    This is actually...not terrible? I mean I have a few issues: one of them being my continued confusion why Buffalo fans want to get rid of Dahlin as part of their 'rebuild' - He's barely 20! And defencemen usually take longer to develop. I don't understand not keeping him around. Additionally, I get where you're going with Parise's contract, but I'm not sure if it's that valuable of an offset. Also - WAY too much money for Cole...you could be getting a better defenceman for that money

    I'm not sure why Seattle would take one of the leagues worst players at 2+ mil for free

    sabres are currently winning without eichel and with an AHL goalie due to a coach who simply plays to his players strengths and the thought is to trade everyone?

    how about fielding a team with an NHL quality goalie tandem and one of the best players in the entire league in eichel and seeing what we have when a soccer executive isn't brain farting all over the ice.

    It's so great to see Bracco & Fedun signed definitely two of the best players outside the NHL currently and for that cap hit I mean heck yes to both 🎉

    The returns for Eichel / Dahlin here are just... ugh

    Still elite assets despite this rough season

    Hope they're not conflated with team futility

    When attempting to evaluate the merits of a trade, including economic impact, you have to look at the underlying contracts. Parise may have a huge cap hit for twice as long as Okposo, but he's paid $10 million over four years whereas Okposo is paid $8 million. Now factor in the undeniable truth that he's twice the player Okposo is and you see that Buffalo would be lucky to get a third with Parise, never mind Rask, never mind the first. And that's not even taking into consideration his NMC.

    This can't be serious or reality.

    Dream on dude

    Wild aren't accepting Kyle O contract

    Parise is still good , & will never waive

    Rask sucks but us a million times better than Kyle O. Wild don't need to get rid of rask

    One last thing, get real.
