Bumping my own post, lol.
Let's get it started in here!!!
Where are all you lurkers/1st time posters....jump in man, waters warm, beer is cold - IonSabres
7th - Turcotte, Caufield, Boldy, seem to be the consensus picks here. I do not know much about them, so I am deferring to the knowledge of others.
30/31st - trade it.
FA - depends on what the return is for the trade to focus on need. I'd say right now it's a 2C so Hayes is my choice right now.
Surprise - whatever the return is for Risto. Hopefully it's a decent piece from Tampa. |

I'd trade that other 1st we have just to dump Okposo, a lot to give up but get him and his contract off this team. - SABRES 89
Been saying this for months. That 6 million in cap space will be used on a better player then who we draft at 31 and will be on our roster this year. |

Okposo will bring back a bad contract. They won't be able to move him otherwise.

okposo, late first and cj mith
see what it fetches - homiedclown
Can’t we just put Okposo in Hossa’s equipment, call it a rash and LTIR him? Or is that only for large market clubs? |

It's going to be like the callahan situation. You have to add to it, to get something of value.
At face value, you'll get nothing for Okposo alone. |

Then either buy him out or just live with it.
Do NOT trade something of value just to get rid of something with none. It never works out. |

Like trading away a premium goal scorer because he didn’t fit and making it to the ECF never? |

Who said $8m though?
McKenzie said between $8.5m and $9.5m, and it was his feeling on it...not a quote from those sources.
It may be splitting hairs, but if he came in at $8.75m x 8 you get $70m. That $8.75 is right in line with McKenzie's thoughts...so why do you say he us ignoring what has been reported, by 1 man? The others are leeching onto him.
Unless they changed math, and the order of numbers in a Base 10 system, then Boss is spot on.
TBH, I too have been thinking the same as Bossman. - IonSabres
Boss is was saying under 9
If what he means by that is 8.75,
then that .25mil is pretty much negligible |

I need to consult with a few posters before I comment on that

Forgetting ROR, and Skinner for a moment, let's move onto other interesting subjects...
I hope you all took the advice to WAKE-UP and EDJUMOCATE yourselves since yesterday's visit from Mr. Knowledgeable!
Who is your pick at 7 OA?
Who is your pick at 30/31?
Who is your #1 FA target?
Who is your surprise acquisition?
Backup your thoughts as best you can.
GO...Wtf? - IonSabres
Dream scenario...
7th- Byram or Turcotte
30/31- Spencer Knight(goalie)
*none of these guys are likely to be available though
FA target- i don’t really wanna overpay anyone available... I’d pass for the most part
Possibly realistic acquisition, that I’d REALLY like- W.Karlsson
Surprise acquisition- hmmmm....
I’ll have to get back to you on that

at pick 7
assuming byram and cozens are gone, dach because he can play center or rw, big and plays with an edge
at pick 30/31,Afanasayev, could be a beast if he falls, otherwise the best D that falls to us,
fa target, assuming the big fish go elsewhere, Brett Connolly as he appears to be a late bloomer
surprise acquisition, Ryan Getzlaf ducks eat a chunk and we get him on the cheap |

Solid post.
Dach and Krebs are both growing on me.
Getzlaf would be interesting for sure |

Saw this trade proposed on cap friendly seems interesting at least.
CGY gets: Rasmus Ristolainen, Artturi Lehkonen, 2019 6th round pick (MTL)
BUF gets: Jonathan Drouin, Oliver Kylington, 2019 4th round pick (NYI)
MTL gets: T.J. Brodie, Conor Sheary, Spencer Foo, 2020 2nd round pick (CGY), 2019 4th round pick (SJ)
Not sure mtl would move drouin and I don’t know a ton about kylington, seems like solid value. |
