Don’t really want hinostroza, but i would do this to get rid of ullmark.

Sweeneys mistake helps him get rid of his other mistakes.

I'm curious, what is it that you and other Boston fans don't like about Ullmark? I haven't paid any attention to him at all this season - is he performing badly or is it just Rask will be ready soon and Swayman is the future? I always enjoyed him when he was here, but he was just hurt too often.

It’s a combination of both that.

First off, he’s playing very poorly. Swayman is the clear cut number one to me, but due to the contract, when Rask comes back, they’ll have to send him to Providence. That sends a really bad message in my opinion.

It was a really weird panic move giving him the term. I would have liked the idea if it was 1x5. But, sadly, he’s playing bad, his contract is hampering the team short and long term. Get him gone.

Ullmark is, ya know, fine. Obviously hes better than dell and tokarski. I thought ullmark took less than the sabres offered to play in boston, was that ever confirmed? He didnt leave on bad terms, i think he wanted to play on a team that had a look at the playoffs, not a rebuilding team i thought.

Supposedly we weren't willing to offer 4 years.

Isles would wive Bjork.

2nd for Bellows would be the trade, Isles are not going to want a bottom 6 forward that would be sent to the minors.

Makes sense to me. I don't blame him for leaving Buffalo, not only to chase a bigger contract but to win. I think there are a lot of signs for it making sense for each side in some capacity.

DeBrusk's value is really hard for me to gauge. He has been underperforming, but has potential. Plus there isn't a goalie they would know better. The draft pick compensation could certainly be tweaked but I would love to at least get something for those expiring deals.

Sounds like buffalo had the biggest offer on the table. The Sabres are in a tough spot. I don’t blame anyone for wanting out.

No way would Adams make any kind of trade for Ullmark. That contract is crazy.
