Thread: BUF Has A Bright Future
Thanks for taking the time and the effort to publish a team.

A few general thoughts:

1. If you really want to move on from Risto then I can see the Carolina deal..... I think that would be a mistake..... no way should you be giving up the 2019 First Round pick as that could be a top 5 pick;

2. I think you overpaid for Neal and the term is going to be a problem when Dahlin et al need extensions;

3. Stastny will get more than $5,750,000 in the open market;

4. Where is Casey Nelson.... He should be in the lineup over Falk;

5. Do you really need Neal if you are trading for Skinner and Hagelin.... you want Skinner to pair up with Jack..... Hagelin would fit nicely as your #2LW or #3LW;

6. What happen to Linus Ullmark you can not let him just sit in Rochester..... do not make the Allen deal call up Ullmark that saves you $3.5 and flip Lehner to Philly, NYI, Calgary et al;

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojme</b></div><div>He was on a line with malkin a majority of the year. One year doesn't make the sabres jeopardize the future of the team. you could be getting the toronto kessel. Not for that price. You're taking two core pieces to buffalo's future for someone who's gonna be out of their prime when the sabres peak. This trade does not make sense for the sabres and comes at way too high of a price tag. Reino and risto aren't on the block. Sure they are hearing offers on anyone, as any team should, but they aren't being actively shopped. THIS TRADE WILL NEVER HAPPEN.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Kessel is way too old to give up Risto Reinhart and #32 for. Reinhart is already Eichels RWer. Kessel probably has a few years left in him too no doubt, but Sabres arent in a position to win now and this takes them further away.</div></div>

If GMBots was to make this trade or even Risto or Sampson straight up for Kessel he would be immediately fired and tried as a double agent spy...... Kessel was a disgruntled player in Toronto and I would never risk the youthful core in Buffalo to another bad attitude/disgruntled veteran...... if I played on a line with Malkin I would probably score 40 points and I suck!
