LOL me too.

OK that's better but I want more
- jcragcrumple

Yeah it wouldn’t be my favorite deal at all.

But Zary is a good get as a prospect

Yeah I tried to include him in a Sam deal but switched it to a 1-for-1 instead.

In one of these deals I want Höglander or Zary

Have 2 wingers both at 9 million dollars with no number 1 or 2 center

And 1 of the winger has question marks with Maturity and teamplayer

Big question about the maturity and team player-

which winger lacks -skimmer or tkachuk ?

C. Both

1.) Sam for TK

2.) Eichel for Zegras, Drysdale, 1st

3.) Risto for Copp

4.) Draft Beniers and Wallstedt (to piss everyone off)

5.) Free beer on pierogi night

6.) Profit

Yeah I didn’t understand it tbh. I’m genuinely asking
- sbroads24

when fan expectations aren't met, buffalo fans jump over each other to try and be first to say, "get him the f*ck out" using analytics and salary as their basis without regard for anything else--teammates, coaching, strength of rivals, injuries, etc.

its also some sports psychology thing where fans always blame the good players

like of course i'm not going to blame seth griffith or jordan nolan or benoit pouliot for the sabres being bad because those guys aren't supposed to be good

but the guy who's supposed to be good who can't carry his bad team, thats the guy we have to single out

and the more they make, the more fickle the fan base can be

But why do we want tk ? If he wouldn't be a teamplayer in Calgary why would here ?

Skimmer is the superhero in the scenario?

I'd much rather have brady than Matt tkachuk.

If we're talking eichel....

Brady

Eichel

This is really a long roundabout way of blaming analytics?

O’Reilly’s “analytics” here we’re still solid. It was actually everything else IMO.

PLD= Tkachuk

Zary >>>> Copp

Plus 1st.

What am I missing from your end?
- sbroads24

Tkachuk isn't a Center and PLD isn't about to get $9M on his next deal.

Also, Zary is greater then Copp, for sure?

Solid, but not what they've been with St. Louis, as you said earlier.

1.) Sam for TK

2.) Eichel for Zegras, Drysdale, 1st

3.) Risto for Copp

The bold was possible 2 years ago and maybe last year, but not anymore.

- kingcong39

PLD also wasn’t very good this year. And chances are he gets overpaid IMO. Especially if we’re signing him to be our 1C

And while I like Copp, he’s not as skilled as Zary. By a lot.

Copp is a good middle six guy. Zary could be an All Star

Edit - also age difference alone Zary>> Copp for a rebuild

Just read a proposal reported on Spoertnet up here in Canada.

Eichel to the Flames for Tkachuk , Zarybamd the 2021 1st round pick.

I think that’s a pretty sweet deal for both teams.
- HonkyTonkMan

Buzzer sound.

Try again.

appleton and their late 1st?

throw in fitzgerald if needed
- homiedclown

Fitzgerald has no value
Career minor leaguer

Just looked up Zary's production. I now agree.

How the hell did he last to the 24th overall pick?

Hope people don't lose there minds if Eichel is dealt, this place will be hell.

Not sure why it has to be said over and over and over

Ristolainen sucks, and he also is a player GM’s and coaches think they can fix = he should still have some trade value

It’s not rocket science
- sbroads24

He doesn’t “suck”
He’s better than a “#5”
You’re ridiculously over exaggeration about him....
AGAIN

Yes, but I think that his effort and overall morale is the cause of that, not the analytics themselves.

Here we go

- jdfitz77

It’s funny how two other people said he’s a #5 on that page and you singled out my post lol.

He’s a 5.

- Buff36

He should already be dealt in everyone's minds.

Save 'em the sorrow.
