foligno, girgens, pick #8, 2018 first rd pick

sign and trade

- homiedclown



And we keep Sam?
I'd do that in a heartbeat

Would still need to figure out the defense though

IM DOWN. But I would think they would maybe see Reinhart as a replacement for JT. Gotta think they would want a top end center prospect (even tho Reinhart is more of a RW at the moment)

We need to figure it out regardless, so I'd pick Foligno up and carry him to the airport if I had to in this scenario.

Well in this scenario you could afford to move Reinhart for a d-man in a separate trade

antipin and guhle is good start


then you only need 1 guy and if antipin plays on the right, like I heard, sign alzner

The average top-6 guy will play around 1640 minutes over a season. Okposo is by all means our #1 RW. 154 minutes is not that much.
- BeadyEyedDouche

Oh I agree, but they played the equivalent of like 10 games together

But that's likely where the Sabres start at
If Eichel's agent starts at 9, it'll be somewhere in between
7.5 sounds right to me

Sure, I wasn't really implying they didn't play together at all, just over-exaggerating the fact he only played like 15% of the time with him.

Me too...
and I like Foligno more than most on here
The hate on him has gone WAY too far
He's been a solid, consistent performer for the past 2 seasons

Connor mcdavid's going to sign for the max contract and if the Edmonton Oilers don't give him it


He will just sign an offer sheet and then they will just match it

So you guys are getting JT without giving up Reinhart? I think that's a bit optimistic.

if you can dump moulson to a team needing to add cap, bring back gionta


if moulson is needed to stay to land jt, you wish gionta well this summer

Nylander is going to need a miracle to get his body ready for the upcoming season

I think one more full year in the AHL is good for him
