Any rumors as to what the value of what Ristolainen is currently?

If you think youre getting a top 10 center for a fading, slightly above average goalie, and #3, youre nuts.

Its Zegras or Drysdale, or we are hanging up the phone

The poster didn't even include #3.

It's Gibson and some "filler pieces". 😂

As much as I want JE… Drysdale is even more untouchable than Z …
The trade with us is centered around Gibson for JE and some filler pieces on both sides that make each team happy.

Some Saber fans insist a high end F has to come back and while I understand that we just aren’t in the position to give up offensively talented players…
So like I say …. Sabers need a goalie in the worst way… and that we can trade ….

I just don't see Anahiem wanting to make this kind of deal. Eichel needs to play on a team where there is some elite talent already in place. The Ducks would be insane to abandon their rebuild program before it is even really starting to show results.

I've been saying this for weeks. But that's the Ducks' problem if they want to do that.

I was assuming when he said "centered around" #3 was included.

Easy pass if Gibson (who I like alot) is the centerpiece with a little added.
Moving on from the Ducks, like I said last night, they would have to gut their future.
They make no sense.

Now, if they happen to offer up proper trade value ... I'm all for it.

The fact that he said "Sabers" says it all.

Hi everyone, Gibson is a good/great goalie, and also an unacceptable return

Well, Comtois, Zegras and Drysdale combine for 132 NHL games between them...so, he must be thinking of them as the "filler pieces"

Gibson
Comtois
Zegras
Drysdale

Wonder if we could get Jones and Terry added if we include Olofsson.

Anyone who listens to RJ the past few years and enjoys it is into sadism.

He isn't just mis-pronouncing names. He flat out rambles in a raspier voice than Bob Dylan, is clearly hammered 90% of the time and we have a guy who can call games right now who isn't half bad.

Ok there has to be story here.

Was it because of the bar?

And why were you in the hotel so much?

Columbus has the number 5 pick. They are going to trade Jones for a serious return. Are they also going to shop Laine? Nobody knows. If, as reported, Columbus is going all in on Eichel, hard to imagine any other team being able to match the package the Jackets can offer.

Eichel feeding Laine could be very sweet. But, could one clubhouse handle both those personalities?

I can see the Sabres having as many as four first round picks in the 2021 draft.
