Thread: Eat Your Heart Out
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kster34</b></div><div>Genuinely curious - how do you resign Huberdeau or Weegar in this scenario?
Ebee has 2 years left, at least lucic was coming off the books next year</div></div>

Monahan coming off the books next year - 6.75 mill. Plus Huby's current contract - 5.9 mill. That's 12.65 mill in space. Huby probably in the range of 9 mill per year, leaves 3.65 mill left over.

Include Weegar's current 3.25 mill, plus the space of 3.65 mill = 6.85 mill. Weegar in the range of 6 mill per year. Still 850K left over if we re-sign both, without any other roster moves - just having Mony's contract come off the books.

To take it a step further, in this scenario, Stastny and Raffl would come off the books 2.75 + 1 = 3.75 mill, plus current cap space of 1 mill, plus cap increase ~ 1 mill next year. Total of 5.75 mill in cap next off season even with Huby and Weegar signed long-term at reasonable AAV's.

Thread: Can You Dig it
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lsendel3</b></div><div>Firstly that’s in TWO years. You said after next year. Secondly, I don’t think you understand what RFAs mean. Sure they have to sign them and they have a severe advantage on 1) they can only communicate with them until after the season is complete (meaning extensions during anytime) and 2) Buf can match an offer, meaning I’d they really want they can keep all 4 of them for a minimum of 3 on some, more on others (pending age and NHL games played).

Not to mention you are trading Buf Kylington who’s arb eligible and can take a one year deal right to UFA. Exactly what you are screaming what is wrong with Buf defense. Except it happens sooner with him. Didn’t really think that one through did ya</div></div>

They are ALL arb eligible in 1-2 years time. Kylington is arguable better than 3/5 (not Dahlin and Power), and BUF gets cost certainty because he is due a contract now, rather than signing 4 guys all in one offseason. I dont expect a trade to happen without BUF understanding what a Kylington extension looks like..

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojme</b></div><div>Are we just going to ignore than 5 of the sabres dmen are RFAs? Would rather have tuch on the first. You have no clue what tuch brings for the sabres. He very valuable for them and they aren't going to trade him</div></div>

RFA means little more than 1 year of team control if they're coming off a bridge deal, you still have to sign them. I know exactly what Tuch brings for the Sabres - 12G and 26A for a total of 38 points in 52 games. That's 0.73 PPG. He was a -3 last year and plays with speed off the wing. The value of these players is known just through basic research.. it's not some elusive mystery. A top 9 forward (younger than Tuch with similar pts and playing style) and a Top 4 dman is the price being paid for a player like Tuch.
