Quoting: Jdfitz77
Pretty reasonable moves imo
The contracts all look fair.
Girgensons has more value than a fifth, and Eakin can be buried in Rochester.
Eakin does not need to be moved for nothing when the team had $26,000,000 cap space.
Sure Miller to the Krakens.
DiPietro or Pilut have at least the value of a fifth and if you do not like Lekkas, and Nyberg just do not offer them contracts.
The difference between Sam and Yamamoto, is more than a first not just 2021 4th round pick (EDM) plus 2021 7th round pick (EDM)
Yamamoto is more of a prospect than NHL certainty at this point with only one stretch of 27 games in which he looked really good
This past year, not so much.
I know most people only look at Ristolainen's +/- and not the minutes he plays not the competition he is lined up against, nor that he PK's, hits, PP and scores pts.
He is worth at least a first but considering the GM is Kevyn Adams, you are correct the first is TOO much to expect in return.
Basing on how Hall only returned a second, Kevyn would only ask for a third.
Well what ever for Jack, sure.
Buffalo will not receive his true value.
OK, I RETRACT EVERYTHING I SAID. KEVYN ADAMS IS THE GM, ALL OF THE OTHER GM'S IN THE LEAGUE KNOW HE IS OVER HIS HEAD AND WILL FLEECE HIM.
HE WILL BE LUCKY TO THAT MUCH FOR ANY OF THOSE TRADES.
