Description

My Buffalo Sabres roster for next season. Changes begin this week leading up to the trade deadline.
2019-2020 Trade Deadline
Trade – J. Vesey for picks
Trade – C. Sheary for picks
Trade – J. Larsson for picks
Trade – M. Frolik for picks
Trade – E. Rodgiguez for picks
Nothing special here, just get the best pick possible for all pending free agents.
Trade – R. Ristolanien and any number of non-1st and 2nd round picks for V. Torcheck.
Rumors are that Florida is looking for help on Defense. Buffalo needs to jump on this before it’s too late. Ristolanien is a very good player, however his time in Buffalo has been over for quite some time. It’s a win for both teams

Offseason
Sign – M. Hoffman. With trading for Torcheck, he may be able to recruit Hoffman into coming to Buffalo.
Sign – A. Galchenyuk. After adding Torckeck and Hoffman to our top 6, free agents might see Buffalo becoming a place to play. Galchenyuk can slide into the 3rd line center position and hopefully excel not having to play against top competition.
Sign – P. Maroon. Vet who knows what it takes to win, something I believe that Buffalo has been missing since the early 2010s.
Trade - C. Hutton. Could possibly help in SJS?
Sign - J. Markstrom. Upgrade

Markstrom stays in Vancouver for 3 x 4 and once again Tallon wants a top pairing LD for Trocheck they're set a RD so Ristolainen is a no go.

Florida wants a solid top pairing lhd to play with ekblad, that’s the reason behind his name out therr

Risto doesn’t cut it, need to add more if you are going to get panthers to move away from their target

Except the Sabres are still in Buffalo, people from Buffalo don't even want to live in Buffalo (that's why they say things like "I'm from upstate NY")

If you actually talked to people who know buffalo and live here they will tell you how much they love it. Theres a reason that players who retire here stay here and many come back to live after there careers are over (sabres and bills)
