I feel Sobotka should be sent down to the minors but apparently we are already at the vet limit down there. Botts is nowhere near done with this roster. - Swedish_Jesus
“Nowhere near done”? What does that mean to you?
To me, it would mean at least three new players before the start of the season.
Cap dump? So in this hypothetical trade is BUF giving up anything useful? - Feds91Stammer
NOPE
I can't think of anything useful for them to give away though. Buf probably isn't moving picks or prospects, and they need to move a little bit of salary. What would you even want from this team? Maybe McCabe? I don't know if I would do that if I were Buffalo. McCabe and Risto for Mantha? no thanks.
Eichel, Skinner, Olafsson - Mojo is wasted here, let him be a good second liner instead of a below average first liner. Olafsson can do this.
Mojo, Mitts, Reinhart - Good line if Mitts gets 20
Vesey, Erod, Sheary - decent third line
Okposo, Larsson, CJ Smith/Curtis Lazar/Ruotsoleinen - Dear god I can't watch Girgs and Sobotka anymore.
It means hopefully Hunwick is truly hurt and goes on IR or is shipped somewhere for anything. Same can be said for Sobotka and Scandella. - Swedish_Jesus
you can't get anything more than future considerations for Hunwick and sobotka gets you a 6th or somethign.. Scandella maybe a 3rd or 4th.. you are not getting any players that aren't equally as bad back in a trade for these guys

I like it. Especially those top two lines.
Okposo is better than CJ Smith and Sheary. He's going to be on this team.

No we don’t get anyone of importance back, but we are then under the cap and have roster flexibility.

I'd be shocked if any team would take him at all. By some metrics he was the worst forward in the NHL last year... at $3.5m

Against the strongest desires of every fiber in my being, I have to admit that this guy may be the greatest NFL quarterback of all time. And, I come from an era where being an NFL quarterback - ANYNFL quarterback - is a thing that is VERY VERY MANLY.
Logically, this compels my brain to believe that the guy who is arguably the greatest NFL quarterback of all time might also be the MANLIEST of men.
