IF Skinner is traded (JC, this place will be unbearable unless the return is astronomical), what are everyone's desires/expectations on a return?

What would everyone like to see?
- Powerslave

I bet it would be A LOT less then what everyone would be expecting including me...

olives and pizza is a bad fit. every time.
- LandlordTom

olives fit really well in the garbage

I didn't say he is "Not good anymore" I said i wont pay 9mil for a 55 point player. Is he a good player? Yes. Is he this god that everyone makes him out to be? No. He is over rated and over hyped. We would regret it almost immediately IMO.

He is not a 55 point player but don't let facts stop you.

Opinions vary.
- SABRES 89

On this, they shouldn't

So are we talking past or now? I mean do you want to deal with facts and reality?

He is more than a point a game player this year. What matters is what he is doing now not 5 years ago.

Like I said, don't let facts get in the way.

I am sorry but moving Skinner is another huge mistake if they do it. The Sabres just keep letting established players leave or trading them for what? POTENTIAL.... Who in this organization is a 50 goal scorer to replace him and who in the draft can score 50 goals especially when they will likely draft 9th or 10th... Another move to keep them in the MEDIOCRE zone...

I've never really advocated for Duchene until ROR left and it was obvious that CM would need another year or two. Duchene is no god, but he would create an entire scoring line with his presence. I for one would like to score more than 1 goal a game.

Mushrooms and green olives is my go to.

He's not getting traded. Jason knows what his demands are, and they haven't asked him to lift his NMC.

Yeah judge someone on one year(contract year) and not what they have done since 2009. Thank you for changing my mind. You are right, he is an elite player worth 9m. What was i thinking?

I would go all in on Stone or Simmonds.

So Eichel and Mattews have never had 70 points.

Where to even start with your logic.

Duchene would benefit Reinhart.

GROSS!

- SABRES 89

This team would make the playoffs with Duchene from the beginning of the season.

Yes i forgot they are both in their 11th seasons. Both 28 years old (prime) as well. Thank you again, for changing my mind.

Preach on

Eklund is fear mongering and peddling his crap because of Friedman's speculation. GTFO of here.

- SABRES 89

I would think Huberdeau and Skinner might be a fine match, too.

Heck, let's get them both.
