Something along those lines, yes. Murray wouldn't move Bailey but Botterill will if the deal makes sense for the team to move forward.
- SABRES 89

But, what would a deal like that be for Buffalo in return? I know we're paying the price of Bailey to get rid of Okposo, but doesn't something still have to come back? It can't see Okposo and Bailey for Future Considerations. Maybe, we'd get a couple of late rounders.

he's a 20-25 goal/50-60 point player...

what's a player like that worth?
- Michael Pachla

Not what he's making now... and that the only important part. 6-7 mil a year should be 70 points a year (min)

Couple offers for Kane already I was told, Botterill turned both down. He's not in a rush to move him, a western conference team has shown some interest in Okposo, we would have to add a piece to move the contract.
- SABRES 89

But doesn't he know that Kane is ruining Jack? Maybe someone should phone him....

I say we trade length and width to help improve our depth.
- Khmylev

This sounds (reads) dirty....

doesn't surprise me


he can get his strange if he wants


or perhaps he has grown out of that phase


pretty easy to blend in, despite being a small city

Only 19 players in the league had 70 last year. I think youre a bit unrealistic with that expectation. Its not the 80's anymore. 60 point players dont grow on trees these days.
All that being said though, please move that contract if you can.

Depends on which team wants him and what that teams needs are, I heard it was a western conference team.
- SABRES 89

I was actually thinking salary wise in your opinion

people were ready to trade kane away for a bag of pucks last season...not so much this season

Duclair can't make it with the Yotes and now some think he has value, not a chance. He couldn't make it with the Rangers either. Another bum this team does not need.
- SABRES 89

Duclair never “didn’t make it” with NYR
He was traded as a prospect still

He scored 20 goals as a rookie with Arizona
Then had a bad year last season
But he’s on pace for 25 goals this season

Duclair might not be a top line winger,
but calling him a bum is quite the overexaggeration

This has been the worst week ever for me Lost my cat lost my iPhone got shorted money now

Ugh ..

Ridiculous I go to church every Sunday what the hell

If we have to add to get rid of Okposo,
we certainly aren’t getting anything of value back

Very true.
I was referring to okposo here though.
If he can be moved then sign kane if you want to. I personally would rather they both go at this point. Having probably 13 plus million combined betwen the two for the next 5 years isnt a recipe for success if you ask me. If i had to have one or the other give me kane at 7 or 7.5 and move okposo. Never liked the signing from day one there.

Probably a player with a contract of similar cap hit with less term i would bet. Another pominville type contract probably.
There has to be something, doubt anyone is taking a 6m hit without shedding some salary.

One day life is going to smack him in the face and he is not going to be able to handle it.

True. But, in these situations doesn't something have to come back? a 6th or a 7th just to make it an actual trade.
