Well that’s one way to add another top end forward.

Botts could have his sights set on Drysdale.

I think 90% of Hockeybuzz plays too much GM mode on NHL '19.

On "easy" mode.

It takes 15 months to make a trade.

Trades Scandella for a 4th
Trade a 4th for Frolik.

That took months of work for this GM.

Remember when ruffs was not afraid to held players responsible..??? Yeah those were great times...now we have lalaland coach who always try to find something positive to say even tho they freaking suck! How many times did we make the playoffs since he left? Heck how many times did we win a playoff series since he left? We keep bringing soft coach after soft coach after soft coach. I guess its bound to change

Botts should be starting to sell pronto and getting whatever he can for all of our impending UFA’s even if it’s a bunch of late round picks.

- Pegullaville

This would seem to be the move, but JB has thus far proved to be either uninterested or unable to trade impending free agents. I guess I’m just not expecting it.

Oh that’s right because he was so damn important to this team that they decided to take him to arbitration.

Regardless you have 3 disgruntled players currently playing or sitting that we know of. A team that is pure garbage with a superstar that has zero help.

Real good job Botterill.

But at least he is not Tim Murray, so he has that going for him.

Don't remember anyone anywhere saying they shouldn't qualify ERod.

☝️

I definitely said they should release erod after the arbitration award.

Not sure what that means....you would have waived him and hope someone else claims him?

One is a decent depth d-man, the other 2 nobody want and we’ve been trying to move for months.

That makes more sense. Wasn't an option. The award was too high to buy out.

If money is no object.
Retain 35-50%.

Take a 4th - 6th rd pick just to get them out of here.

Seems fairly simple.

Sabres are mathematically in it, so they’re still “in the hunt”. But...they’ll be bottoming out soon enough and their spirit will break and then the quitting will start up in earnest.

Even if you retain 50%, there's only a few teams with space. There's nothing simple about moving money out during the season.

time for a bold move then... Fire Botterill and Ralphy right now and right the ship a bit so the offseason can actually be productive. Otherwise this team will wallow on for another decade..

Yes and please bring Darcey and Ruff back

😂😂😂Everyone needs to C-H-I-L-L-A-X. Sabres are actually really good. Just been playing really really good teams. They’re 3-7 in their last 10. They’re allowed a stinker every now and then u know!!!! Not seeing the generationalness in Dahlin is laughable!!! 😂😂😂
