They will trade Pacioretty, it's been mentioned before.

Patches has been a key player for Vegas. He also has a modified no trade.
How the hell is the team better dumping Tuch, Patches, Krebs and picks just to add Eichel? Makes no sense.

Great list but he forgot UPL, Levi and Portillo. At least 1 of those 3 goalies should pan out.

Also the 2 Ruskies seem promising.

Another trade?! Sabres announce they’ve acquired Johnny Boychuk for future considerations.

Boychuk is done playing hockey so this is strictly a cap move.

Chad 😂

UPL needs to wake up though hes been pathetic
- Sabretooth9

yeah.. frustrating to be certain. Can't imagine how he's feeling. Or what he's feeling. His level of play has plummeted this year and I wonder if there's anything behind it.

what the (frank) is this. Let's see. 1.25M owed for entire season, so Sabres need to pay him about 1.11M.

Future considerations, (frank) you.

- TheSabresTaco

use boychuks cap hit to stay above cap floor.

The one thing that fascinates me is Eichel will be the last person to be activated of of IR this year.

Assuming everyone else is healthy at that point.

Vegas has to clear at least 10.5 Mil to activate Eichel.
- ImThatGuy

Not if they activate him only for the playoffs

Gets us to the floor, per Friedman

Future is bright boys, a nice flow of prospects will start coming through Rochester. Hopefully the Pegula's don't push Adams, he's building a good foundation and just needs to keep progressing that way. Don't Rush Him.

No I get it.

Future considerations is (frank)ing lame.

I'm about to go full Clown and female dog about not getting a pick.

They had to. Like I’ve been saying. To get Mitts on the active roster they would have to send someone down. They would be below the cap floor

I don't get why there wasn't a solid pick. Why would we want to help them out?

No I get it.

agreed.

Get like a 7th or soemthign to go with it.

At least something.

This is what we were talking about earlier. And I get it. But for (frank)ing free. That's poop.

Whatever.

The Sabres were also in a rough spot. It was each other helping out.

- SabreWest

Those are just the 1st rnd picks under 22, he didn't include everyone. That's why Me Likey, cause there's a lot more than that list.

We could have picked up a scrub anywhere

You're telling me you can't grab yourself a lottery ticket to snag that 6M off of someone's LTIR? Blow it out your ass, Kevo.

Weissbach, Olofsson, Rousek. Dandy fliers.

There's this thing called "roster limit".

6mil seems hefty without a noticeable return.

Really does it matter, it's been a good day. Leave a nice Fruit Bread on Adams driveway.

sure but that 6 million gives buffalo a lot of flexibility right now and for future trades.

This is what we were talking about earlier. And I get it. But for (frank)ing free. That's poop.

- TheSabresTaco

They should have done this in the off-season before LTIR is a thing. Would have gotten a 4th or something. They knew they were trading Eichel. Ugh.

Yes, asset management 101. something teh SAbres have been terrible at.
