Goals above replacement. It's a general indicator of how much a player helps his team, overall. There's EV and PP breakdowns, so it gives you an idea of what a certain player is particularly good at.

More or less, it tells you, is this player replacable, and/or is he hurting me.

Thank you for this btw, I have a Tage Thompson score when it comes to statistics

Or is it considered analickticks

Compher 32 points, we have enough average players on this team, pass.
- SABRES 89



I was giving 7oa and 30oa yesterday, until stripes showed me the way.

Compher is gritty and on the way up in my opinion.

He should pair with Nelson if he wants that GAR up.

I think you spelled gar wrong - pretty close though

https://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Jan-Levine/Hockey-Buzz-Mock-Draft-moves-on-ColoBuffalo-trade-Sabres-pick-in-LA-up/89/99900

The 4th overall pick was traded from Colorado to Buffalo with the Sabres selecting Alex Turcotte

The trade:

To Buffalo
4OA
J.T. Compher
*Rights to Brassard (*conditional 2020 2nd if he does not resign)

To Colorado
7OA
30/31OA
Alexander Nylander

Does anyone say no to this trade (besides Colorado)? Of course, it's contingent on Chicago picking Byram over Turcotte.

- buffalofan19


As the GM for the Mock Draft, I made this deal.
Typical rhetori!c, but I could not believe he threw in JT, let alone Brassard rights / 20200 2nd.

Btw, Chicago made their pick in Byram. So unless it is vetoed as being too lopsided, Sabres will select Alex Turcotte. I suspect it will get vetoed, many hidden agendas and bias toward just saying no. Typical HB.

Gee, you don't say. Time to move on from old players we had in the farm or on this team.
- SABRES 89


Jt on this team?

You're right, he is average. Not sure how much more he'll develop. But average is leagues better than Vlad. Not saying we need to replace Vlad with Compher, but I am saying we need to replace Vlad, and Compher would be the positive direction.
- TheSabresTaco



He's also not the main piece in that proposed deal.

The idea would be to land Turcotte. Compher is just a means to even things out.

Arm Chair GM has Buffalo trading Reinhart for Gostisbehere...

Just what Buffalo needs...another defensemen that needs to be sheltered with O-Zone starts.

Keep Skunk draft Byram, remember Okposo is going to pot 25 bingos next season. Beady said so.

What kind of value do you put on compher?

Maybe 30oa and nylander?

I think 30oa is still too much for him especially this time of the year.

Deadline time it's a different story

I say we have Skinner locked up, no need to rush now, let's wait and see what is available.

I like E Kane but, his deal is really bad and people complain about Skinner.

It's an overpayment but I am okay with it

I would rather have Skinner at $9 million than Kane at $7 million

If Kane was 5-6 a year, that's different.

We need defensemen that are good at playing defense not ones that get 61% O-Zone starts

I am not moving Reinhart anywhere unless its for something crazy

They need to add goals and offense

This is Botts shopping list

1 top 6 Winger
1 2nd line center
1 top 4 stay at home defensemen
1 team to take Okposo

I was reading an SB nation blog that's already talking compliance buyout during the next CBA. He's a player you love for $5m for 5 years. 7x7? Not so much

5 mill I would take him and I hate bringing back old players. I'd take Ryan Miller also.
