            5M x 5YR gets it done. Unless TOR lets Freddy walk and signs a cheap G so they can do 5x5

            NYR says no to that Eichel deal.. Remove okposo and theres a possibilty but still unlikely. Jack is stayin in BUF for a few more years

            This just destroys the team and guarantees more losing for the next 3 years.
            They were playing very good before the outbreak. And I'm sure them being pissed they were playing NJ flowed into the game.
            Literally no reason to drastically change

            I'd still wager he won't be interested. He's 29, so he'll be looking for a chance to win as he enters his 30's and there will be better opportunities than Buffalo. Like his hometown team he currently plays for. He's already said he isn't looking for top dollar and would be willing to take a discount if he can get term.

            I totally glossed over that trade, it definitely is way too much to give up.

            1st + strong prospect is quite fair, another thing is that Nashville probably would not want to part Tomasino and I would understand them.

            It’s NSH’s top offensive prospect, and I don’t see NSH making the playoffs, so that’s probably a lottery pick. And I doubt they could even sign Hall anyway. Just the wrong team.

            Cause the Dahlin deal is a bridge/arbitration deal.

            Nashville is in the bottom 10 in the league for points%. They aren’t giving up their top prospect and a lottery 1st for Hall. Even if we were doing well... Hall had a choice to come here in the off-season. Poile went after him and he chose Buffalo. Clearly we aren’t his choice of places to play. That’s a lot to pay for someone who didn’t want to be here and likely doesn’t stick around

            Dahlin is not getting more than that on a bridge deal...he still needs to prove more over the next two years in order to get any big contract. sabres are not going to sign any more long contracts used on potential.

            Dahlin is not getting more than that on a bridge deal...he still needs to prove more over the next two years in order to get any big contract. sabres are not going to sign any more long contracts used on potential.


            Dahlin has proven enough to get a long term contract and he'll still get more than that on a bridge. Put down the black pills

            Its simply bad business and general managing to not go to arbitration for a bridge deal, to retain him as a RFA,

            With the current economy, you really think he's going to get more than that? He would be lucky to get that much.

            4 x 5 and he stays an RFA

            Love all the cocky Rangers fans saying no to this deal. News flash Buffalo is not trading Eichel.
