Botterill knew to cash in on O’Reilly before it was too late. I trust he will do the same with others

It’s ok, Botterill got the best player in the offseason besides Tavares in Skinner.

We’re much better with the lineup this year than last year

We’d be even better if ROR was still here instead of the scrubs we got for him
Maybe I’ll be wrong about Thompson & he will turn out?
Or maybe those picks will turn into good players in a few years?

The Skinner trade was great...
IF we can keep him
Still tbd

JB had an almost perfect off season. I'd return Sheary though.

Meh, if he sucks we are out a 4th round pick. I’m not losing sleep.

The Sheary trade was a good one
Potential good rewards with little risk

Hunwick and Sheary both have another year on their deals.

If JB knew he'd get Skinner, Olofsson would light up the AHL, Girgs would be one of our best players, and Elie would be available on waivers, I don't think he'd have made that trade.

Lot of hindsight there. Worst move in a great offseason.

They can bury Hunwick and save the ~$1M next year(Is it $950K still? I thought it topped out around there a few years before CBA renewal), or unfortunately nothing unless the Sabres are a cap team next year and he can go to LTIR if he's done and the Sabres need the space.

Girgs is one of our best players? I learn something new every day.

Sure, best forward not on our top line so far. Obviously that needs to change, but he deserves the credit.

1.025m....sure that's an option. Need to avoid LTIR, though I still have no clue how serious his injury is.

I'm just not a big Sheary fan. It made a lot more sense before landing Skinner.

Well Botts didn’t know he could get Skinner when he pulled the Sheary trade

It’s not like we gave anything up for Sheary

And Sheary did look decent on Jack’s wing
I get that u can’t break up that line right now,
but Skinner wasn’t really producing much away from Jack either

We’ve really gotta find some kind of line combos for our middle6 that can yield some scoring

He has 5 points.

Sam, with 8, is invisible.

Sheary - 5 goals, 8 points = "worst move"

Girgs - 1 goal, 5 points = "one of our best players"

Of course he would still make the trade. We still need more forwards to put the puck in the net, not fewer
