Thread: Next Season III

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Czu8iks</b></div><div>Konecny getting more than Meier and Chychurn...</div></div>

He's an overall better player than them both. He's a better fit for what the Sabres need than Timo.

Thread: Next Season III

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KrakenTheCode</b></div><div>Seattle needs Borgen more than they need another scoring winger like Olofsson. Winger is the position where the Kraken have the greatest depth. I can't see them making this kind of deal.</div></div>

I understand the need to keep Borgen but you only have one player with 20 goals or more. Why not add 25-30 goals?

I am looking for nasty but we can't get slower. May need to go back to the drawing board. Want guys that can skate but also play with an edge.

Thread: TDL - Playoff Push

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tennisman142</b></div><div>As a blues fan I'd be delighted with than return. I don't think it will take a 2nd to get him, more likely a 3rd but I'd take that</div></div>

We don't have a 3rd this year unfortunately. Thinking about a 4th but thought that may not be enough.

Thread: TDL - Playoff Push

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny54</b></div><div>To be real I think Konecny would be a target before Meier just based on what it would cost contract wise as Konecny would have 2 yrs after this year of control</div></div>

That's what I was thinking. I like Konecny's style of play and leadership capabilities as well. Not big but he hits, fore and backchecks, and goes to dirty areas. I think he would rub off on young core players like Quinn, JJ, Krebs etc. And it is an overpay. That's what you need to do to get a player you really like.

I've been trading for TK for two years now and usually get my head bitten off. He's EXACTLY the forward Sabres need. Hard nose, work horse, with skill and goes to the net. He's 25 and people want to put him out to pasture.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeefBouillon</b></div><div>Not sure what kind of value Olofsson has with another year at $4.8 million.</div></div>

Would you pay $4.8 for 35-40 goals with the right centerman? Also opportunity to resign him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sens65</b></div><div>This offseason will be the perfect time for Buffalo to acquire some big name players, they have the assets and the cap space to make it work.</div></div>

Most likely to make modest moves and stick with the core group. Need to pay Cozens this summer and Dahlin, Power and others next summer. Thinking they should add a couple of vets that play with grit and actually hit people. That's why I added Wood and Schenn and brought back Girgensons. Not the year for them to bring in a $8M free agent.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Any player in the final year of their contract without RFA rights is a rental. If we're that interested in Olafsson, we can wait until the off-season and sign him for free. We're not moving out draft capital for players unless they have term or RFA rights. Ducks aren't buying pending UFAs with draft capital.

Then we will sign him in FA, without giving up a 2nd and clearing out a roster spots for you. Shop him elsewhere.</div></div>

Exactly what I'm saying. Some people (like Shiballs 18) just don't appreciate players like TK.

You do this EVERY TIME. And EVRY TIME I need to tell you that Konecny is a better player than VO. Then you say "look at their points" and I say "Konecny plays a harder game than VO." It gets boring...
