Thread: Hertl Tuch
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I just don't understand the fascination some of you Buffalo guys have for Tomas Hertl. He's nothing more than a two-year bridge to Dylan Cozens -- and for that, you're going to give up the 8th overall pick in this draft?!?

And don't give me that "we're in a win-now mode in order to keep Jack Eichel happy" nonsense. You guys aren't Tomas-Hertl-away from getting into the playoffs, and I seriously doubt whether you're Tomas-Hertl-and-Alex-Tuch-away from getting into the playoffs. You also need better goaltending (which, admittedly, a maturing Linus Ullmark may give you) and more than one defense-proficient defenseman.</div></div>
I agree with this. We already only have one blue chip prospect being cozens. We have no prospects for a team that’s been rebuilding for a decade now. Getting Hertl and Tuch would make the team better for next year yes. But we probably still won’t make the playoffs and will be in the same situation we are in this year
