Thread: Timo trades that actually fit SJ needs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gretzkyghosts</b></div><div>LOL, I really like Pronman's list.
Seven of the top 52 are Sabres as well as 3 of the top 10.
I truly hope he is under rating Johnson (not ranked), Savoie and Levi (151st).
Savoie make no sense to rank him at 81st

Skating: <strong>Above</strong> NHL average
Puck skills: NHL average
Hockey sense: <strong>Above</strong> NHL average
Compete: <strong>Above</strong> NHL average
Shot: <strong>Above</strong> NHL average

BTW glarson17 if that was all it took to get Meier, he would wearing Blue and Gold now, and I do not think it is time to move assets, but that would be too good to pass up.</div></div>


I agree, if Buff were to get and extend Timo, I would do that trade, or be fine with it. Also, we keep Kulich and Savoie.

Thread: Deadline part 1
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>nhldeadline2</b></div><div>I think that's a lot for Buffalo, but it's pretty reasonable considering their prospect depth at forward and Joker likely not being a major piece after this contract.

Side note - Idk if this is an accurate comp bc i havent watched much of Chychrun in the NHL.. but he kinda reminds me of Bogosian early on in his career. He has all the potential in the world but early injury bug throws a question mark in everything</div></div>

I agree, and I don't know that we want to pay a RHD 2 pair the money he's going to want? We need someone in the $3-4 mill range, w/ our main money going to Dahlin and Power.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>Sure. Points aren't everything, though. He contributes to offense a lot in ways that aren't reflected on a basic stats sheet, i.e. shutting down play and starting transitions back to offense, moving the puck up the ice, keeping pucks in the offensive zone and moving them into open space for offense to build off of, activating to draw players out of position, etc. There is a reason why he is so attractive to other teams, and his defense first style is a huge part of that. It is something a lot of teams are missing. Most "good" dmen would have absolutely awful goal differentials if they weren't always trying to score. I am of the opinion that dmen should play defense, and a "lack" of offense doesn't make them any less valuable.

Also, you can literally only have a 23 man roster. Having all of these players and prospects in your system does nothing if you can't put them on NHL ice.</div></div>
