as they should

he is worth more on a trade then borgen
- homiedclown

I would be shocked if Risto brought in that much

I was thinking a 4th maybe a 3rd round pick.

there is nothing that says Seattle doesn't take miller over borgen as it sits.. just depends on what other D are available.. they need to ice a decent team and Miller is an actual NHL defensemen today

They also need to get to the cap Floor. I can see them taking Miller because he is a one year deal at no terrible cap hit.

Definitely possible, and the ideal scenario for us

Why would they trade Borgen?

Seattle can then retain 50% and get a decent pick for him at the deadline as a rental for a team on a playoff run

asset management

right now risto is worth more in a move then letting him walk and keep borgen

NRD is on one right now.

"I've heard the order of trades risto, sam (if it happens) jack"

i find the bolded very interesting

I couldn't care less what they play before games (save some extreme exceptions), but anyone that thinks this is anything other than grandstanding is kidding themselves. This is the NFL's way of looking like they're doing something without doing anything at all.

from what i've red, there was a time when the anthem was played while teams were in the locker room/clubhouse...they need to go back to that

I think Borgen is more valuable to the franchise than whatever they end up getting for Risto.

Borgen with Dahlin looked nice

I think Reinhart has the the most ambiguity of the 3 when it comes to trade value.

Make sure the fax machine is plugged in.

At the end of the day, we don’t have 1 NHL goalie! There is zero reason not throw a 4th or 3rd at a team, even for a backup goalie at this point…
- Gr8daygo

Agreed, other than UPL. People massively underrate him IMO. I'd be more than happy with him as our backup next year, learning from a competent starter which he will replace gradually over 2-3 seasons.

Young as in waiver exempt? Or young as in Borgen type

Do they need to play it at all? Honest question.

sekera-weber nice

or gragmani-myers nice?

Hope springs eternal here. He truly likes it here and the pouty face at locker cleanout was for that cheddddah baby!

Definitely on to something with the Mike Weber

I think Reinhart has the the highest trade value of the 3.

It's close for sure

Not sure sir.

- Pegullaville

Hopefully his hockey IQ is higher. Then again, you just need to get above "Rock" to be there.

Falls in line with what 89 has been saying as well.

Borgen is mostly likely a number 5 d-man.

It’s not the end of the world if Seattle takes him but I mean if they take Miller that would be preferred.

Either can be replaced.

Not very high on Borgen, eh?

It's close for sure


- RhinoFan

I appreciate the humor, but his contract status is what makes it tough. Each team that makes an offer for him has to guess whether he wants to be there long-term or not.

the list of d prospects over the last 20 years of potential vs reality is depressing

I can't recall a decent pairing from the sabres since rhett and jason

No one should freak out over losing Borgen. That being said, with the direction the team is going, have to think they try to move Risto and keep him. Force Seattle into taking Miller and be done with it.

And get a (frank)ing goalie to protect already!
