Botts should be fired if he makes that trade, should probably be fired anyway

Aren't Sabres fans pretty high on Pilut though?

Subban's contract is an anchor at this point, can't see him helping the Sabres much, they need wingers and a 2C, defense isn't their issue.

That makes 0 sense and Buffalo would riot. I would like proof that Friedman said it

NJ had interest in Buffalo's dmen according to Friedman, but it'll be a forward coming back. Depending on who theyre asking for could be one of Zajac Zacha or Palmieri that Botts would be asking for

Risto is very overrated. I get Subban is struggling, but Risto isn't any better

Risto may be one of the most overrated players in the NHL. hes a player where his perceived value is much higher than his on ice ability. he should've been moved years ago. Even though subban has struggled the last two seasons, hes still leaps and bounds better. compare here: https://public.tableau.com/profile/bill.comeau#!/vizhome/SKATR2019-2020/SKATR

For a brief moment I thought that this rumor might be credible, but then I saw the other three trades . . .

If this is true, it’s likely futures/ cap space move for NJ, especially if they really would rather have McCabe or Pilut.

Botterill seems to like this kind of deals, taking on big or bad deals to acquire talent...:he did it with Sheary (Hunwick), Scandella (Pominville), and In the ROR deal (Berglund and Sobotka)

But I’d have to imagine a forward from NJ would be apart of the trade.

Subban is still a decent possession driver and I think I still better in his own end than Ristolainen

If Botterill is offered Palmieri for Ristolainen, he should jump on that faster than I would on an offer to escort Renee Zellweger to the Academy Awards.

I've always felt Subban was quite overrated, does some of the dumbest dumb$hit stuff out there.

he was always a polarizing figure. couldn't deny his offensive ability though. he was one of the best D in the league at driving play for many years. Hes taken a hit recently. I thought he'd bounce back on New Jersey but that clearly didn't happen
