Gerbe's you said something about the whole bottom 3 D being different. Is there another D move coming or did they try and miss with someone.

So Vasilevsky, error Gibson has demanded a trade, eh? Time for The wussy to strike.

Anaheim has about $28.8m in Cap Space, and are under the Cap Floor by about $7m
It would behoove them to hold some Cap, say $2m.
That brings Gibson down to 4 x $4.4m.

For this season then, they would be somewhere around $11 - $12m under the floor...so, perhaps including Olofsson, Bryson & Joker's combined Cap hit of $9.1m helps to close the gap to a more manageable level...for one year of Cap hits.

Sabres would need to exchange value...I would hope the following break down would work:
-For Gibson - 2024-3rd & UPL
-for taking on Cap Hits (although I'd discount it 50% as they need the hit) IDK; Kisakov?

So,
Olofsson (dump), Bryson (dump), Joker (2nd /3rd round value), UPL, Kisakov, 2024-3rd
For
Gibson $2.0m retained

Sabres open up $4.7m Cap space and retain enough assets to then swing big for Pesce.

Keep in mind, they are under the floor with Zegras, Terry, and Drysdale each needing a new deal. (+Dostal). That's a lot of money.

You're going to make Sbroads drink himself to death if nothing else happens.

Thanks Bud appreciate it.

Take a Gibson Hellenson combo meal or a
Hellebuyck Demelo served just the way you like it.

Global warming has Buffalo under water by 2031…FanDuel odds are +750, I tossed $20 on it.

Actually this is not correct.

From what I can tell, all models show the coasts and the great plains underwater, while the Great Lakes cities above the Niagara escarpment should be okay

It should be a crime to recreate the Abbey Road photograph

So which contenders need a no.1 goalie?

Pens are out with Jarry re signing

Devils were rumored in on Hele and walked away. Is Gibson an upgrade over who they have?
- Gr8daygo

Leafs

I hear he’s looking for a Johnson to put in the crease too.
- SoCalPucks

It makes zero sense. If he already signed we’d know about it.
- ImThatGuy

They’ll probably wait til he’s in town to announce it.

They are already 7ish million over cap

I’m genuinely anticipating hearing the terms. Locking Dahlin up at a reasonable rate would have huge implications for the Sabres in the future. Contracts do seem to be one of KA’s aptitudes so far.

[quote=homiedclown]

Leafs are in cap jail and no team would be stupid enough to take Matt murray

Devils media guys said they want someone who can play 30 ish games.

That doesn’t sound like helleybuck or Gibson type goalie

Pens and Carolina resigned their guys


The Sabres are technically the only team really looking for a goalie.

The sharks …. But I can’t see them getting either goalie

Soooo Pesce and a goalie?
- Stripes77

That is what I was thinking too

I remember when the Lions passed on Aaron Donald because they had Suh and Nick Fairley to take Eric Ebron.

Good times.

For so many years we didn’t have enough forwards and now we’re complaining about trying to hit home runs on potential game changing forwards ?

What kills me, is everyone pretending dahlin, power and samuelsson aren't here for the next 7 to 10 years.

You need to stock pile the offense when you have a core like that. Especially when you factor many of the forwards will price themselves out of buffalo.

I'm thrilled for the benson pick. Can't believe we got him by standing pat. Kid is going to be such a pain in the ass to play against.

If the waiting and development and patience game persists much longer none of it will matter
