Thread: Sabres wo CBO TBLVANMIN Trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>thewookie1</b></div><div>Well how exactly do you plan to sign him? Based on this website you'll have 5.3 mil in cap space with 3 defenseman and 7 forwards. However notable RFAs are the aforementioned Cirelli, Cernak, and Sergachev. If the Sabres offered the 7th Overall for Cirelli I'd think they would at least ponder it; its not like he's a huge point producer at this point.

Cirelli is the number 1 priority, him first everyone else is next


Well we can't exactly pay him to be Ristolainen with better skating but less physicality....



To be honest I was hunting for teams with 2 1sts who might need a Dman. Also the Wild pick is likely to be somewhere between 10 and 15 and the Pittsburgh pick is likely to be in the latter 20's</div></div>

Thread: Major moves with VAN TOR TB EDM
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>My thoughts are close to the same regarding to the Hughes trade. The demand is becoming so excessive that it simply isn't going to be worth for the team to offer much more.

Granted Hughes is a terrific player, but I don't feel like the players they're receiving are falling off that short either.

Regarding TOR trade, I think it's the maximum you're getting.

Imo Tampa trade makes sense if Bratt is dealt, since a replacing TOP6 LW is needed.

I think EDM would do the trade without the picks as well. Getting rid of Russell's cap should be in their interest.</div></div>

The Tampa trade doesnt make sense from Tampa's side, now that they wont have a RHD. Take Boqvist out and replace with a D and maybe or just drop Foote

Thread: Cirelli and EDM Trade the next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheMooterus</b></div><div>As it sits now, Tampa has roughly $7M in cap space to sign players this offseason, and that's based off of CapFriendly's generous pre-shutdown assumption of an $84M salary cap. They will need to move a player or two in order to sign Cirelli, because he will be a very popular offer sheet candidate for teams this offseason. If the Lightning are able to move someone like Johnson or Killorn then it becomes a bit easier to sign Cirelli, but as it stands now it would take some insane financial gymnastics to sign Cirelli &amp; fill the roster spots left by departing players this offseason.</div></div>

If there's a CBO then Tampa will be able to buyout one contract and find a trade partner for Killorn once his NTC becomes partial July 1st, freeing up about $9 million
