First offer I've seen on here for Andersson that Calgary would probably accept. Fixes issues with center depth, lack of right shot forwards and top 6 size. Signed long term too for what's likely less money than Andersson will get in 2026 on his next contract.

U can’t be serious w those trades ??

Swapping out 2 top6 Centers for RD just doesn’t make much sense to me

Who would’ve thought a top prospect on another team complaining about ice time would unhinge someone this much? Dude. You have absolutely lost it over Jiricek. Go touch grass.

It works for Calgary. Although, Buffalo may not want both trades at the same time.

It's Bold.

Cozens was really good last Night, lot of bad puck luck for him. Sabres should be able to get either one of those players without using Tage or Cozens. Think we match better with Calgary as a trade partner though. Columbus and the Sabres are kinda strong in the same prospect areas other than RD.

Cozens all year has had real bad puck luck, and not getting to the areas he scored from last year.

That is cozens though. He is a slightly more talented girgensons. Just like girgs, has no sense for burying the puck. He is mike Grier 3.0

So the 31 he buried last year was a slightly more Talented Girgensons. Interesting Comparison

I mean, Obviously they aren't trading their top 2 centers. There is enough prospect depths to do this without moving roster players.

Yeah, Buffalo has the prospects to make the trade happen without their top line center, which is obviously Calgary's biggest need (for the last 30 years). After all, natural 1Cs and 1RDs are the hardest positions to fill.

I don't see Calgary trading Anderson this year, but they wouldn't turn down this trade (obviously)

Actually no Calgary won't be moving Andersson unless they get one of those offers that just can't be refused and those are about the only two players the Sabres have that are good enough for that. In a year or two Andersson might be available but he isn't available now.

I understand he isn't being moved, but if Calgary decided to blow it up even more. I think the Sabres could put a hell of a package together that would really help that rebuild.

That's good I still laugh whenever I see a dumb troll make an idiotic response like your's to what was clearly a tongue in cheek comment from me.
