Marchment frightens me.

Where are the Burakovsky rumors coming from?

- Powerslave


From a dollars and sense perspective, Burakovsky frightens me much more.

If signing Marchment goes bad, you only have 3 seasons invested at $2.5M per.

If the Burakovsky signing goes bad, you're in for 7 seasons at over $6M per.

I am really not expecting much to tell you the truth, writing was written the first 2 off-season moves. I hope for a surprise.

Expecting them to put a cap floor team on the ice is asking too much.

How did this happen?

That definitely isn't.

Drooling over every rumor is. I guess that's why we're all here, though.

There's no reason to be on a rumor site and read about rumors.

Do you take Matt Murray and 7 for 41? Or 28?
- TheSabresTaco


Yeah, why not?
Tons of Cap room
And Murray was actually “ok” last year

Can always bury him in Rochester & bring up UPL

Ottowa won't be trading away a top 10 pick just to get rid of a contract

Maybe a second but not a top 10 pick unless they are getting good assets back

- dmarsden2988


Murray & pick 7 to Buffalo
Ottawa gets Olofsson (they’re looking for a RW)

Bryan Marchment has passed away at the age of 53.
Marchment played for the Winnipeg Jets, Chicago Blackhawks, Hartford Whalers, Edmonton Oilers, Tampa Bay Lightning, San Jose Sharks, Toronto Maple Leafs, Colorado Avalanche and Calgary Flames during his 17-year NHL career. He worked as a scout with the Sharks following his retirement. Our deepest condolences go out to his family and friends for their loss.

Murray and 7 for a 3rd…

7 and 9 for 2

Cooley
Yurov
Miro

Or

Nazar at 7
Savoie at 9
Yurov at 16
Miro at 28

- Stripes77


Move up a couple spots from 7 to get Jiricek
Move up a couple spots from 9 to get Savoie

*we’ve got lots of draft capital with extra picks these next 2 years, plus Portillo & Johnson could be used

Then at 16 & 28, it wouldn’t much matter
We could just take whoever falls to us
If it’s the Russians, it’s ok to take the risk since we got Jiricek & Savoie already
If we wanna play it a bit safer & just take whoever else falls that we like, that’s fine too

We should absolutely see what it takes to get pick 7 from Ottawa though

- Buff36

The Anaheim Ducks would like to get goalie John Gibson’s contract off their books. He’s got five years left with a $6.5 million AAV and a no-movement clause which could be tough for some teams to swallow.



sounds like the sabres and olofsson
