Zibanejad and Lafreniere

Created by: Skyraider112
Team: 2020-21 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Sep. 29, 2020
Published: Sep. 29, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Bob McKenzie has heard chatter among his very reliable channels that Zibanejad is on the market. Buffalo is the top team interested in acquiring him. Instead of recognizing these "rumors" as pure malarkey, Bob takes this as gospel and decides to tweet about it. Buffalo fans quickly jump on the hype train and create tens of thousands of AGM's where they continually trade for Zibanejad. Lafreniere is also on the block too because he will be a good player and therefore is free game for a team that can give up the necessary pieces.

That's whay I don't get, most people agree you get laf plus, not like eichel is being dealt for scrubs in most trades.

It's a secret to me, not once has he said he doesn't like Buffalo or playing for the Sabres. He has said he doesn't like losing, any team can lose, any team can win. The logic behind Eichel rumors is just fanbases wishing desperately that they had a young player as good as Jack, he isn't going anywhere

No, I'm pretty sure the logic behind Eichel rumors is Bob Mackenzie sharing what he's heard...

Based on the obnoxious trade proposals by Rangers fans, I’d say this isn’t enough value going to the Sabres. Maybe add panarin and rangers get okposo or Skinner
