Thread: Why not

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyFan989</b></div><div>Bennett's playoff success is MILES better then Wood, and has a bit of a rep for preforming.. so easy choice for me

nah, he'll enjoy Vladivostok for 5 years by the looks of it</div></div>

Vladivostok is on the border of North Korea, he'll be back in a Sabre uni before the end of camp

Thread: Eichel trade dont freak out

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Alfie11</b></div><div>His price tag means that unless he’s scoring 40 he has negative value. His analytics can be fine but that only makes him a bounce back candidate at a price tag like 6mil below what he’s making lol. Call it poor usage, call it an extended slump, at the end of the day he’s paid to score, and 9mil players should be able to carry a line, they shouldn’t need anyone else.

As for the trade, nobody’s taking on 19mil in cap space for two players, especially if only one of them is good.</div></div>

9 million dollar players are not paid to carry the 4th line with 12 minutes a night

Dallas has an average age of 28 and not many good prospects left in the pipe line currently, their forwards are going to fall apart

Skinner wont be used as a negative add piece and analytically no one should assume he has negative value only terrible usage.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyFan989</b></div><div>if I'm thinking playoffs i want Bennett and every team should be thinking playoffs if they want to have some success

easily too much for Eichel, sorry but ill rather have the Hughes bros...... didn't even factor Foote in there tbh

u forget the only way Eichel gets traded is if he wants out.... and if it comes to that full value isn't coming back</div></div>

Bennett had 1 good playoff series. You forget if Eichel wants out, hes still under contract, for 5 more years. He can go enjoy Vladivostok for a year, bet he wont complain about the Sabres after that

3 points in 5 games, hes winning more time, which he should be, up until this season hes looked like a bust. I would like to see less of Okposo and more of Mitts though. Sheltered time will help his development

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyFan989</b></div><div>too much for Eichel.. dont care wat Buff fans say

not enough going to Flames

Jets cant afford trading defense for offence</div></div>

Miles Wood has 9 points in 15 games, Bennett is a bust and a bottom 6 forward. And thats not enough for Eichel but that may be skewed as Foote is not an interesting piece

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Montours value has tanked as has mittlestads. Both are worse less than 2nds at this point.

An unprotected first from a crappy team has value but it's not enough.

That being said Buffalo has zero reason to make this trade. They don't need another winger. That's not their issue</div></div>

Mittelstadt's values is currently the highest its been since the world juniors in 2018. But yes the last thing Buffalo needs is a LWer

I said before the draft. Stutzles numbers arent far off Lafs. Also Stutzle has been playing on the 3rd line of the Senators vs the top line of the Rangers.

Thread: Nouveau noyau

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>markmws</b></div><div>I read an interesting article on <em>The Hockey News</em> website about a possible Eichel trade: essentially, the market is going to dictate what the Sabres would receive. While many Sabres fans would love to receive a Byfield, a Zegres, a Lafreniere, the likelyhood of the Ducks, Kings and Rangers being willing to deal any of those three is extremely slim. The Sabres are, unfortunately, in an extremely difficult position. I do not have a horse in this race, but I honestly think that, if Eichel <em>does</em> request a trade (honestly, he hasn't yet and there is no telling if he is even interested in being traded), he may not fetch as much as everyone seems to think he will.

I am by no means saying that he is not worth it. But everyone also has not taken into account a salary cap system that has been severely affected by Covid: with a flat cap, this deal will likely also have to involve the Sabres taking on money. A deal for a bunch of high level prospects or other $10 million dollar players is extremely unlikely: there is just no way teams that have $10 million dollar players either a.) want to trade them, or b.) are being pressured by those very players to leave the team.

It's not a fun position for the Sabres or their fans to be in, and I empathize with that. It hasn't been fun there in a while and I know that's awful. Better days are ahead: just by the laws of probability, they have to be. :) I am rooting for them! :)</div></div>

Theyre just not going to move Eichel, hes definitely not going to request a trade after playing hurt and not producing 5v5, which is the sole reason the Sabres have struggled

What? OEL is not good defensively and is solely a PP QB and hes starting to decline there and he is definitely older than Skinner. Skinner is also not a 3rd liner, thats part of the problem currently, his usage in Buffalo is terrible
