Description

I think Buffalo needs some kind of stability in goal. They've been so bad lately. Fleury's attitude and great play might just help turn the culture in there for the kids like Cozens, Mittlestadt, Pekka-lukkonen, Dahlin, Reinhart etc.

Crazy big trade but I think both team benefit even though there are a lot of moving pieces

The Sabres arent adding anything to that trade. If Hague was Krebs and/or they can work in Karlsson then maybe

Whoa what the last AGM I commented on proposed this exact trade like every single piece was identical 😳 but I rate this lower due to the Fleury preamble

He's not some magical being

- lovely person yes absolutely

- impressive G in his longevity

- not remotely a HOFer

- seems like a good mentor but he's only 1 person

MAF would probably retire before playing the last year of his contract in the train wreck that is BUF.
