Wow

Had one great set up to Wilson in the slot - who whiffed.

Moved the puck with real pace a few times.

But mostly meh. We took a lot of penalties.

(frank) outta here

He trades Beaulieu, Girgs, and Larson for picks, has no Goalies, and is short a skater.

He said we have the room, we don't. Having the room doesn't mean it takes half a dozen moves to get there.

ALL those guys are easily tradable

And moving Bogo makes room for the goalies

Also...

WE AREN'T GETTING TAVARES ANYWAY

And it’s not bc we don’t have the Cap space

So if u make it a reasonable target like JvR (if that’s even reasonable)...
then there’s another 5mil in Cap Space


We have the Cap room to make moves
Or can easily get it

Not complicated

the larger issue is how we spend that cap. UFA is a no go imo. Other options would deplete resources too quickly in rebuild 15.0 (or whatever it is now i wasn't around on expansion day)

.. in the driver seat of the TANK BABY WOOO LETS GO COYOTES

That was last summer, I doubt anyone touches that deal with 10 foot pole now. I doubt we have a shot at Carlson, we're not in a position to really be after high end ufa's. Not yet anyways
- Sabresfan-365

I don’t think we will get Carlson or Tavares

Was just trying to show that overpaying Okposo & ROR (by a combined 2mil?) is in ABSOLUTELY NO WAY hindering us from trying to make any move we want

Especially realistic ones

I never liked Zadorov. He’s a 5/6

If we get Dahlin.....oh man

Any other Android users have problems with NHL highlights? I had a Samsung S7 and now a Kyocera workforce and neither have worked. They show me the commercial and then the video never plays

Right now no. A few years from now? hard to say. Im still of the opinion that you can't have top 6 that includes both ROR and Reinhart. neither produce enough to make up for how slow they are (although reinhart seems to have a bit of extra speed lately) Keep one, trade high on the other.

- sbroads24

I thought the defense would shape out like this...

McCabe-Ristolainen
Zadorov-Myers
McNabb-Pysyk

Even if GMTM didn’t make those “bad” trades,
we’d still need to fix the defense & add offense

(frank)ing darcy regier. Two 1st round picks in 2013 (including a top 10) and look where they're at now

I wanna get him more than i wanted McDavid

Looking all the way back on it, Darcy was still worse than TM. jesus we've had it rough

- Sabresfan-365

I’d rather keep Sam in this scenario, and I agree.

Compher is going to be a good player

Fair...
but the speed is a different issue

Luny was saying we don’t have the $$$
Which is just not true

If we had to trade one NOW,
if trade Sam bc his wing position is easier to fill than 2C

This is why i want him to get a good run at 2C. Play him with people not named griffith and girgensons while he's got the hot hand and see if he can create or not.

As of now im 50/50

- sbroads24

What do u mean by that though?

I wouldn’t project him as good as ROR
Not yet anyways

Who did we draft that year?
