Sorry, 3 years. It's brutal. If they manage to win a cup while playing from a disadvantage that severe, then good on em, but I still say Guerin totally botched the Suter buyout.

He may have totally wasted the Kaprizov era

- Hank Balling

Question: would you trade Quinn, Krebs and the Vegas 1st for Kaprizov?

Nichushkin is better than Crouse in almost every way, plus he would cost nothing more than money as he's a UFA.

He'd be a great fit for the top 9. A Tuch clone, but better defensively.

No, because I already traded them, Dylan Cozens and RJ's banner for Patrick Kane.

No. Keep the cheap young players who are already 2-3 years in development

I’d move the three firsts for him though

For next game silly. He's due for a 3 point night, getting jealous of Rooster.

Where do YOU make the room for a Nichushkin or a Trocheck if they are able to sign one or both?

I'm OK moving Mittelstadt for an RHD prospect and/or pick that turns into an RHD prospect.

Think that goalie situation could be huge. Do they stay status quo or do they go out and get a DK or Campbell type. Could have a big influence on what happens with Fiala.

Yeah, very much so. Could see hoping for a boost, but weird. That's what you got him for.

Ignoring the history of both teams, simply looking at the results of this season and the projection into the future, would you rather become a Sabres fan or Penguins fan?

We can't have a real discussion about the merits of a player if you're only going to use points, but even just using points, you know the last 2 seasons before this one were Covid shortened, right?

Not trading mitts..

definitely similar but unlike Spilly Vanilly, Cook isn't afraid of going between the tackles.

it's funny that Spills was drafted 9th and Cook was 63rd.
