Would Sabres consider any of this

Created by: OutCold13
Team: 2021-22 Buffalo Sabres
Initial Creation Date: Apr. 18, 2021
Published: Apr. 20, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Messing around where my nose doesn't belong on this one so trades may be a disaster.
I'm always looking to dump Rask for the Wild and it is a low risk I reward trade for Sabres if it works and helps Skinner.
The Eichel trade might be total trash as well.
All these trades would be after the Expansion Draft.

Trades

  1. Rask, Victor ($2,000,000 retained)
Additional Details:
Low risk move for Sabres to see if they can get Skinner going.
MIN
  1. 2022 7th round pick (BUF)
Additional Details:
Pick is conditional on Rask playing 50 percent of the games.
2.
BUF
  1. Gibson, John
  2. Lindholm, Hampus
  3. 2021 2nd round pick (ANA)
  4. 2022 2nd round pick (ANA)
Additional Details:
This trade will probably anger both sides. Not even sure Anaheim needs Eichel but Ducks have assets I think the Sabres could really use. So if you really hate the trade then tell me how you would fix it.

the anaheim trade is flat out awful. i would fix it by deleting it and this thread and possibly your account.

skinner is on a 50 point pace since he moved with reinhart. he is going.

Little harsh. I won't report you because I am a man, but next time take your pills before you get so upset.

So you don't like Gibson, and would not agree that good goaltending would fix many of Sabres problems, or perhaps it's Lindholm?
I know Lindholm has 1 year left after this one so Adams would have to be reasonably sure he would be willing to re-sign, but think how much his presence could help Dahlin.

Neither of those players or even both of them combined come close to eichel

Sabres won't be getting a player back who is a Eichel level player. That's why the supposed ask is rumored to be the equivalent of 4 sts I'm sure he doesn't mean late 1sts either. I mean maybe Sabres get lucky and McDavid, Matthews, or maybe a Pettersson demand a trade, but that's the only chance Sabres get a player close to his level.
Always a chance that everything has been blown out of proportion and Eichel doesn't want out, but you gotta wonder why the rumors are out there then.

This package makes no sense for eichel. I am not a fan of paying big assets to acquire or cap space to retain a goalie. We have young d, some were fairly high picks, and a very good chance the bpa when we draft this year is a d. Our forwards are a bigger question, as our #1c will likely be reinhart/cozens/mittelstadt if eichel gets moved with no center coming back. So now we would be forced to rebuild, which further diminishes the need for lindholm or gibson. If you arent giving zegras, you are looking at a package of multiple first round picks, and not just picks in the very weak 21 class. Deals have to make sense for both sides, and i can see anaheim balking, but i have no use for moving a franchise center (and leaving a crater in the roster) for a win now starting goalie and vet d, with nothing but a few 2nds to show for it.
