Thread: Rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RoyalBlueSabres</b></div><div>This doesnt make them better in the long run or in the short term. Would rather eat the salary with Skinner and have a functioning player that costs too much than a plug that just eats away at the salary. This puts the team in purgatory. there is so much salary on this team of washed up players so the team cant improve in the offseason. You collected a handful of mid round picks that the Sabres have been historically awful at. So why</div></div>

Just being hopeful.... you gotta think they accidentally stumble on a late round steal eventually.... I did the Vlasic trade for a fresh start for both players. Also think Vlasic may not play the full length of that contract giving the Sabres more cap space sooner. I also agree it doesn't make them better long or short term however they aren't in any spot to make any moves as of right now to help them in the present without trading high-quality assets which have been scarce for the Sabres for a while and don't want an O'Rielly repeat with Eichel/Dahlin/Reinhart

Thread: Blowing everything up and retooling the rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BStinson</b></div><div>Welcome to CapFriendly.

Here’s a breakdown of each trade and who wouldn’t do them instead of me just saying “yikes” or “lol”.

Calgary rejects, Hanifan has looked the part of his draft profile, Bennett holds some value, and a first + second rounder are way more value than Brannstrom (Stepan is a dump).

Edmonton rejects, White isn’t worth roughly 2x first round picks.

Montreal rejects, Petry is a monster and Zaitsev is a dump and the second rounder is moot.

Buffalo rejects, Ullmark is better and they give a pick, doesn’t make sense.

Vancouver rejects but this is closer to fair value.

Boston rejects, McAvoy is a bonafide top pairing young RHD so don’t use quantity to get him. Think Tkachuk ++ to get him.

Ottawa should decline, Norris is &gt; Robertson in my book but this is probably your fairest trade.

Washington rejects, Wilson is the power forward every team covets.

Ottawa should reject that.</div></div>

Thank you for feedback I'm new to armchair GM and not good with values yet
