Quick Summary of names left over past threads of interest:

Haula
Tierney - talks about JGP stalled so they went to Tierney
Donato
Kerfoot - Toronto wants a lot since he’s on good term
Athanasiou
Trocheck
Yost

Trocheck is main target with Dman being focus of return. Looking at one of Risto/Pilut/Montour with other pieces going back

Price is low on others but doesn’t seem like JB wants to budge much and other big names don’t want to come to BUF

- Beezer33


Is there anybody on that list that really excites anyone?
IMO, Trocheck would be the best.
The rest are meh, 3rd line centers
Cue to JCraig

What is gonna happen, Botts has to bring someone in TODAY that help's the now and the future. This team can still make some noise this year. For the write return I think that 1st should be in play.

Does it make it a bit more difficult for Botterill to sell knowing they are on a bit of a roll and within range of a playoff spot? Does he trade for a player with term, hence being a buyer?

Just a guess but maybe what he does is move Frolik or ERod for mid round picks and hangs onto Sheary and Vesey. He could move a dman along with a pick or a prospect for a player that could help immediately and with term.

I'd also give my 4th nut for Domi if he's actually on the market

I don't see us in the mix for AA but maybe Trocheck although I kinda doubt it. They could trade for an under the radar player nobody is talking about.

I hope we don’t sell Larry vesey etc for 5th round picks. It makes no sense.

I hope we do add someone decent though. Give the current players some hope / moral boost

Yes, there are teams out there that are hurting, Carolina has had some major injuries. He has the chips to make a deal that could help now and future

And he's gotta find a player that has been through some wars, playoff hockey guy who been through the grind and knows what it takes, it would help these young kids.

I made a somewhat lengthy post yesterday about some AHL prospects I wouldn't mind getting. Carolina is in an interesting situation.

I don't see them doing nothing. They'll make a move, maybe two.

Possibly but they will be extremely minor moves. They LIKE the group they have in place...

It could happen.

Do we move a dman? Maybe that will happen at the draft.
