Athanasiou doesn't really bring enough to the table to justify moving the best 2nd round pick (which is essentially first overall after a few calculations)

Daley sucks

- Sabresfan-365

I'd part with pick 32 if it landed a legit second line winger

we could end up drafting the next Mitch Moroz or Jared Knight with pick 32

Eh, ive always liked Daley. Admittedly, he's on the back-9 of his career.

We'd still have

Scandella-Risto
Dahlin-Nelson
Guhle-Bogo
Daley
Beaulieu

AA helps our top-6 immensely

just looked, Daley is another LD

Yeah, that's fine with me. If there's an injury, Guhle slides to the right, and Daley stays at left

i mean just about anyone does when you consider who is in the top 6.

I just think you can do better with McCabe+32, even if it's keeping both

Here's mine:

Mcabe and 32 for Daley and Athanasiou.

Maybe add a prospect - nylander, etc

- jcragcrumple


Why Daley, he’s 34.
Athanasiou looks to me to be a 20G/20A
I would hope for a bit more

He's perfect for Eichel imo. He has the wheels

it's going to cost so much more than anyone would want to give up, you'd be buying way above his actual worth at 32 years old because he had a career year.

That and we're not even sure he'd accept a trade here.

- Sabresfan-365

The trade that sent him there in the first place had a return of Kapanen, Spaling and a 1st if I’m not mistaken. He’s now four years older.

Id say Guhle has done enough to earn a 3rd pair role next year. Scandella, McCabe and Beaulieu are the only ones who have more or less hit their ceilings and Id say mccabe is the best of that bunch in terms of value to the team
- Sabresfan-365


Yeah, I think Guhle should definitely be on the team, he's still only 20 somehow, it feels like he should be like 24.

I hate "giving up" on McCabe, he's still a relatively young 24, and even if this is it, you can never have enough, cheap, legit everyday NHL D-men.

I'd leave Guhle and Nelson up all year to see what's what and then make moves accordingly next year, or even TDL if they can get take advantage of someone who's lost his mind.

Actually the total cap hit for 2 years would be less than it is for this year alone if they kept him.

Edit: Actually since he'd probably be buried it'd be about the same. No big deal.

good catch, but i think that makes it worse. Unless they get a haul, there's really no reason to move him
- Sabresfan-365


All the other GMs are dumb. That’s why Kessler gets moved, and that’s why it will be unreasonably favorable to us.

Two ss’s.

It’s been a running joke for 18 months. Almost since Gallysano died.

Keep up.

It's the humane thing to do and doesn't cost anything really. Lets everyone move on.

Bruh you're not even trying anymore

Edit: I know it's a running joke, just like how all GMs are geniuses and never make mistakes, therefore the only way to get better is in some fantasy land where all the talent here is suddenly going to take 10 steps forward and every UFA will sign with us at reasonable price.

I believe he's more entertaining now, I just have no idea which side he's on in any discussion. Just seems to be which ever one he can use catch phrases like "ut oh" or "5 dollar bill" or "insert logical fallacy that ironically applies to myself as well here"
