      All that cap space used on taking other team cap dumps, does not put Sabres closer to playoffs

      That's just to hit the floor.

      You signed P.K. Subban, put Dadonov in the lineup and changed both goalies. I thought that was it.

      Dadonov doesnt have negative value. They most certainly can get a 3 out of him pretty easily.

      Need to pick better goalies because that doesnt get you more than like .903%

      This probably isnt a playoff team tbh

      Buffalo also wins the Shane Wright sweepstakes.

      That's a great haul for Hill. Sharks accept

      This is not the route I'd go

      We have so much cap space before we need to resign the big guns (Ras, Power, Tommer etc) that overpaying for a goalie isn't a bad option at all.

      Don't know how much better Dadanov or Kassian make the team, Subban I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot stick unless he signs for dirt cheap

      Getting Shane Wright is a nice thought, but realistically we're picking 7-9th

      That would be a great haul for Hill.

      Honestly I know his numbers are a bit sketchy but given a decent environment I think Hill could really thrive

      Then it's even worse. By winning Shane Wright sweepstakes, you can easily spend on goalie and RD, without having to worry about cap space for next 3 years.
