Just saw it on Instagram. Apparently Sabres have acquired Jesse Puljujärvi in a 3 way with Dallas/Edm. Not seeing anywhere else though. If true we sent Nelson/Sheary and a 2020 2nd as the outgoing assets.

Puljujärvi Might just need a change of Scenery and he might become that stud that he was supposed to be

Hey Vegas take a wild guess......Think Gusev's name might be on this list? #Sabres and countless other #NHL teams are likely dialing a certain 702 number to see what's up? This is only going to get more interesting by the day. #GoldenKnights #Vegasborn #VGK #NHL

I'd be ok with it, dumping Sheary would be good, but at the cost of a 2nd? Like I say Ok, but I guess I would rather keep him as our 13th F than lose a 2nd in next years draft to send him away for just 1 year remaining.
Interesting none the less.

Is Botts playing golf today? Not sure if he is part of the WGR tournament.

Just curious as to what it was through. Not seeing anything.

Looking at the holes in the roster, then a 2c, a 1 or 2RW, and top pairing partner for Dahlin remain IMO.
I love the moves for Miller and Johansson, and am onboard with the one for Vesey, but those holes are still there and Vesey and Johansson slot as 3rd liners on a playoff team. They can play up in spells.

The challenge from my perspective is the 2C, immediate need versus long-term. Longer term I think Mitts or Cozens takes that spot...so do they spend valuable capital for a short-term solution...seems like bad asset management to me unless the cost is very reasonable.

Skinner- John Jack- sambo

Looks pretty solid. Still not sold on Sam, but whatever
Something about 100 points in the last 120 games?
Seems like a 1st liner.

Goaloffson- 2c- Johansson
Sheary-mitts- pommer
Okposo- erod- girgs

What could possibly go wrong?
Need mitts to step up to 2c/ find a 2c

That's absurd.

Marroon won the cup this year
Tom Wilson beat reaves in the cup the year before.

Gone? More like winners

We need Sam to anchor the 2nd line, not just put up advanced stats that suggest he might be able to. Jack and Jeff have shown they don't need Sam to be a top end 1st line.

Let everyone else fight for their spots.

Good post

So we have our 1rw on the roster ?

Or need to upgrade?

I was just reading the Calgary blog about the Kadri deal that didn't happen. It seems very odd that he nixed that deal but then Toronto was able to find an actual better deal days later. I'd think that the Colorado deal was at least in the works - I'd take Barrie and Kerfoot every day of the week over what was coming back in the Calgary trade.

Is that accurate? I mean, I always wondered why Sylvester left and it was rebranded The Instigators. I thought it was more of a way to get the alum involved as I believe they work for the organization on that.

It wouldn't shock me if they didn't but I was unaware.

The only thing I question/disagree on that is with VO on the second line. If anyone could make the jump from AHL to the second line it would be him. But history of this board shows we massively over rate our prospects.

Idk, they didnt have the same chemistry as Blessing and Robitalle. I remember as a kind thinking Brian and Mike didnt like each other.
