The cap is finally rising again, and the estimations have always gone by percent of the cap limit.

What tweak are they supposed to do?

How do you know it's not working, when players have not been signed yet?

Adams is knocking down the cap % by .001 per conversation....might make some headway by end of August.

what would a 5 year deal for Jack Roslovic look like?



nice 2 way player

he is no rempe but......

I like my idea of packaging Skinner with Joker to move Skinner to Toronto for Tavares... Using a 3rd Party to retain Cap.
Send a prospect or pick to that 3rd Party.
Then hopefully they can resign him for another couple years at vastly reduced Cap hit.

Toronto is likely the only team Skinner would waive for Tavares would need to waive his as well.. so given Adams' piss poor ability to close these deals .. it would never happen

Your idea, huh? Crazy how your and Pegs’ ideas are always somehow posted after I say it first.

If he's the Sabres top trade Target Adams should be handed his pink slip.

Skinner for Tavares is certainly not a new idea.
U will probably notice it was posted many times over the past few months.
Calling out Ion for potential idea theft is a very super serious matter
Knowing what I know about their hometowns,
I think it would be a pretty good idea.
Toronto gets a 3 year winger to replace Mitch on half the celery
Buffalo gets a 1 year inflated middle 6 center.
Definitely worth a discussion regardless of the origination.

We ought to have a daily reminder that playing with speed is not the same thing as being fast so sabretoothless can quit his poor troll job

Barkov reinhart tkachuk Bennett ekblad none of them are burners

Florida doesn't play with speed and skill they grind you to a pulp and have a handful of high end players with skill who are relentless and score around the net

Buff36 and washedup want milian lucic. That type of hockey hasn’t been relevant for 10 years now

There's a lot of (frank)ing relevancy in prime Milan Lucic hockey.

"Earlier this week, The Hockey News Buffalo Sabres' Michael Augello"

Love that he writes about Buffalo but is a massive laffs fan.

weak defensively. can't win faceoffs. why bother
- TheSabresTaco

since going to the rangers, he is producing at about a 47 point season pace counting the regular season and playoffs

probably come in on the cheap for his next contract


our savior cozens also put up 47 points last season

he consistently puts up middle 6 numbers 5 on 5 and has decent speed and can play pk if needed

if kicking skinner out, you need a more skilled winger than greenway in your middle 6 IMO

please dont do this to you

Max Domi took 452 faceoffs this year and won exactly half (226).

Also I would sign him

You are not very bright

Or good at trolling

why, production only matters on certain players?

Then I get told by both of them I’m an idiot.

if kevyn wants an abrasive, aggressive, defensively responsible bottom 6, roslovic is a square peg in a very round hole.

we both know that everything isn't just what the box score says.

The tweak that makes the most sense is top line (or second line) younger players take like 75/80% of the increase, not a flat bump across the board imo.
* Idk how they implemented the increase, and they seem to do a pretty decent job and appreciate the drops from ya Cong. Just my thoughts on how it could/should play out.
