Excellent move, low cost value with great upside. This is smart GM'ming.

Darcy never made a move and TM threw picks around like monopoly $. Darcy was the smarter, TM was the braver, but Jason Botteril is going to be around for a long time.

He should be fine on bottom pair with antipin. Well worth the extra 3rd we had.

Let's hope Housley can get some consistency out of this group. Like the trade as of right now. If Housley can work the same magic here like he did with the D corps in Nashville, things could be looking up!

Good trade. Kid has had a rocky start but he's still 24 and potential to be a top 4 guy. Absolutely worth a 3rd rounder.

This is a good move for only a third rounder, I wish the jets would have made it!!

(I think I may have just accidentally flagged your post. It's what I get for doing this on my phone in an airport)

Would it be such a terrible thing to have Guhle start out the season in Rochester? Maybe give Housley some time to straighten out Risto/McCabe/Beaulieu and let Guhle get top pair minutes in Rochester. Probably wouldn't be the worst thing for him.

if they don't move gorges, I guess guhle can spend the year in rochester and be the first call up

I'm hoping that Bogosian is the guy Vegas takes. Just have a bad feeling it's going to be Ullmark if he's left out there.

I believe Lehner is not the starting goalie for the Sabres in 2017. Ullmark or a veteran on a 2 year to warm Ullmark into the position is my bet (Mason, Niemi)
