Gott fill out Roch somehow.

For next years second would be cool with me. I just dont like his contract and I don't like his injury history.

He screams 3rd pair to me. He can play 2nd line for some stints but I wouldn't want him there full time.

I'd rather pay more for Hauge tbh. Can still mold him a bit and he doesn't come with brain injuries.

Hague is also left handed and not currently a guy of partner with Power
I’m fine with Jokiharju as his partner,
but Murphy would also be a possibility there

Coulda beat their pick but not sure if we coulda beat Faber without giving them JJ or Quinn

How about 16 and Johnson

Sure, but I'd put pretty high odds on a Fiala extension coming soon. I think that always hurts the Sabres on these deals.

How so?

Is Johnson better than Faber?

16 beats 19

We could’ve made a competitive offer for sure

I’ve thrown out the idea of Mitts, pick28 & Johnson

It’s quite possible that Minny just really liked Faber though

I think they’re in the same ballpark

Huh?

Handness means very little. Its good for one timers and some situational passing, that's about it.

Johnson probably wouldn't sign in Mini

That's not true, a lot of Dman can't play there opposite side.

They will trade Johnson to LA for the rights to Fiala the day before Free Agency.

only 3 more replies to go and you'll have responded to every post in the comments section. You can do it!

Fiala has signed a extension

Some are better on one side than the other for different reasons but as far as playing ability goes being on your off-hand side only effects small parts of your game that can be easily adjusted to.

I did play all over the line up in my days as a player so maybe I just find it easier than others?

I don’t get the impression that GMKA is very interested in trading for a player like Fiala, then giving him a 7 year contract.

LA is 1-2 years ahead of us in a semi rebuild. We can make moves like that next year if our team shows progress this year

Not Kevyn, apparently.
He seems to be all about drafting and development. I’d be quite shocked if he pulled off a deal like this one.

Don’t pull a tim Murray. Although that wouldvt been a Tim Murray lite trade

When are people going to realize that Adams is not going to pay anyone 8-9 mill a year no matter how good Fiala was or is. The payroll will be around 62-65 mill.
