Since Nov 11 among goalies with 1000 mins TOI (26 games, not 7)
UPL: .914 sv%, 2.40 GAA, 7.16GSAA
Sawyman: ..912, 2.71, 6.39
Why on earth would BUF even trade UPL for Swayman straight up? And you think BOS should just get a top C in the league, on a $2.5mm contract, on top of it and a 2nd??

Eichel: 135pts + Stanley Cup ( ppl think fans wanted Eichel to force his way out, we didn't, we tanked hard for him)

And it's more than 7 games.
Question: Did Ullmark suddenly become a markedly better goalie in BOS, winning a Vezina in the process. Or was he just playing behind a better team?
I'm a fan of both Ullmark and UPL, but I don't see any difference.

I know it won't ever happen, but switch UPL and Swayman...Put Swayman on the Sabres and there won't be any difference. Literally none, maybe even worse.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>You might be the only person alive who things UPL and Swayman are the same goalie or on the same level.
Mits is a #2C by the way. He is not a top centre.
The package is solid youngish #2C + good young back up goalie + early 2nd for a young top 10 goalie in the world.</div></div>
BOS goalies boast good numbers behind a good structured team D. That is obvious. UPL, by the way, has a .937 sv% going back to Jan 1, when he took over the starting job...Swayman? .912.
Mitts currently leads the Sabres in 5v5 TOI. He's also only behind these players in 5v5 points going on the past year+ (Since dec 9 2022):
1. MacK - 95
2. Pasta - 78
3. McD- 77
4. Kuch - 76
5. Point - 75
6. Rantanen - 71
7. Pettersson- 69
8. Matthews- 68
9. Mittelstadt - 67
The trade makes ZERO sense for the Sabres. ZERO.
We're getting a goalie who is playing worse on a much better team, plus giving a top-10 F in points, plus a top-40ish pick. In what world?

What?
Swayman and UPL are equivalent. Why are the Sabres adding a top-10 F in the NHL in 5v5 points + a 2nd???

Right handed defensemen now and trades at the TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Czu8iks</b></div><div>
If you buy him out in 1 july 2026, you save just 3,3 mil in cap space. So either way, for 26/27 season (this should be contention year 1 for Sabres, assuming this season is dead, next is playoffs) you are dealing with 5 to 6 mil dead cap.</div></div>
And creating cap space....

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Czu8iks</b></div><div>
1) You can, but it could backfire
2) They are point production is very similiar, so if sides agree on 8yrs deal, then Tippett`s range it would be
3) He really cant, since in 2nd year after buyout, dead cap will be 6 mil, and Sabres need salary space going forward, not right now. Any trade can be blocked by NMC by Skinner.</div></div>
1) How could it backfire? They are still BUF property for 4 more years after their ELCs expire. Bridge contracts are pretty standard around the league.
2) No sense in comparing their point production this season. They still have 1 more season to go.
3) In the 2nd year of what buyout? There are plenty of different seasons where he can be bought out and they, of course, are for different dollar amounts, depending on the year...Obviously any trade by Skinner can be blocked, but, would he rather get the full value of his current contract or be bought out (and thus make less money)? We don't know, but he may very well accept a trade. And last I checked even if his dead cap will be $6 million, that CREATES $3mm in CAP SPACE.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Czu8iks</b></div><div>You need to pay Peterka, Quinn, R. Johnson and Levi after next season. You cannot risk bridge dealing all of them and then couldnt afford to pay them. And there is still Alex Tuch due big raise, before Skinner expires. Both Peterka and Quinn price is set at Owen Tippett range for 8x6,25mil.</div></div>
1) You can definitely bridge them.
2) Tippet is Mittelstadt's age, not the age of JJP, etc. Not sure how Tippet's contract has any relevance here-- other than to point out that Tippet was bridged and not lost
3) Skinner can be moved or bought out if we need more room, which in this scenario --we don't.

The only trade I'd do here is the Trouba trade, but that is going to be hard to pull off as Trouba currently has a NMC and then a modified NTC after this season.
Honestly, D is no longer a problem for this team, in my opinion. Clifton has been playing really good hockey. Heck, all of the defensemen, other than Dahlin are now plusses on the season.
I think Samuelsson, especially considering his contract, is better and more valuable than Borgen.
I don't see how the Mitts trade makes us a better team now, or in the future. I would never trade a top-10 pick for (presumably) 2 late 1sts.
The Olofsson trade...that's fine...doesn't move the needle really either way.
Fix the PP (through coaching) and the team as constructed is a playoff team.

All the young talent is on an ELC, or will still be an RFA after their ELC's expire. There's no reason BUF cannot take on a contract like Trouba's.

This is terrible.
Those 2 2nd round draft picks will probably never play more games combined than Samuelsson. I'll just stop right there. The other trades are even worse.

Since when does doing pullups have anything to do with playing hockey and/or work ethic? Ask his coach and teammates who all praise him for his work ethic.
Middling player? Top 10 in his draft class in career points.
Top 10 in the NHL in 5v5 points the past 13+months.
