Thread: More gas

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BUFF36</b></div><div>Interesting, but doubt that gets it done from Arizona's standpoint.</div></div>

As I made it I was wondering if the sticking point is ARI would need 1 of Peterka, Kulich, Savoie instead of Rosen.

If you replace Rosen with Savoie I bet that gets it done

Thread: Ive Never Seen this Before

Sabres are in such a good cap position they have done themselves the service of not having to give up assets for cheaper younger goalies.

The only way they go Hart is if they can fleece the flyers, like UPL and a future 2. Otherwise, they will just go short term over market veteran like Hill, Raanta, Andersen, Varlamov etc.

Thread: Ah yes the horrible proposals are starting

The two likely outcomes
1. AD Signs his QO and the senators go for it
2. They trade him and get absolutely crushed on the trade. No team will give significant assets for a player with his contract situation. I’m talking like a late first and maybe a young bottom 6 forward.

Thread: Crazy right

When did I miss when elite NHL UFAs (Helle) avoid free agency and only take 5 year contracts?

Someone will offer Helle 7x9 in UFA, don’t know why he would sign this….

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Clearly, you guys don't know how this works.

Once we trade Iafallo, Petersen's cap hit becomes irrelevant because we'll be under the cap even with it. It's really simple.</div></div>

Or you could, idk, use the extra cap space on Gavrikov and a Goalie.
Pigeon post IMO

He’s worth a 2nd and a decent prospect

Thread: What serious teams do

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fjordy</b></div><div>I disagree.I don't see the point in this. Our attack is fine, we need more Savoie type than Keller. We score a lot, but our forwards not good in defense, we bad on FO, we need forwards who can play defense, forecheck, PK, with a good motor. Savoie is such a forward in the potential and there is no point in trading him, we will need his ELC. IMO</div></div>

They have to win now.
The only way is forward.
Hoping for prospects is a fools errand.
Go go go.

Also, just as I would expect better goaltending next year, I would also expect a regression in shooting. They were only 10-12th in xG per game. Plus, Keller would’ve played with meatballs at the USNTDP

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Fjordy</b></div><div>Don't want to trade Savoie and will probably need 2023 1st. I don't know why we need offensive players at all, we have enough of them, plus Savoie, Kulich and Rosen are on the way. Olofsson already looks superfluous.</div></div>

Bc Keller is a legit superstar and you can’t have enough of those types of players. Chances are only 2 of the big 4 forward prospects become full time NHLers, and only 1 becomes a true top6 star player.

Meh. DD is right handed, and lately has been playing the minutes that the Sabres need him to play with OP.

Thread: Retool

The only comp for CH is Kuemper, which was a 1st and a B prospect in Timmins.

I think we can safely declare UPL a B prospect. He’s still raw and cheap and can play in the NHL.

That said, accounting for the difference between CH and DK, I would say that is when you add another 2nd or another B prospect like Neuchev, Ryan Johnson, etc.

Nate Schmidt is a negative value asset due to his contract. Maybe if Demelo was involved with an palatable extension

Thread: Retool

That’s too much for Buffalo.
Maybe if it was Dylan Demelo with a reasonable extension in place instead of Schmidt.

He’s always been a great player. I just remember the constant “but now can Vegas fit him?!!!” Convo

You can always fit good players Bc the NHL allows you you bury players during the regular season
