Someone on Twitter once said Asplund is a top 5 Selke guy. And, then people here defended him.

Sure, turning into a fantastic hockey player, and would like him on are team. But like I said What changed from 3 months ago. - Buff36
You seem to beating this drum quite a bit, which is fine...but you don't accept the answer.
Not sure what you're looking for.
Trading away 3 assets with a risk a guy walks for nothing in 2 years is just bad business.
Investing in a guy that they can negotiate an 8 year contract is worth pursuing.
IMO that is a huge difference, which I stated multiple times yesterday.
Now, I also happen to believe the Sabres just drafted their 1C of the future in Savoie. They also, backstopped that with 2 additional picks at C that show alot of promise in Ostlund and Kulich. So in my mind, they have a solid C position...and maybe too many when you throw in Mitts, Cozens and Krebs.
I have also posted that while Skonner - Tage - Tuch was pretty, pretty good...boy I would love for the Sabres to use their pipeline to target L1 talent and use S-T-T for 2nd line duties.
With Savoie, adding Robertson gives them 2/3rds of L1...and it brings some good competition for Quinn, JJP, Kulich etc to see if they have a 1RW on board.
The big difference is
- being able to lock down said player for 8 years
- finding what I believe is their 1C
- having attractive assets to make the trade for a very young PPG player that wasn't playing with a top 10 league talent (Hintz is very good, but no Patrick Kane)

Anyone hear from lon, hope all is well - Buff36
Survived the storm, very glad it hit south of us into Port Chalotte. I do feel horrible for those that received the brunt of it...the storm surge was good awful.
We had lots and lots of rain coupled with high winds. I drained the pool 13 inches, and it filled up about 10" of that. That is a poop ton of rain, especially since we had heavy rains the two previous days, so the land was pretty saturated as is.
No damage here though, thankfully.
We did receive word to expect multiple, multie days without power. And that is really odd because our of 375 homes in our development, only 100 or so are affected, they others have power. Very strange.
The weather forecast shows high temps around 82 degrees for the next week+, so I should be able to muster through it...if I can sleep comfortably at night, and work during the day, it wont be so bad for me.
Next house for sure gets a whole house generator though.

Who says said player doesn't sign, and even if he walks you probably get atleast 2pcs back. But now instead of having extra assets to trade for such player, you are using your only 1st and probably multiple players on top of it. Every trade is a risk

We are hoping Quinn could be half the player Robertson is

Agreed.
Just not equal risk.
We heard about how great of a position the Sabres were in when they had 257 RhD to trade at the TDL a few years back...zero, zip, nada was the result.
Hoping to resign, then having plan B as hoping for a satisfactory return in a trade ..well, that is just bad business. Very bad, a risk that most didn't want.
They are much different scenarios.
There is your answer to the question you have asked repeatidly.
