How about boeser ( van )
And what would be cost ?

I'd imagine close to 7 million a year

I think there is a fair chance that he ends up here. The reports were that we were in discussions with them at the deadline and Adams said he would be picking up the conversations in the summer. Boeser and/or Myers must have been in the conversation.

I believe his qualifying offer as an ARB eligible player is $7.5M, so you're close.

Are you comfortable paying him that, or more, potentially long term?

He has 2 years left before becoming a UFA.

I'd look elsewhere personally.

Yes, there are a long list of players who couldn't produce points at the lower levels that turned into points producers in the NHL.

I hope not, as he would cost assets and money.

That's the old Sabres way.

If you want to look at Fla, the gap isn't just about depth of scoring. Their top line is miles ahead of ours. That's always going to be a concern.

I don't care where the goals are coming from as long as they're coming.

I just used the panthers cause they score a lot. I dont expect this team to put up those numbers. That being said we could very well have a top line of all 30 goal scorers like Florida. Skin-Tage-Tuch/Olof

No thanks he regressed this year. Something seems off with him. IDK if its effort or what

So 33 if signed for 7 years

Building the team around 2 LD's is a fascinating experiment. I might be the only one, but I wish Eichel and Reinhart were still here. Sorry Boss.

Jack is a helluva hockey player, but he didn't fit in, especially in the locker room where he was the "leader"

Sam on this team with the new energy would be interesting but they gone.

Have we seen enough of dhalen on the right side to be comfortable going into next year there ?

You forgot skinny boy Krebs.
- lacaprup

Awww yes…….onviously he’s only had 7-8 good periods of hockey

Why do "playing like they love the game" and "being really, really good at the game" have to be mutually exclusive?
- buffalofan19

They dont have to be. Eichel….really good at the game. Reinfart…..good at the game. Ror….good at the game. Kane……good at the game. Those were great days!!!

Not your comments necessarily but sometimes it feels like people want to go back to those days after reading some of these comments

Rhino yes, Eichel... Hell no, he is a club killer, I bet he gets traded again within 3 years..

So you're ok with a 7 or 8 year deal at $8M per for Boeser, and having to trade assets to get him?

I wouldn't say were building around anyone. We are building a team here.

He can anywhere in the lineup.

I'm always going to view the root of their problem as a dysfunctional front office, not Jack or the coaches. Winning some games would have changed everything.

put some pads on him and see if he can stop the puck

- kingcong39

Not necessarily

But trying to at least get a discussion going

People were complaining about the board yesterday

Ideals should at least keep discussion going forward

Assets
Rather not give up anything as of now

Ufa
Ur paying that for older players

Is Fiala a potential target due to Minnesota's cap situation or will they do anything possible to keep him?

How much would the Wild want in a trade, and what kind of contract would Fiala be looking for?

I wouldn't say were building around anyone. We are building a team here.
- DirtyDan

Two years from now, they may be handing them both $10m deals. They are the most talented players on this team by a wide margin.

they make these things to help with that

Can't win games if you don't jell as a team though

You can have all the talent in the world and if you can't put it together then it doesn't mean anything
