A deal around OEL and O’Reilly makes sense.

He’s going to be a UFA after next year, probably not too interested in AZ long term

O’Reilly fits their budget long term. We have $$ to sign OEL.

This would obviously be a post July 1 trade

O’Reilly + for OEL would be a dream scenario

That could just be a PR move, or the coach saying "you're going to get along and you're going to like it!".

They were at the Bills game together though. I don't buy any hearsay about that.

Lol...I grew up a Pens and Sabres fan. The Sabers are more interesting to talk about right now.

Botterill is the cap genious that put the pens in a position to have the same team for back to back cups. If anyone can figure out the correct amount to keep and get good value its him. Plus, ROR is pretty young. I'd think that if he held onto 1.5/year you'd have plenty of contenders willing to make a move. Especially if he took a slight salary dump back for a shorter term.

It's the type of deal that Rutherford loves. The right player at the right price like Kessel. If buffalo took on someone like Hagelin I could see Pitt moving a D-man, prospect and a pick for someone locked up that long.

Could do, but with a likely moulson buyout im not sure they'll want to retain a chunk of ROR's deal

I don’t really think that’s true though.

Any D man we’re taking back is going to cost money now or if he’s younger on his next deal.

What we’d be looking for is like a Trouba situation

I'd agree but any of those out there?

McCabe is probably the best contract on the roster other than the expiring ones after this year

Wilson Cast Adrift
"With zero points in 20 games this season, a cynic could argue that Scott Wilson, the left-winger the Wings acquired last month from the Pittsburgh Penguins for Riley Sheahan, was filling Sheahan’s role capably.

Sheahan didn’t score a goal last season for Detroit until Game No. 82 of the regular season.

Monday, the Wings decided they’d seen enough of Wilson and opted to move on from him after he’d played just 17 games in a Detroit uniform. Wilson was dealt to the Buffalo Sabres for a 2019 fifth round draft pick.

David Booth will take Wilson’s place in the lineup Tuesday against the Jets, and Wednesday, the Wings will reassess and decide whether to call up someone from AHL Grand Rapids. "
