You never trade a proven NHL player !! For draft picks unless you get a proven one back in the trade!!!!!! ROR trade yes Thompson is the one out of Sh! T we got back finally showing improvement!! The other isn’t here yeti! Rhino is a talented point producer!! And he stand in front or the net!! That is few and far that do that!!!

I just don't know why a team would acquire risto and not use him on the PP. It's like buying a miata to go offroading

I just don’t get why you trade all that for your #4 D man (Ellis is ahead of him but has played like 6 games all year)

The fact that the Sabres just acquired a goalie who might be worse than Aaron Dell absolutely blows my mind.

Why did risto need to stand in front on the pp? A defenseman....
Seems like a guy that was " known" for standing in front or the net, would be that guy?

They are tying to pick early.

You think he's actually worse? Dell is pretty trash. Subban at least seemed to have nhl backupesque numbers for the Hawks last year.

He has absolutely atrocious numbers in the AHL currently.

He had awful numbers for Chicago last year.

Hopefully they don't give much of anything up. 7th rounder, future considerations or bust.

Good post

Seems like more of a "appease the fans" move.

Definitely not a move that screams playoff bound.

Dell just can't be in net again.......

You put a man in front of the net to score on deflections and tip ins !! And to block the goalies view ie TimKerr!!!

Yup, had to do something it seems. Subban isn't taking us anywhere, but he's hopefully more solid than Dell's swiss cheese ass. Still a bit surprised UPL hasn't gotten a game. Oh twell.

That too. Just no picks. If we somehow gave up anything here, for a guy that was on waivers this year, we're drunk at the wheel again.

a 7th would be an overpayment.

Adams is just atrocious when it comes to goalies.
