Would you take on Mikheyev and Toronto's 1st for Clifton ?
I think I would, with them taking Clifton back you only adding a mill or 2 to your Cap. And the kid does have some Talent. Plus the 23rd pick in the 1st.

I think Johnson is a different conversation. He's 23 and D. I think he starts in Roch and that doesn't really bother me with how injury prone this D group is.

Would be nice if a F forced the issue in camp, but it really feels like KA doesn't have the luxury of having a Jost/Vinny/Bjork around that he's willing to sit/waive.

I want to watch Sabŕes playoff hockey, as I know everyone on this board does.

I would love to see Adams make two trades, for a bonafide 2C and a 1RW ... to push Cozens and Quinn down to L3, while Peterka replaces Skinner at 1LW. Benson replaces JJP at LW on L3 w Cozens and Quinn. Skinner the new 2C and Tuch form L2.

That leaves L4 to be upgraded. Keifer Sherwod at 4LW and Amdio or your boy Faska at 4C would be terrific.

I'm confused. Is this part of a 3way trade?
Mikheyev in on Vancouver, and Toronto has its own 1st rounder, right?

To answer the question though, no, not at that contract and production.

That sounds like 10 years of moves, in KA years.

I can't imagine Cozens not being 2C next year.

Logan wasn't Healthy last Year, only played 8 games or something. Might not play this year, or atleast to start the Year

I'd send a message to him specifically...play like poop, lose "your" position...work hard over the next two years to get it back.
At $7m, the message should not need sending, but here we are.

Just don't think the league works that way. Adding a 2C is difficult and expensive. Any threat to his job likely comes internally.

I think he'll bounce back. Still more worried about the first line than second.

Disagree.
The only lever these management teams have is playing time.

Yes and people are running to the ticket booths supposedly. They have enough prospects that they don't have to slow play anymore. They can trade a few and survive
- Buff36


I wonder how true that is. They called my buddy three times trying to get him to buy tickets, offering him pretty decent discounts on various packages. I don't think you do that if ticket sales are going well, but I could be wrong.

If the Sabres thought they could extend Casey at $5M per for a middle length term, would they have traded him?

I know my answer to that.

Curious what others think.

There was a suprising number of people buying season tickets ? Why would I make that up?

Of course they are calling everyone that had seats, what idiots think the Sabres would be content until it was sold out?

Why ? You can't use 23 to go get another player in a trade. Or gives you the opportunity to use 11 in a trade and still have a 1st rnd pick

You got mad at Adams signing Okposo Jost stick Johnson

Then want him to make this move for a 1st.

I’m confused on your strategy

What's confusing about it ? He's signed for 2 years, and with sending Clifton back he is only costing me 1.5mill for those 2 seasons and I get a 1st to use on something else. And he could pot 15-20 goals for me or more depending if he gels.
