No comment on the roster, but it's not about making him happy. Its about being competitive and trying to win. Who wants to be on a team that is not competitive year in and year out

That's why I put this roster together. I think it would be pretty competitive. Who do you feel should be removed?

Ullmarks good enough at goal i don't think sabres need johnson or anderson.
That hall signing must come with a pregame bj from the gm clause or something.
The nashville deal is interesting but doesn't really make sense for either team, nashville has right wingers buffalo has rienhart.
Tage thompsons probably gonna gonna be a rwing not center asplund or lazar would be there. But hey, i love miracles.
Can't believe dadonov and hall are taking the same contract, do you really think dadonov gets 6mil.

If you really want to make Jack smile, trade him to a competent team.

I was more so just setting an amount aside to see where I got with the cap. Maybe it a 5/7 split instead of 6/6. Again not a BUF fan so I don't get to see their prospects/youth like I do with NYR. Just liked the "Blank slate" roster.

What do you think he is signing for? more than 7?

Only a few teams will have that kind of cap space

I think that's a good deal for NSH -- they need top 6 help and Ekholm is the most expendable of the big 3. Also helps their expansion draft issues. But that's a big jump in $$, so I wonder what NSH is looking to do in terms of that -- sounds like they're cutting salary so maybe that kills any type of deal like this regardless of value.

Was just trying to get you an upgrade on RD while keeping a solid G. In that deal TOR also opens 500K to their already amount of $ to sign a 1st pairing RD to give a proper 1-4D.. Just thinking big picture

if the leafs wanted an upgrade, they wouldnt want Risto. he's legitimatly one of the worst defensive defenders in the NHL and he doesnt score near enough to compensate and his contract suuuuuuuucks.

At 6? I’m sure maybe half the league is interested and can make that work buffalo Winnipeg and those places have to overpay by a few mill to try and get players like that to play for them

So above I had mentioned Dadonov at 5 and Hall at 7. I don't feel Hall is worth 8 or more but thats just me. There was also cap room left to fill the voids if needed.

I agree probably not worth more than 8 but like I said buffalo isn’t a go to spot really and hall wants to win now buffalo isn’t really the spot
