be in the deal. We mainly need to strengthen our top 6 and, if possible, take someone for bottom 6 with grit.

Toffoli is a rental whose play has been trending downwards every year. I wouldn't give up one of our better prospects like Asplund for him. Maybe like a Erod/Scandella + 2nd?

If you value asplund as a 2nd, and sheary as a 4th (assuming la flips him), that's a pretty generous offer for a rental for a team that is in a free fall and trending towards a top 10 pick. We need help up front, and it can't just be a guy who could do really well if he played with eichel and reinhart, we need somebody who can drive play and finish on the bottom 9.

Not these types of trades. Certainly not Olofsson on the 4th line and giving up that much for Toffoli.
