You’re entitled to your opinion, no matter how dumb it is, and I’m entitled to tell you how dumb it is.

not as a center for 2019-20

I mean we have no idea. Maybe the light turns on for him this offseason. Maybe it will turn on for him 2 years from now. Mittelstadt's development is probably the most crucial part of this teams future success moving forward.

I doubt Kessel waives.

We should trade for Kassian, Roussel and Reaves.

My prediction-

Skinner gets 8.5 x 8

Sabres and Tampa swing a deal for Callahan + JT Miller for a pick and prospect
(They clear room for Karlsson, don’t take Risto)

Risto goes to Vancouver or Dallas

Donskoi and Gardiner are the UFA’s we sign

And The living Legend comes back on a 1 year

I think Krueger turns into a Risto-whisperer and Rasmus makes the Chara-like mid20s transformation.

I'll have you know I have been in Buffalo for 8 days and I have yet to hunt one of you MFers down to beat you to a pulp.
I have about 24 hours left here,
so EVERYBODY just watch your damn step.

say skinner walks

trade mccabe, girgens and a 2020 pick for kessel

sign coburn, dzingel, ferland and vanek

olofsson-eichel-kessel
ferland-dzingel-reinhart
vanek-casey-nylander
sheary-e-rod-pommer/okposo

dahlin-risto
coburn-montour
pilut-bogo


(waits for hate)

- homiedclown


Dzingel is a winger
Coburn is slower than Vanek- thought we wanna get faster???
Probably a 0% chance we’d be 1 of the 8 teams Kessel would agree to be traded to
(and Pitt would want more for him too)

I like Ferland though- at the right price

Draft is less then a month away. I’m excited with the amount of intrigue around the top 15 picks or so

Thumbs up on Skinner deal
Can’t afford to lose his goals

Hopefully Miller isn’t the guy we’d target from Tampa
And they’d need to shed more Cap to go after EK

Risto trade...
as long as it brings back a legit return
We need a plan to bring in a top4 RH replacement

Aren’t we bad enough defensively?
Let’s not overpay Gardner
Dahlin is getting the PP1 time, right?

I still don’t get the love for Donskoi
Was playing on line4 for SJ late in the playoffs
Don’t wanna overpay an average player in the hopes Jack can boost his stats

I doubt Pommer is back unless we can get rid of Okposo somehow

You need anyone softened-up while I'm here? Might slow them down and make it easier for you when you come up.

Would buy a botterill jersey if even half of this happened. I don't think he'll make a play in FA though.

And the JT Miller hold up would be his NTC that kicks in July 1. Obviously they can acquire him before that, but it doesn't serve you well to acquire a guy just days before a clause that says he doesnt' want to be in buffalo kicks in*

*I have no idea if we are on that list or not, just a wrinkle worth mentioning.

The combination of Callahan & Miller is $11M off their books.

Why would Buffalo give Tampa anything of significance if they're taking on both of those players to give Tampa tax relief, especially with Miller signed at $5.2M for another 4 years? I would give them a low pick and no prospect if I'm taking on that much cap for them.
