“We'll find out tonight if Dmitri Simashev is available for the Sabres. They're one of 25 teams that met with him in Nashville.
Kevyn Adams repeated yesterday that it's important to draft and develop defensemen because they're difficult to acquire. Here's what he said last week:”
Has any other GM in recent memory just continue to dole out excuse after excuse like this guy?
It’s difficult for you Kevyn. It’s not difficult for most of the league to make a deal - sbroads24
Again, you're confusing this with Tim Murray saying that he didn't make a trade because nobody would play ball with him. I must have missed it - which D was traded already that we should have been in on? Aren't they all still out there?

That's a tough sentence to read, since he doesn't do either.

Not my job to call other GM’s and figure out who’s available, that’s Adams.

Go get Logan Thompson and Kaeden Korczak - Buff36
I know Ek likes to pretend the day after to bring new guys to the rumor board but Weekes said yesterday how teams were calling Vegas wondering what they were doing with Thompson.

But we get it, he’s trying and his job is hard - sbroads24
You can't be that thick. This is the negotiation phase of the process. You know how you circumvent that? You go full TMGM and bargain at a position of weakness.
Again, which D has moved already that you would have been in on? Why does the move need to be RIGHT NOW instead of tomorrow, next week or next month? This straw man garbage is so tiring. "If Adams doesn't get a D"

That would be an awesome acquisition. - TheSabresTaco
Yeah, I posted this because of Weekes. Was over on LeBrun's page and just clicked over and saw it.
1. ASP
2. Simashev
3. Benson
4. Barlow
5. Musty
6. Moore - TheSabresTaco
Fwiw, Moore basically had the exact same even strength production that Will Smith had. They used him in a more two way role than they gave Smith (and moore had weaker teammates he had to carry).

I know you're a sad boy today but there's a difference between "acquiring defensemen" and "acquiring good defensemen" that you want to keep for a long time.

Mock trade:
Sabres trade Mittelstadt and UPL for Hellebuyck extended 1 year at $8.5 (completed July 1)
Hellebuyck wants to wait one year to sign a longer deal for the cap to go up - Hank Balling
Wow, that is.... tempting. I think I would have to do it as it is it checks both short-and-long-term boxes. I have a feeling that Winnipeg would want more than that.

Yes, yes we know if you make trades you’re automatically Tim Murray.

I'm not jumping into this pool. The projected ceiling of Smith is at least an entire tier ahead of Moore.
