*If NTC gets waived. They dont have to resign Sutter, they just tell him that. It's not like Benning has to show up to Sutter's Christmas parties

At a glance I saw Kaden ****er. And was willing to trade anyone to get him just so I could buy the jersey.

I thought Sutter was Boeser 😂😂, still not great for the Canucks, but no where near as bad (I also thought how is going to BUF saving him lol)

Was good with the 1st two trades, I'd actually just keep Sutter though.

Trade 3 however is pretty awful. Trading both Thompson and Risto for a 4th liner and a 2nd rounder is a travesty. Miles Wood at best can be a 3W, Thompson could be a top 6 guy still and that's not including Risto for a 2nd round pick which is laughable.

Trade 4 is a mixed bag as I really have no clue how dealing away both Johanssons for Helm and a prospect help us exactly.

Thompson is an AHLer, i have 0 faith he'll be a top 6 forward. I dont know why Buffalo fans keep thinking that, just cause he had an ok stint to start this year, then to get hurt and not play pro hockey for who knows how long now. Its like we're hanging on to the thinniest shread of hope that the ROR deal isn't an absolute fleecing. Thompsons dad is staff in NJ and his brother is a prospect there, they can be a great AHL line together. The trade is Wood and a high 2nd for Risto and a throw in.

Helm was one of the best PK forwards last year on one of the worst teams in NHL history. The Sabres PK sank them. Add in nearly 50% retention then a 3rd and a much more green goalie prospect for one of the AHL allstar goalies last year, something Detroit needs and it gives Johansson a great chance at an NHL career instead of playing 2nd fiddle to UPL

The 2nd one is a good explanation

The top one still leaves us getting pretty much nothing for Risto and in that case I would rather just keep him.

Same but cap, had to move him, and I like Borgen he can step in. I feel like this is what we should expect as a return. Mid 6 player and mid to high 2nd

Well you could buy a Hamilton Bulldogs Jersey and then it doesn't matter who he plays for.

I'd demand more, Miles Wood isn't a Mid-6 player for starters he's a Bot-6 at best and likely only a 4th liner.
