Did you get that interview? Or, the job offer so you can make all these trades happen as easily as you state...........How in the world can anyone on this board make that assessment?

Nice snippy remark.
Is 41, 45 or 14 your age.
But anyway, welcome!

Next time give us your thoughts, rather than attack as your first salvo.

Welp, trades are usually made at those times. FACT? FACT!
I didn't jump off the bridge on Dece 15th, cause trades don't happen then.
I'm raising concern that the peak trade season is in the rear view mirror, because...history tells us so.
Could there be a trade between now and October...ABSOLUTELY...and it better because walking into the season without filling a couple of spots is another disastrous result starting him in the face.
Teams who reportedly wanted RhD's were Tampa, Toronto, Vancouver and Winnepeg..and to some degree Edmonton and maybe Anaheim.
The fact is those teams did make moves which reduces their need...some will dropout altogether.

The risk of them not turning Risto into much needed scoring is increasing. Does he needed to trade for the sake of a trade like with ROR? Good lord I hope he doesn't ...and then Connor Sheary might be your 1st RW and Reino might be in the middle, leaving the 2nd and 3rd RW to those allstars Tage and Nylander.

That is my point.
What is yours?

Gotcha
I like him too

Let’s say we get him for Risto
Then we swing Gusev outta Vegas for a pick/prospect

Top9 ends up looking a lot better

I think reaves is still a real possibility.

August 12, 2018. Today is July 2, 2019. Ergo, we have 40 days before anyone is legally allowed to talk about roster projections or bridge jumping.

Although, having taken the plunge myself, it's liberating, if illegal

Yeah, vesey has played in so many big playoff games.
Tons of veteran leadership out of vesey

It's almost the same.

- Boss34

That soft "Leadership" drove them all the way to
-31st (prize for being the 1st team to do that!
-27th

They can and must do better.

No idea what he is or isn't going to do. I've lowered my expectations. Just sign Erod to a 3 year deal so I can get a royal blue Rodrigues jersey

I wish we had even a Risto rumour...right now I've just got no idea what he is worth to other GM's.

Apparently the leafs had two other offers for Kadri but both teams were on his ten team no trade list. With how awful buffalo has been you gotta figure they are on most players 10 team lists.

Boy, Kadri for Risto would have been amazing even in my imaginary world...

Under no circumstances should we ever be trading any player to Toronto unless it's Sobotka or Scandella.

Flagged you by accident

I'm gonna watch the games either way. Still like the team. I'm just being realistic about where we stand as of today. If Botterill pulls a couple moves out of his hat, sweet.

If nothing happens tomorrow, history suggests it will likely be a random day in late July or August, which will make for a long and dumb summer of Sabres prognostication
