Team: 2020-21 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Oct. 20, 2020

Published: Oct. 20, 2020

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Buffalo goes all-in on this year, and brings a superstar and MVP candidate back to his hometown. The reason the return is not "potential MVP" level is that 10.5Mx3 left on his contract and could *potentially be declining

All of the top 3 lines have someone that can drive the play, and I don't know who's stopping PP1.

Hawks get Cozens to immediately boost their rebuild, Zemgus to send somewhere else for picks, and Risto to either trade away or be a very useful partner to Boqvist in the future

That is one steaming pile of poo for Kane. No offense to Cozens but wow. Probably the worst package I've seen yet. And no chance is Kane waiving to go to that tire fire of a franchise.

Now who’s their starter? Subban? Gross. Would that be one nasty top 9 though. If it all clicks I mean.

The thing is, unless it’s a “potential MVP” type of offer, Kane stays in Chicago, regardless of the chance he declines in play over the next 3 seasons. Cozens is great, but it’s not going to be enough for Kaner

Is Rasmus Ristolainen that much worse than I thought he was? I thought he was a pretty good top 4 guy?

If they don’t win the cup first year Hall is gone since you put him on the 3rd line and they probably still struggle to make the playoffs anyways with that d and goalie
