I complain about the Sabres as much as anyone, but that's a fine package for Reinhart. If anyone would have said the Sabres could trade Risto and Sam for 2 1sts, a 2nd, a fun player and goalie prospect, we'd have taken it in an instant.

We probably could get a 2nd for Vatrano at the deadline too.

Ugh Momma cover up that Vodka belly

If we get Florida's 2022 1st, Levi and Vatrano I think its a win.

We're soooorrrttta trying...maybe?

Well if they get this trade done maybe Vegas takes him

Girgenson came up through the USHL and weas doing 49 points in 51 games. Which is almost identical to what Cozens did his draft year, 53 points in 57 games.
- Mentalorgasm5

Your stats pull was from the year before Cozens was drafted, in his D-1 season.

Cozens was drafted the year after that, when he had 84 in 68 games.

27 and a UFA after this year. If he is coming in the trade makes sense to trade him.

Max had trouble finishing and staying on his feet. He had all the tools but couldn't put it together.

Hearing there is some traction on Cam Atkinson to PHI.

he seems to score driving to, and being around, the net...gotta like that
- Michael Pachla

This kid looks like he could play right now. Holy strong on the puck, Batman. Nose for the net.

I like. Very much.

Would have rather taken a shot with Noel, big power winger who can skate goes to the dirty area's and can throw down when needed.

He doesn't battle on the boards either which is what the Sabres need. No speed up the middle and no battle on the boards, the Sabres passed many times to make him a pillar of their organization and I, personally, don't think they are going to miss him too much.
- GilPerreault11

I have no issues with them moving him but it needs to be a good trade

60 point players are important for any franchise.

Especially ones that take a literal beating in front of the net to score the dirty area goals, and that don't miss games

Im not sure what else is involved here -- if anything -- but there's a Cam Atkinson-Jakub Voracek deal being worked on between Columbus and Philadelphoa

My guess is Florida is working on an extension and Vatrano is to move salary out.

Noel doesn't do that.

CBUS will have to retain a little I would think. That contract is the overwhelming smell of ass in the stall next to you at work. Not the smell of a fart, not the smell of poop, the overwhelming smell of ass.

You know what I mean, unfortunately.

Edit: For Voracek well I'll be damned.

his biggest problem was that he never used that skill and edge work to drive to the net...the infamous "max-curl" along the half-wall was his downfall as he never had the balls to go to the dirty areas

Agree, think there's more than just the 1st next year coming back

10-year career in the NHL is still 3 years longer than the average NHL career. He went to play in the KHL. Only just retired this past year.

Leave Maxi-poo alone.

Don't see any preliminary moves that says Eichel is going to that team.

Rumors of salary being moved out just isn't happening which would be one sign or the sabres taking back salary is an alternative.

I am not saying he was a bad player. I think he had the tools to be an 80-100 point player but just didn't put it all together.

I will never understand why people criticize and single out Afinogenov when basically that entire team was as soft as custard.

Afinogenov dropped the gloves once and a while, too.

The Sabres only have about 43,550 million on their cap right now which includes Jack and when he is gone that brings it down to 33,550. They are going to have to make some deals for salary because they have to hit the floor and I think it has to be 60% of 80+ million, Dahlin will make up some of that. Goalies will help.
