Little late for either team. Ken Holland should not be trusted to make anymore moves. He’s a dinosaur and doesn’t understand today’s NHL. You can have all the talent offensively you want , to win championships you need Leadership, defense, and above all CHEMISTRY.

Buffalo is baffling, Kevyn Adam’s had to know putting a raw goalie ( no matter how talented ) in to carry a team to a long awaited playoff spot was ridiculously STUPID ! I will never understand this decision.

Katz keeps hiring bad GMs. Still, if Edmonton had even average goaltending they'd be in a playoff spot. Buffalo isn't a good enough team still so while goaltending is weak, nothing on that team is good enough to compete.

Ken Holland is probably the worst GM in the last two decades. He turned the Red Wings into a complete dumpster fire before he finally was forced out. It's pretty impressive what Yzerman has done considering he had to build the current roster from scratch and had almost nothing to build from. Holland is terrible with asset management. He refused to do a rebuild in Detroit and left the team in salary cap hell with no talent. The rebuild in Detroit started the day Yzerman took over.

I don't see it. Wondering if BOS and Ulmark is still in play...BOS would get Skinner + some prospects + picks, and likely Feoegle (to make the money work out). BOS then flips those +Grzelcyk for scoring help, e.g., to Calgary for Lindholm...

Just what Buffalo needs another below average backup goalie.

Buffalo's issue is team defense. Goalies are ok... ish.

He's currently 3.72 GAA with a .899% over 18 games. His career is 3.05/ 905%. Not exactly jumping off the page.
