I know this is a stretch but just a guess on my part but the only teams that might, and a big might consider CJ would be Pitt and Washington. If Holtby goes down, the Caps pin their hopes on Grubauer for their playoff run. In Pitt Zatkoff is the back up. If they want a little depth in goal they might be interested in Johnson.

I think he's here though for the rest of the year.

That's what I'm saying. Guessing he'll want a multi year deal though. 2-3 years. Hopefulluy Murray makes it clear it would only be on year.

Edmonton and Toronto low balling everyone makes Murray's attempt to make the Sabres better quicker, more difficult.

I think they're in a win/win with both McGinn and Johnson...trade or no trade they're both real good role players on the sabres

We were most likely only getting picks in return for our UFAs anyways
No matter how desperate a team is,
I can't imagine someone would give us a 1st for mcginn
Best we might get back is a 2nd & another pick

Stupid Leafs screwed us out of getting anything decent for Johnson
Legwand prob only returns a low round pick as well

Agreed. Maybe tomorrow but more likely Monday. Legwand might be the only guy they move.

Predators and Rangers are perhaps only teams left in goalie market. Lots available: Khudobin, Hiller, Zatkoff, Johnson, more. #TradeCentre

Murray can always trade Johnson at the draft.

Garth is high...nobody trades for the UFA rights of a back up goaltender

I wouldn't want Johnson here after next year because I think Ullmark should be up full time for 2017-2018. McGinn I think will 100% get traded but I wouldn't mind keeping him.

I'd much rather get rid of the dead weight but I don't think Murray will or can on some of the fronts.

I think ture forgetting garth realizes the only reason johnson isn't a starter is for the fact is he stuck behind the depth of the sabres goalies. It's really not fair to johnson.

I like the idea of Ullmark as the full time starter in Rochester next year
I think it'll be better for his development than playing 20 games up here
No need to rush his development

Doubled down with a source today: Nothing cooking between L.A. and Buffalo other than tonight’s game. No trade chatter. #Sabres

Makes sense with them closing in on Purcell/Schultz

I still think McGinn/Franson package to FLA makes a lot of sense.

NotreDame lost 3-2 last night...
Hurley scored & looked pretty good
I've seen better games from Peterson, but he was ok

Rematch tonight at 7 on nbcsports for anyone that cares to watch

Hence why I said 2017-2018 which is two years away.

Does Garth have a day job? Because he is the most ridiculous "blogger/journalist/self-appointed expert I've ever seen.

Oh I don't read his blogs either. I was referring to him tweeting that Johnson's rights could get traded at the deadline.

I read his blogs. I don't discriminate. Most of the time his proposals are video game like but that doesn't make them any less entertaining.
