Bear for the 39th overall pick? Yes please

Bobs NTC and Hornqvist's M NTC kills any deal to the Sabres.

Phillip Myers will almost 100% be bought out. He may be traded to a contender before hand though but because his contract literally gains a team cap space when bought out this year he will very likely.

My guess is that Hornqvist would be retained and flipped so he may waive if he knows his ultimate destination. Agree with Bob though. The only thing that could entice him is if FLA says they are going to bench him in favor of knight and Buffalo promises him the starting job.

I’m pretty sure Florida fans would cut off their right arm before allowing the team to give up Lundell to move Hornqvist and Bobrovsky‘s contracts.

Buffalo declines the Bear trade

Doubt Florida makes the 1st trade

Gee, wait to that gets out to the other Florida players.....Is management telling Bob and the other players. " We don't care if we win by playing the inferior players, all they worry about is contracts and how to "circumvent " NTCs". Certainly different if Knight wins the starting job, but telling Bob in the summer he's "out"....that doesn't fly.

Well, I would do the Florida trade as its proposed here.
