“Somebody told me Buffalo told their guys, ‘Be prepared to draft for a second first-rounder in case we get one for O’Reilly.’" #Sabres #Habs #SJSharks #Coyotes

Yea just got a message saying ROR is looking like a post July 1st Trade since no team wants to give up a top 10 pick

From who?
You’ve got a legit source?

Also,
If the Bonus is the issue...
can’t we just include $2mil in cash as part of a trade?

I’ve posted his stuff here before Sabres Intel on twitter. If it’s right it’s right, if it’s wrong it’s something to talk about.

That someone would take a shot at him based on his stats from the year before

Worse goalies have been traded for

I thought someone said he was the new name of Sabres Insiderrrr

There is no way that O'Reilly gets us into the top 10

Then there's no reason to move him today imo

Trades and salary retention
Prior to the reintroduction of the cap, it was fairly common (especially for wealthier teams) to include cash as part of a trade and/or retain some or most of a player's salary when trading him to another team. This was usually done when the club needed roster space for (an)other player(s) and could afford the extra costs. Under the terms of the 2005 collective bargaining agreement, when a team traded for another player, it assumed the full cap hit and remaining salary obligations of the acquired player. Including cash in a trade was also forbidden. That was partially changed for the 2013 collective bargaining agreement. Including cash in trades is still prohibited, but teams may retain part of a traded player's salary to ease the cap burden on the acquiring team. Provisions on such retention are as follows:

1. The acquiring team must assume at least 50 percent of the remaining salary and cap charge of the SPC.
2. Such a contract can only be traded twice using provision 1 during the lifetime of the SPC.
3. Retained salary by the trading team cannot be more than 15 percent of the upper salary cap limit.
4. A maximum of 3 such contracts with salary retained in a trade can be on a team's books at any one time.

This provision is included in Article 11 of Summary of Terms the 2013 Collective Bargaining Agreement Memorandum of Understanding.[13]

I don’t even care. He is gone and I’m happy about it. I said he won’t be in the league in two years time a long time ago.

Congratulations. You are openly excited that someone on our team failed and you get to be right. How awesome...

Personally, I would have rather been wrong and had the team be successful, but hey, that's just me....

I’m not happy that I had to watch that poop show for as long as I did. I’m happy that I can now watch decent goaltending going forward.
