Thread: Eichel but Keeping Dube

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Alfie11</b></div><div>Toronto retained 1.2mil on Kessel for 7 years. Arizona is retaining 990k on OEL for 6 years. There are definitely crazier things out there, and recent precedents for retaining up to a mil for the last 5 years of this deal. Especially because Buffalo isn’t going to be good for 5 years, and will likely be a floor team for the duration of that.</div></div>

Poor take. The owner has made many poor decisions in his time owning the Sabres, but he hasn't been cheap.

No, no, ya see, they helped us get to the cap floor too, that's important here. It's not like there's 30 teams that would be willing to "help" us get to the floor.

Mittelstadt and jokiharju out for "weeks". Didnt sound particularly optimistic.

Thread: Lines to Start the Season

I saw that these were yesterdays practice lines. The only thing that jumps out to me- ruotsalainen needs a good long look with actual nhl players, fortunately thompson will likely hand this gift of a spot back before long. Cant teach tall i guess.

2.5 million for a late second?- seems pretty fair to me. Not a lot of teams selling cap space.

Yep

Thread: Eichel to CGY

I think i would be fine with lucic. We are gonna get pushed around this year. The miller thing was 10 years ago, and i blame regier for building a soft untalented team, way more than lucic.

Rather keep olofsson, but i like olofsson more than most.

Thread: Rebulid

I dont think the sabres trade is as crazy as some other sabres fans will, but i am not at all a fan of mittelstadt. Upl is a goalie prospect, and goalie prospects dont carry much value. So i know nothing of gustafsson, but i expect the sabres from office would rather keep their guy, unless they had gustafsson as a top 6 center. The other downside for this is that the sabres may very well be trading pick 33 for pick 30.

Not sure exactly how much of a jackass you have to be to get your contract voided, but evander is determined to find out.

Look at korpisalos save percentage. Last 3 years hes under .900. Sorry, changing the subject like that.

Thread: Eichel with retention and Trocheck Resigned

Well this offer doesnt get retention. The good- its all forwards, which is literally the most important thing to buffalo, the bad is- the sabres need top 6 forwards in a huge way, not sure how many of those are here. The firsts are from a very good team and also got kicked down the road. Its a pretty painless package for carolina. I would say, just add gardiner, but honestly he plays a position where we have so many kids, hes just gonna block some kids development. Theres no way this goes with retention, and im fine with taking short term cap back, but not at left d.

Thread: next year

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shibbal18</b></div><div>Sabres pass, rather take a pick for Thompson or see if he has developed more</div></div>

I dont even like thompson and i wouldnt do this. Maybe hes one of those power forwards that takes time. Plus goalies are interchangable. Goalies look better when the 18 guys skating in front of them are better.

Thread: Flames- bide eichel time

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jof991</b></div><div>4 first round picks (2 forwards and 2 defence) plus another first for retention. Especially when you consider if you don’t know if he’ll play this year seems pretty fair to me…</div></div>

Theres 2 d that we dont want/need and about 9 million in retention that we dont want. So drop the d and the retention and add a short term cap dump.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Juiceman</b></div><div>Exactly how does acquiring Benn, Seguin, and Khudobin help their rebuild?</div></div>

Help the sabres rebuild? Oh it doesnt help the sabres rebuild.

Thread: All in right now

You know this isnt close, right? A 34 year old winger, a left d (i mean of course, isnt there always?), and a first that isnt in 22 (yeah we already have it, still), and heponiemi. Thats pretty awful.

Forum: Armchair-GMSun at 4:43 pm

Thread: Claim

I thought i just read that he hasnt played center in a couple years, but i might have just made that up. Probably still a good claim though

Forum: Armchair-GMSun at 3:34 pm

Thread: It can be done

Im still surprised by how many people think that we wont be able to find cap anywhere if we dont take their god awful cap dumps. Theres 31 other teams in the league, probably 25 would be absolutely thrilled to send us short term cap dumps if the price is right. Getting to the floor is a phone call and a futures trade away. Plus, i believe that we will take cap back, as long as its short term, i think retaining is a coin flip, but retention will absolutely cost more, and cap dumps most likely dont add value to the package.
