Move gorges for a Big-Mac combo meal, buyout Bogo, place Moulson in LTIR with a "productivity allergy" and everyone is happy.

Do you think a team would be interested in Bogo with $2M retained?

Could you get a pick for that?

And another 1.3 next year. Its not much, sure, but you'll be WAAAAY closer to the cap next year. Why even worry about it when you have plenty of space this year?

You're much better off stomach-ing Gorges this year, and buying out Bogosian or Moulson next year if you have to.

You're fooling yourself if you think Buffalo will send Josh Gorges to the minors.

I thought someone mentioned here about a similar scenario with Vegas taking Bogo if we held on to a small amount of cap, but obviously that never occurred so I'm not sure. In general, I suppose if a team needed to hit cap floor, then perhaps it would make sense

What's the value of JVR to Buffalo? We have a huge need.

One year at 4.25, 28 yrs old.

Maybe add the elusive 2nd to get a 3rd back?

Moulson+Bogo+2nd for 3rd+B/C level prospect?

So another team hoping to stay in the playoffs trades a top 6 winger to an in division rival hoping to get in.

JVR who has notoriously taken shots at the city on social media when visiting here.

Its getting out of control. Might need to mandate a max salary before we have another shutdown/lockout
