projections:

2 years at 1.8 or 3 years at 2.5

These projections from Evolving Wild have been very accurate.

Okay with that 2 year deal .... 3 year. Not so much.

Bedlam

-this board recognizes the slight (and necessary) overpayment for Skinner. We'd rather keep him for more than lose him for nothing
-Risto is the team's best trade chip to get better. In your scenario, if Risto is traded for Trouba, the Sabres win. Trouba is largely a better defenseman, and they are not the same.
-I try to move on every day. I keep a journal of how many days we have gone without moving on.
-The value Duchene will provide is much less than Skinner, and his contract will be extremely troublesome. However, 2C must be addressed.

Solid post

We make this trade then Turcotte goes #3!!
- turbo044

In the Mock Draft where this was offered, Byram went 3rd to Chicago already.

I would like to see Trouba in Buffalo before we say he is an improvement. You rid yourself of Risto, you need to replace his points and minutes. Trouba is the same points but I do not know much more about him.

In addition, I agree Risto is our best trade chip - we (the Board) HATE him but can only imagine a STUD (insert name and postion) return. Risto sucks but will result in a tremendous haul coming back. I still do not understand the thinking by many.

Then why would you offer-up such a strong opinion based on, sorry to say, ignorance ( in the true definition, not implying stupid)

I can’t believe people want jt Miller ( Drew Stafford ) at center

Spot on. I'd rather have Tyler Johnson, and I wouldn't want him either unless Tampa made it very worthwhile.

Lot of drew staffords today. Zucker is Drew Stafford, Miller is Drew Stafford. The OG is a UFA, we could just go that route

Yeah how’s that phone call go:

“Botts please take Tyler Johnson from us, he’s only producing tremendously in our top 6, can we sweeten the pot for you as well?”

when you wipe, make sure to go from front to back...never, ever back to front. And douche at least once per week.

Finesse the Penguins into moving Maatta for some of our dead weight and or picks.


He's not great, but he's better than mccabe and scandella. move the former in a package for fwd talent and the latter for literally anything.

I admitted I did not know much more about him other than he is the same points so..... How about this instead a stupid insult, please tell me why he is an upgrade. I admitted I do not know much about him.

Well done

A lot of words to say the player will produce the same.
- washedup20

I think he can up his points from 65 to around 75-80

You shout and pout stating that Sabres aren’t ready and still want to sign an aging player that brings minimal impact to a short term contract. Should be another good day of nonsense.
- washedup20

Huh?
I don’t want to sign Simmonds
I’ve been saying over & over it’s a bad idea and he’s clearly declining

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

If Chicago took Turcotte,
I’d still be thrilled with Byram
Actually...
i think I’d prefer Byram bc we got Compher who can be the 3C, Mitts at 2C

Then we’d have Dahlin & Byram in our top4
❤️❤️❤️
