Thread: Expansion Draft Prep
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>So what you are saying, even using your standards, we could add a premium forward and defensemen and still not be worse off for the draft?</div></div>

Yes, but the timing is the key. That's the whole point of this entire suggestion. Do nothing for 2020-2021. Position yourself to have protected spots available for valuable assets you can hopefully fleece from other teams for less than market value before they lose them for nothing in the expansion draft. If you want to flip Reinhart for someone you'd want to protect or young high-upside guys you wouldn't have to rather than paying him, I'm listening to that conversation. Too soon to sell on Mittelstadt but that debate could be had as well. But barring either of those: do nothing. Sacrificing the season (even though the city might burn) looks like it might be the right call.

Thread: Expansion Draft Prep
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>You make a post about preparing for the expansion draft and you do nothing to show how we would be affected by the expansion draft.

And, if you try to tank again, 6 years later, the city will be burned to the ground. Its time to win. Its time for the GM to be bold and make moves to make the team better.

If we do the 7/3/1 with the current roster we are talking: Eichel, Reinhart, Skinner, Olofsson, Kahun, Mittlestadt, Larsson, Dahlin, Jokiharju, and one of montour/miller/ristolainen/pilut/mccabe and ullmark.

How many of these guys are you terrified to lose? You wont add a player because you might lose johan larsson or colin miller?

get it together</div></div>

Players I wouldn't want to lose:

F: Eichel, Reinhart, Skinner, Olofsson, Kahun, Mittlestadt (6)
D: Dahlin, Jokiharju (2)
Goalies: Don't care

You're ignoring something so very, very obvious. Let's see if you can figure it out. LMAO

Thread: Eichel and cap drop plus compliance buyout
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Paul13</b></div><div>1 I know sabres are not shopping Eichel. If you could direct your eyes to the team explanation you would understand that.
2 two A prospects, 2 first round picks and a cheap top 6 center plus a top pair defenseman is a very good offer it may take the addition of 1 of Fiala, or Kaprizov, it would really depend on what other teams were willing to offer, but it is far from a pathetic effort.</div></div>

Staal is old and the Sabres aren't anywhere near going for it so that is a piece they wouldn't need. Only want futures if you're trading Eichel. There would definitely need to be at least 1 A+ can't miss prospect. You could argue Dumba is a downgrade and he's definitely not a definite top 2. Still not close.
