I’m down
First, great conversations.
Second, I live in Buffalo and vacation in NYC, and lived in NJ a 25 min ride away from Midtown.
Third, Both cities have a lot to offer, it all depends on your desires. Among many of the plusses of Buffalo the largest is the difference in the cost of living.
Even with the higher state taxes in NYS, the cost of living in Buffalo is so low, that it actually makes it one of the most affordable 2nd life style https://gavingroup.ca/lifestyle-rankings/
I did not expect to see Buffalo ranked this high for best places to go to watch a hockey game ranked 6th https://robe-trotting.com/best-nhl-hockey-cities-to-visit/
OK, I got that out of my system.
OMG, I would take that for Jack in a heart beat.
I could not imagine a better top pairing for the next 5 years than Trouba and Dahlin.
Trouba will be be 27 yo until the end of February and only 32 at the end his contract.
Then I get Kakko
and Chytil!
Plus two first round picks and a second.
As a Sabre fan what is not to like about this trade.
Unfortunately this trade will never happen.
EDIT
This trade punches every ticket except GK.
RW, Center, RHD and draft picks.
