It is? He makes $2M in actual salary next season as his bonus was already paid.

But isn't his cap hit $6.5 million?

I could have sworn we already had a 6M bottom six guy.

Hmm.

- TheSabresTaco


His salary is only $2M, and if they're not going to spend to the cap, it makes sense.

If they're not spending to the cap anyway and they're using actual salary as their barometer, his $2M salary makes cents.

Lots of teams expected to take a flier on Alex Galchenyuk. As #NRD previously reported, Detroit is one of those teams that will seek to bring in the former 3rd pick on a “prove-it” contract. Buffalo as well.

Correct! I have consulted the great knights of Ni! They request the Sabres rookie of GM Adams These things of 3!

1. The disgruntled fin, Jesse Pujuliivi. Which I will never spell correctly.

2. Adams changes his name and spells it correctly. Kevin. The Knights of Ni are highly offended at this spelling and will wish a continued plague upon thee... Ni! Ni!

3. A.... SHRUBBERY!!!

The knights of Ni! Have spoken! NI! Ni!... NI!

His name was rumored to be on the move during the season. If I was Vancouver I wouldn't trade him, but if they are looking to move him as rumored Adams needs to be on the phone

I like this idea too. He’d be a really nice 4lw. Does he come in cheaper than grigs?

Clifford. Lazar Larry. Concussed Larry...

I don’t mind that as a 4th line.

I think they may need something better at 3c to take pressure off Cozens...

Let’s hope Adams can keep the train rolling.

I think they are dumping a few vets on the cheap

I'd like to see them add Antoine Roussel


put him on the third line and clifford on the 4th line and you got a few bangers that can actually put up some points

I would send quite a bit for him, my only hesitation is he only has 2 more years left on his contract BUT he would still be a RFA sooooo go get him?

It shouldn't even be talked about, you go grab him. I'd give the 8th up also in the deal if I had to.

Who do you like for the defense?

2LD? - moving McCabe to 3LD. How’s Marc Staal playing these days? Maybe a Krug?

Do you target a 1RD for Dahlin, Something like they did with Staal. Vet with a year or 2 left? Or can Shultz fix his game for a year or is he done. What do the fancy stats look like?
