To be honest I don't know what it is either. 14 mil-ish I would guess?

You're not paid to know. Maybe you are, in that case you're bad at your job

It's 20% of the cap.

Saturday at 12:01 am is the opening of all teams being able to talk to pending UFA's.

No reason to trade for anyone's rights anymore, imo.

Vesey's agent says it would be "silly" for his client not to pursue free agency after what he went though in Nashville. ...

John Wawrow ‏@john_wawrow 5m5 minutes ago
That said, Vesey's agent tells AP that he intends to meet with #Sabres at draft this weekend, and have talks leading up to Aug. 15.

Id be happy to share some of my best moves from the mid-80s early 90s. Almost guaranteed to result in the green light.

I wonder if agents are tougher than the chubby friend roosterblock

Sabres are targeting 3 players at #8, at least on of which GMTM says will be there. Buffalo news says only 2 are dman. Who's the forward, Keller? Nylander? Thinking the d would be the Fin and the Fin and the Russian??

"On Stamkos and the Sabres....

There is little doubt in my mind that Pegula and the Sabres are intensely serious about the Stamkos sweeps. The Sabres will be able to offer more money than anyone and have a good young group of players in place. I do believe that Vesey will sign in Buffalo as well. There are those who are dismissing the Sabres in the Stamkos sweepstakes...I was one of them until the past week or so...but I can tell you with great certainty that they are serious about Stamkos and will be a player in the sweepstakes..."

OH (frank).....

The Stamkos at all costs thing has got to go. 12mill a year for 7 is just crazy. How many cups has he won in Tampa, with a really good team????
Not worth it. Get Vesey on board, and spend some money on D.

12mil a year, how's that for logic. The team is being built properly. We don't need Stamkos doesn't fit the build. Vesey, or another LW, and a scoring D man (Shattenkirk would be a good candidate), and we'll be fine.

One of either Stamkos or O'Reilly would need to play wing I would think. And since both of them have done this throughout their careers, I don't see the problem with that.
- HonkFortheGoose


But maybe Stamkos drops 50% of his production if you move him to wing. You good with that ?

Is it really worth giving up an asset or two for three days?

I am not sure Tampa would even want to trade his rights. There still may be a mutual interest between the two. And if Tamp is seriously trying to trade Bishop, it is for Stamkos.

I would think that Tampa would want the time to see if they can trade Bishop.
