Is Scandella still playing? We got that 3rd from Portillo we can go get him.

Adams = Botterill.

That was good asset management. But I know that doesn't fit the narrative.

I was clearly cheering the move. It really doesn't get much more efficient or impressive than that. Nothing I could think of to happen in the last hour could impress me more.

Please tell me you have a problem with the Eichel trade. šŸ˜‚

You'd give up Savoie, Samuelsson and a first?

Savoie Sam and a first was a garbage made up rumor by a so-called ā€œinsiderā€ on this site. Donā€™t believe everything that is made up.

Adams is trash.

1st and 2 2nds for Chychrun.

We could have easily paid that.

Picks?

Only one is for the 2023 draft.

The other two picks are in 2024 and 2026 (FFS).

Was Bobby Orr traded today? Was the deadline at 6 today? Holy s, can we save the complaints until after the deadline? We have no idea what might happen.
- Slump Buster

May have been what Armstrong was trying to get months ago when Chychrun returned to playing, but clearly the price dropped, big time.

Tuch being in the conversation brings up an important, relevant topic, which is his contract situation and the desire for management and some Sabres fans to continue slow playing things.

https://www.capfriendly.com/players/alex-tuch

He's going to turn 27 this May, he'll have 3 seasons left on his deal, and he'll be 30 when he needs his next deal.

With the amount of value they're getting from him in terms of on ice performance compared to his bargain cap hit, slow playing things means you're not taking full advantage of that. Ditto Tage in that regard.

Every season that making the playoffs and winning is not the ultimate priority wastes the tremendous value the Sabres are getting out of Tuch and Tage.

At least for Tuch, the clock is already ticking on his current deal.

I kow logic isn't your thing so I'll help you out. He reported an an alleged asking price. Same for Meier. Just because returns weren't great doesn't mean the ask wasn't originally sky high.

Arizona can ask for whatever they want, I am sure the did set the ask high in the beginning but it came down a lot and Adams should have been willing to pay a 1st and 2 2nds.
