Thread: Realistic

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BuFfaLOFaN</b></div><div>They might now want the pick, how many teams got vegas to do that last time?</div></div>

plenty. Is it more advantageous for them to take Asplund or to get Eakin/Miller and a pick?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BuFfaLOFaN</b></div><div>No we are not, I'd take Bjork and Thompson over him, he is a bottom 6 player I don't think he has potential to be a top 6 player like those 2.</div></div>

Give up a 3rd or 4th so they take Eakin or Miller instead

Not at all lol. Talbot is all over the place with consistency. He has a good year followed by bad years. Dumba is a good player but Reinhart is much more valuable

Finally someone who values Risto, but that is an overpayment.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aarchibald</b></div><div>Skinner has not been playing like a top line player this year and some of their other lines have developed good chem. Girgensons is maybe worth a little more but not much as his value has decreased this season by far and teams are not willing to pay as much for a guy like him. And drafting Power starts to build up a young D-core for the future of this team as they need to rebuild their farm system</div></div>

Many things you said is pretty uninformed and its evident you haven't followed the Sabres much, so I'll take the opportunity to provide some education. Skinner has played okay, not great and not terrible. He still gets chances to score every game but he is clearly at home with Eichel as his center. Zemgus is a great role player, no need for Buffalo to dump him off. Every team in the league would love to have him on their team, maybe not for 2.2 mil but what he brings to a team is highly sought after. We should not draft Power or any other defenseman in the 1st round unless Berniers, Eklund, and Guenther are off the board (which is highly unlikely as we will draft top 3 or 4. Our future D core is the least of our worries. Dahlin, Joki, Bryson, Borgen, Laaksonen, Samuelsson, Johnson are all young guys who are/will become NHL regulars. Add that to McCabe (who will resign) and Risto (if we don't move him) and you have a very good D-core with a balance of offensive and defensive defensemen. We don't need to "rebuild" the farm system, we just need to take quality players with our picks. It hasn't been a quantitative lack of prospects in the pipeline but rather a qualitative deficiency in the prospects we have

Thread: fixing buffalo

Vince Dunn is not worth a 1st in a loaded draft and a 3rd

Forum: Armchair-GMSat at 1:58 pm

Thread: Change it up

As solid as Dunn is, Buffalo would be better off keeping the 2nd and developing Bryson. McCabe would be a better choice for our team anyways, since he is one of the only guys we have/had with heart and leadership

Forum: Armchair-GMSat at 1:56 pm

Thread: I could live with this

You don't seem to understand that Matthew Tkachuk holds as much value to Calgary as Jack Eichel does for Buffalo. Would you trade Eichel for a top 3 pick, top 6 forward, and bottom 6 forward while giving up your 8-15th OA 1st? No you wouldn't. Tkachuk is probably worth Quinn, 2021 1st, one of Joki or Olofsson and another good prospect like Portillo, Johnson, or Rousek etc. Heck they would probably want Cozens and the 2021 1st which obviously Buffalo would not do

Thread: Go Team

"Gotta move about 10 million in cap. Get actual value for Palat vs paying to dump other parts"

<strong>Proceeds to trade Palat for a late 2nd</strong>

Even as a 1-year rental, Palat would fetch more than that on the market. I think they could reasonably ask and attain a 2nd and B prospect. What about trading Thompson and the Boston 2nd for Palat and then Seattle probably selects Eakin or Miller

Not going to lie, I saw the name Josh and noticed a trade with Anaheim... Thought it was another bad Manson to Toronto idea lol

Ah yes, because changing which team you dump Bjork to totally makes it worth posting another AGM.

Thread: Next Year

You already posted these exact trades, please dont bombard CF with repeat posts especially when the ideas are not good

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 2:22 pm

Thread: Lets keep competing

If you want to compete, you don't want Eakin anywhere near your roster. And realistically his value is no more than a distant 7th right now, definitely wouldn't have to give up a B prospect

Forum: Armchair-GMFri at 2:22 pm

Thread: Next Year

How on Earth is one year of Elvis worth 2 2nds and a 3rd? Look at some trade comparables and you will see that UFA goalies rarely get more than a 2nd

Thread: MB going big

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PhillyDip123</b></div><div>I feel like the Sabres are going to do the Taylor hall thing where they trade Eichel way too late and for far too little. Apart from Eichel, I don’t think they have anyone who will be able to draw a crowd once their arena opens up again.

It’d be rad to have Eichel on the canadiens though, as a leafs fan I’d get to see him square up to Matthews more often.</div></div>

Probably not because unlike Hall, Eichel isn't a UFA and has never said he wanted to leave Buffalo. You don't think Dahlin and Cozens will "draw a crowd" huh? Interesting....

Thread: trying to fill the right wing

Horrendous Columbus trade! Top 3 pick, our best prospect, and a 2nd for potato Laine? No way anyone wants to pay Laine on his next contract and tbh his value right now is either the 1st or Quinn definitely not both. Much rather keep our high pick and promising young prospect

Honestly I'd rather have 5 years of Eichel and trying to win with him than trading him and watching him light it up for the next 5 years on another team

No he has not reached the exposure requirement, needs 20 more games and there isn't that many left in the season

Chinakov, Foudy, Gavrikov, Atkinson and a 1st for Eichel is probably in the realm of fair value but Eichel won't be traded

A much worse trade was giving away Jordan Eberle for what ended up being Sam Gagner when all was said and done. Oilers panicked and gave up on Strome

Thread: All-NHL Teams

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChrisPy97</b></div><div>I hear what you're saying, but there's no way the group that votes on this is voting in Chychrun. I also don't think All-NHL teams are meant to look at most valuable, even though I understand your argument that he might be more individually exceptional. I would actually still go and say these four defencemen have been better, but I do think Chychrun has been incredible</div></div>

Sad that the NHL is all about politics instead of picking the players who most deserve/earn recognition

Risto is worth more, no reason to move him if we don't get a good return
