Thread: Another angle
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Meeqs</b></div><div>Unsure how Ott would feel about this.

Col says yes, makes sense for both teams.

Buf would be foolish not to says yes. Seems like a bit of an overpay</div></div>


lol come on, OTT pulls the trigger on this, Watson hasn't hit above 19 points in his career he's literally a throw in, Strome is a middle six forward, AND they get a guy who literally projects as a better Watson and only move back 5 spots in a an uncertain draft?? Come on, unless they have their eyes dead set on someone at 10 I don't see why they don't do this.

COL says yes and this makes "sense" only if they magically have another 6 million laying around for Buch. Is Landy walking? IS Grubi walking? Is Jost coming back? Have they plugged the holes on Defense? Have they signed Cale long term? Is there still enough money to sign Mack if Buch comes on? Lots of questions to answer before even COL can consider this trade, hold your horses on this one.

I'm with you on the BUF trade, that's a good move for a rebuilding franchise

Thread: God I hope this works call this the Sensible roster I guess
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NMAvsFan</b></div><div>Feel like you overpaid Jost by about $1M. Suter can't have that much if he's chasing a Cup - he's made a ton of money in his career, now is the time to sign for a very low amount on a legit team.</div></div>

See, I think Jost is worth actually 1.5m, but I also think Jost is gonna look around and see Nuke making 2.5 and Compher making 3.5, AND leverage that he found himself producing on the second line and in the playoffs and ask for more. So I figure we meet in the middle here.

Suter's agent was in the Athletic talking up a storm ab how he wants to win but he also wants to get paid. One year 1-off contract to get you a top Defensemen (albeit, a declining and aging one)? I'll take that. Someone's gonna offer him that money, might as well be Col if they've got the space and ESPECIALLY if he'll only be around for a year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Meeqs</b></div><div>I have no idea why CBJ does that

Col isn't going to overpay Gabe that much, they'd let him walk for that</div></div>

With you re: the CBJ trade. Hard disagree re: Gabe, it's 1M shy of they offered initially, with Donskoi and Graves gone bumping Gabe up by 1M is more than feasible. Overpaying by 1M makes more sense than letting your locker room's heart and soul walk out for nothing.

Re: CBJ It'd probably take another forward prospect or draft pick to take Kadri, BUT in the short term, Kadri is an immediate upgrade at the center position, expiring contract sent to a bad team with the potential to flip him at the deadline for more assets, when it's all said and done, they could maybe look at turning Roslovic into into 2-4 assets if they play their cards right.
