He will absolutely not.

Foligno is a third line role player at this point in his career.

Let's wager. You have no idea what wins in the nhl playoffs. You self admittedly didnt watch the playoffs last season.

Other players having down years. Get decent return.

Hall having down year. That’s just what the market called for.

Sure let’s continue to give this team the benefit of the doubt.

Did you ever think maybe the return was so bad because the Sabres have no front office and a GM in over his head.

Hall will get a higher AAV than Foligno.

yet evander and foligno fetched more in deadline deals
- homiedclown


GMs want leadership/role players that excel in defensive roles at the deadline. Those are the players that are worth the most. A 30 goal guy would be worth a lot too, if he scored more than 2 goals.

Bet foligno gets paid more as a ufa with a better length than hall this offseason. Both unrestricted.

Foligno is a playoff type guy, yep:
Tough, gritty. Punchy if necessary. 7 goals this season

Hall is a loser, who has been terrible this season. 2 goals this season.

- Boss34



Absolutely not.

Hall won’t be getting $8 million but Foligno is a 3-4 million dollar 3rd liner AT MOST

Plus Foligno is older and his body is wearing down.

6 for 6 for Hall

2 for 3 for Foligno

Keep building draft capital, and maybe get lucky in the offseason when teams need cap space.
- Buff36


Use it on RFAs. Get a contract in place and give the Kings a 2nd for Iafallo.

so every GM in the league conspired to not make their team better at the deadline by adding hall so they could work in unison to fleece kevyn adams?

"hey pittsburgh, here's the offer on the table for hall"

pittsburgh elects not to have a better offer because adams is a rookie?

You think Hall is going to use this season to get a 6x6 in a league that has no rising cap for two more years? I'd take Foligno on that contract, provided Eakin is punted into the sun.

We complain about having picks, we complain about not having picks, we like drafting well but hate that we don't have any real prospects.

How the (frank) does anyone survive this team.

The disappointment directly correlates with what fans think a player is worth in a vacuum.

This entire board complains about every topic mentioned in the post. Point is, no one is ever happy. And the fact that we have picks or not shouldn't be the reason we despise the Buffalo Sabres.

Bjork was on a competent Boston team, he was given scoring line minutes and failed. His underlying numbers are god awful.

He’s aBout to be 25. He’s a 4th line guy.

- ImThatGuy


He got 3rd line minutes at best - how is that a scoring line?


Kuraly/Wagner and Coyle with a range of 3-4 different wingers are his most frequent 5v5 partners.

Games 3 and 4 are the only games this season he seems to have been with scorers, where he played with Smith and Coyle
