Yes it is, but it's for a star player.

No more looking at bargain bin reclamation projects.

Understand, I think they would want a bigger fish than Casey and then I wouldn't want to include Benson.

Cozens, Benson and Rosen for Pettersson and Hoglander

- Buff36

How would you compare Bensons ceiling to Petterson's?

Sounds like EDM and Evan Bouchard closing in on 2x$3.9M

I think either Skinner or Cozens are in this deal.

Or Dahlin
- Hank Balling

If they want Cozens or Dahlin, the deal doesn't happen.

Pettersson- $11
Dahlin - $10.5
Skinner - 9
Cozens - 7
Power - 7
Tage - 7

$50m for 6 players. Even if the cap gets up to $87 next year, that's tough. $37m for the other 17 players

Adams will be a year older making him a top4GM, so this won't be an issue.

Agree about Skinner.

Would likely need to be a separate deal.

From a Sabres perspective, I'd imagine either of Dahlin or Cozens would be an immediate no, which means you think Vancouver would then say no, which makes sense.

Shouldn't be. Pettersson is a definite upgrade

Greenway,Tuch, Rousek,JJ,Quinn, Clifton, Samuelsson, Levi and that's about 17-18mill. So say 20mill to fill the 9 spots.

I thought so too, but this says otherwise:

Cozens should be on the table for EP.

Guess it depends on what Vancouver wants, Sabres could basically rebuild there system for them if they wanted.

- QuinnFan

I highly doubt the Sabres would entertain that idea.

Who says no challenge:

Mittelstadt, Savoie, Benson, 2024 1st for Pettersson
- kingcong39

Sabres, undoubtedly

this is hilarious.

This can be done without the use of 4 1st round draft picks

why?
- washedup20

That forward roster is an NHL abomination.

Make a top line of Tkachuk-Norris-Mittelstadt and Frederick and Poehling are the last remaining serviceable, limited use forwards.

Would take 5 imo:

Girgensons, R. Johnson, Okposo, E. Johnson and Jost

Brilliant


Tim Connelly was/is a horrible hockey player.

Talk about a tin man with no heart......

Cozens should be on the table for EP.
- QuinnFan

Sounds like an already soft team would be getting much softer.

Cozens > petterrsson

This is a deal I would consider after intense thought and an ayahuasca retreat to a dark room for several weeks.

Definitely not this past year but add Mitts to Cozens and those two combined to equate to Pettersson's impact this past season. One could assume both players will provide more, as Cozens grows his game and Mittelstadt maybe plays (tries) a whole season.
