Great trade.

Sabres are moving on UP! Eichel must be ecstatic.

Exactly. Hoping he is this team’s version of the Cookie Monster.

It’s certainly somewhat faster with Skinner, Sheary and Dahlin. But Sabotka, Berglund and Thompson don’t add much to the speed department.
- PrinceChill

Botterill talked of speed on the wing. The addition of Skinner obviously gives a speed boost, but the other effect is that it pushes Erod (probably) to a 3LW spot with Berglund in the middle.

So speed wise, you're looking at a 1-2-3 punch of Skinner, Sheary and ERod on the left.

Who knows whether Skinner goes with Eichel or Mitts, but the speed benefit down the lineup is nice.

Went from a terrible left side to a pretty nice one

Most goals from the 2010 draft class

Tyler Seguin- 229
Jeff Skinner- 204
Taylor Hall- 191
Tarasenko- 178 (albeit a couple seasons shorter then the rest)

Anybody know who Jim Faux is?

La who za her. Must be one of Gerbe’s Gumba’s. Way to blow

Love me some Alexis Fawks. Oh, my.

Somebody forward the EK thread where he called this trade. I don't remember seeing it....

Botts is delivering on what he said he was going to do:

1) changing up the core - re: ROR, Kane and Lehner gone
2) more speed
3) great drafts (with some luck thrown in)
4) a good UFA goalie signing

If he can somehow shed one of our legacy contracts (Bogo comes to mind), it would be a 10 out of 10 summer. As it sits now, about 9.5.

Oh and we still have 3 1st rounders next year (conditionally)!

Skinman Cometh is ineffingenius though. That and the fact i was able to quote this post. It’s got to be hard not to be impressed.

I'd be fine if they just shed some bottom-6/bottom pairing guys. Girgs, larsson, Beaulieu, Bailey, etc. Too many names for too few spots as it stands

What an awesome trade. He’s got to be playing with Eichel. Bring on 40. Come on.
