Not quite right sir. At least one of you guys was adamant that he was NOT getting traded, under any circumstances and would sign long term in Buffalo. He was WRONG.

Kevyn Adams came out multiple times in the media and said he isn't trading Tuch, and he has also stated he isn't trading for futures. I also said they were going to move Mittelstadt, so I'm immune to this innane logic. They specifically aren't trading Tuch to a division rival that's behind them for a bunch of garbage, like just use common sense above anything else

Sabres top pair is Byram Dahlin. Sabres don't need a top pair dman desperately enough to consider moving Tuch

The Sabres have found themselves back in the playoff race in the final month once again. They aren't going to blow it up at the end of the year just to help a division rival. Blows my mind

I never said they would trade Tuch for this offer, just saying no player is untouchable for the right offer.

There is the guy that said Middlestadt was UNTOUCHABLE and would sign LONG TERM in Buffalo. Wrong both times, weren't you? Just can't admit it so call someone a troll for being right TWICE. LMFAO!!!

I get that ppl wanna poach our good players,
but trades gotta work for both teams
And just about every proposal i see involving Buffalo is just giving us crap they don’t want anymore with a pick added on.

Total nonsense

Tuch is a good player, not a great player. Def not untouchable, unless you are a mentally handicapped GM. Sorry
