That's what I mean. People here think the Sabres can get a top 6 forward for garbage players. They must give some quality to get quality..

If only there was a way to, instead of making a draft pick, allow another team to make the pick in exchange for another player.

I’d consider re-signing him
Has shown he can score a bit in the past

At the very least,
he’s a pain in the a$$ to play against
and can “protect” our good players

If he doesn’t work out, we let him walk
No big deal

- jdfitz77


Hes here for 40 games and then he is gone.
The Sabres have no business resigning him. I’d rather a 10 point young kid over a 32 year old who’s going to fade extremely quickly.

Also what do you mean by protect our good players. If you mean fight or stick up for guys, Frolik is not that player, at all

Scandella is S

Frolik is F

the pick is 4

S = 4

F = 4

4 > Frolik = Scandella

It basically comes down to Frolik and Scandella being equal to the 4th round pick, since the same 4th round pick was traded for both players, however, we freed up cap space by trading Scandella and lost the most valuable part of the trade: the acquired 4th rounder, in this case, greater than the sum of it's parts.

Botterill is a literal brain-damaged moron.

If you trade Scandella for a 4th rounder and free up 4.5 millions dollars only to trade that 4th for a player with a 3 million dollar cap hit...

You traded a 4th round pick for 1.5 million dollars.

Should have just called Mittelstadt back up.

This guy is a (frank)ing jamoke.

Could be a better player . 4th rounders are pretty much useless

How did we lose 2 ? is this core math ?
Sorry confused

- cabin


Advanced calculus

We traded one asset (scandella) for another asset (Frolic). The 4th rd pick wasn’t ours to begin with, so nothing lost

Your math contradicted itself.

If S=4 and F=4 4= f or S

Which means F=S=4

Yeah I thought in the 1st period he said he was leaving and letting us enjoy the poopty Sabres by ourselves. Around the time he was ranting about menstruation and people saying are instead of our?? Guess we were “blessed” be stuck around for the whole game.

Ah yes, but logic comes into play here as well, which dictates a 4th rounder is more valuable than either Scandella or Frolik, two ageing players with nothing to offer this team.

Keeping the 4th opens a spot back up for Mittelstadt, who is basically as useful as Frolik but with way more upside.

The 4th and Mittelstadt with 4.5 million opened up in cap space is far more valuable than Frolik or Scandella.
