And trading a million picks and players

Does Mark Stone facilitate a sign and trade to Vegas though if they weren’t already a bonafide Stanley Cup contender though ?

Makes it a lot easier to trade an Alex Tuch +++ for Eichel though when you know you’re a piece away too.

Things to consider.

Hill will never live up to the contract he is going to get after this.

95% of NHL goalies don’t live up to the contracts they get for the most part.

Holy (frank) dude. How the (frank) do you think they got to be a piece away? Spent big money in UFA and traded a ton of players and picks and said "(frank) the draft".

How do the Sabres get to be one piece away?

That’s what I want to know.

Bro they went to the cup final 10 minutes after they got their team name.

They were in a position to say “(frank) the draft”.

Most teams have to draft and develop a cup contending core.

They were handed one.

How much time? 95% of the time, most of the time kind of time?

Another decade of building through the draft! Patience. Top5

57 D makes over 5m next year. 12 G.

Rasmus Ristolainen makes more than the average goalie. Kind of crazy.

I’m thinking more binnington

Also isn’t Buffalo in prime position to say “(frank) the draft.”

2 Franchise d-men
1-2 c locked up long term
Top 9 pretty much set and young
Bevy of forward prospects.
Potential long term starting G.
Oodles of cap space.

On the fence:

Kuemper- $5.2M (we’ll see how this ages)
Demko- $5M (what Demko am I getting ?)

The team that is about to win the cup got a bender from Adin Hill after their top 3 options (Lehner, Thompson, Quick) couldn’t go or got outplayed.

Too many men.

Bobrovsky just had an outstanding playoffs.

Unsure of point.

The plan should be to hope UPL turns into Hill I think?

It’s bold and it may not work…


Edit - actually it would be Levi/UPL/Comrie all blow and Jordan Subban turns into Hill.

Goaltending is as reliable as the roulette table at the Bellagio.

Even Hellebuyck got outplayed by his former backup in the first round of the playoffs.

It’s a total crapshoot.

Comrie sure as hell didn’t work out, but imagine being stuck with one of the contracts above ?
