Even when Power is in, they need another D man.

I think they feel like they have that with Joker. I'm not one to agree, I still want him on the third line. But I don't think the team agrees.

They like Chychrun but they won't give up what the Bill Armstrong is asking and the Yotes know only so many teams can trade for him, not just because of the cap but due to picks and prospects.

Armstrong can play this one just like Adams with Eichel. And why shouldn't he.

I wonder if Terry is pushing for chicken too.

The vibe I got was, they want to add but don't want to mess up the chemistry. Didn't happen with Jost.

Not sure what you should get credit for? A fake trade with another poster? Thank you on behalf of my fellow hockeybuzz posters for your hard work. 😀

I'm tired of watching Mitts do nothing but that's just me, I can give or take Olofsson.

For an in season trade, perhaps. I just think he proved to the NHL he has no interest in under selling. Jake came out, what, last offseason and stated his discontent, and here we are.

He's got term and most teams will need to offload 2-4M to take him. Which is probably the easy part.

Most of the teams with cap room have lottery picks. And those are the picks he wants. Which is why we're probably here.

Can't even have fun with some of you people. Isn't Hockeybuzz or CapFriendly supposed to be places where you talk or try things that would help your team. What credit am I looking for, Jesus not like I can call Adams and do it.

Useless. Tage and Tuch lifted Mitt's rates out of the gutter in that 3 game stretch but he was being dragged along.

I promised myself to give that kid 20 games this year to show something, and he's done (frank)ing zilch.

And you broke up a line that was working, to try and get them going.

Easiest path is for Buffalo to offer a top 10, maybe top 5. This team has the foundation to be a playoff team either this or next year. Roll the (frank)ing dice.

Well, what do you know. When we stop giving up multiple cross-ice passes on front of the net every game like we were two weeks ago, the goaltending magically looks better. It was still a shooting gallery last night but at least they weren't shots that are 40% likely to score.

I don't know if I can watch 46 for the rest of the year. We get our heads caved in every time he is out there.

As always, thanks for the info. I am assuming that the main sticking point is an unprotected first next year? Any idea what else they would be looking for?

I'd like to see a Victor Olofsson for Bowen Byram trade but that's my opinion and probably won't happen.

They already asked for Savoie and that was a no.
