Michigan has a good team, why not go for 1 more shot at the title. And has Mann signed anywhere yet.

Luke Hughes is committed to Michigan as well.

I heard he was gonna have to transfer cuz Jim Harbaugh asked him to sit on his finger and he did it and now everything is weird.

Trade 4: The Sabres acquire Mikko Koskinen and a 2022 second-round pick from the Edmonton Oilers
This is one of the moves I discussed above where I took on short-term salary for an asset. Koskinen has one year remaining on his contract with a $4.5 million cap hit. The Finnish goalie does have a no-trade clause in his deal, but I’d imagine he would waive for an opportunity to play elsewhere. He would essentially be the backup goaltender on this roster (you’ll see the starter soon).

His numbers are not the best, but they’re not terrible either. In Evolving Hockey’s model, he had a -5.36 goals saved above expected number in all situations. He’s not going to drastically change the Sabres fortunes, but that shot-adjusted number is better than a goaltender such as Joonas Korpisalo over the last two years.
How are they getting this guy? Are they just acquiring him with hookers and blow?

I think he forgot to add whoever we are trading in this proposal.

No, we aren’t sending them anything
They’re sending us a 2nd to take Koskinen‘s contract off their hands
We’re essentially giving them Cap space

Those might be the worst moves ever

Chad is just a numbers nerd who’s just full of mediocre ideas

Thanks Dog, I am hoping we are one of the teams he is thinking about.

Might be a good guy to bring in to run the defense and PK, did a good job in Carolina. And is Dundon playing hardball with Rod's assistant coaches. He won't like that.

Thanks for the share.

Interesting, as always.

Dundon, dunnnnnnn!

Rod definitely won't like that, but there's talk that he only wants to coach in Carolina, right?

That's what BINGO said. I don't know how true it is, especially if you were to throw a 4mill a year offer at him. Think he would go to Seattle though before he would think about the Sabres.

No problem, seems like it is gonna be a huge offseason, maybe the biggest in Sabres history.

Agreed.

And especially being that Skinner is here.

Seems peculiar to me that they'd only let one assistant coach seek a head coaching job.

Maybe he's the only one that wants to explore those opportunities right now, perhaps?

Well the only one so far, more information to come in the next week. Doesn't sound like it would just have to be a HC job, just says other opportunities.

Trying to get past the bum and dumb stage.

Avs fans calling their D too soft for not clearing the front of the net. Blaming Girard, Graves and others. The team has 7-ish UFA's , and 4-ish RFA's, plus Eric Johnsons $6m cap hit from LTIR to deal with.

Trade Risto and hold $2m for the 1 year...a big bruising Viking could be appealing.
Who, realistically could they get back?

I think it was worded poorly. Orgs always let their assistant coaches go on interviews.

Guess that means the Sabres didn't talk to NotACenterOtt
