Eklund: Wings/Sabres Talking Major Trade (e4) Update> 5 players involved..

No they’re not.

Truly huge deal if hugely true

Yeah.. No. (frank) that poop.

was garf the source for this roomer?

I'll call your bluff

It's Risto to Canucks for Tanev, Baertschi and Juolevi. Risto is then flipped to Tampa with Schaller for Sergachev and picks.

Buffalo is trading from a point of weakness. Canucks need to dump salary.
Tampa has committed long term to LD's Hedman and McDonaugh and LD Sergachev is an RFA next year. Tampa won't be able to afford his market value contract and Sergachev will want prime time elsewhere.

The Sabres are $1m over the cap, so the Canucks will have to do that elsewhere. And Baertschi would add to the LW log jam of Skinner, Vesey, Mojo, Olofsson and Sheary. So, no on many fronts

99.9% of Ek's rumours are bullcrap. This is just another one from one of his "sources".

I'm only interested if they call him Snipeshow around these parts and the Latvian Locomotive are involved.

let me guess... sign and trade e5?

No!! Well, I love Risto and would like to see him. But, not Mantha! Love that kid!

I was leaning that way because of his next contract. He’ll want 7.5 or more

Abso-(frank)ing-lutely not.

I hear the wings are also clamoring for the Latvian locomotive, so I guess I could do you a favor and toss him in

Only if we include Hronek along with the original Mantha and AA.

I also heard Dubas is real sick and tired of Marner and his shenanigans, so whoever gets Risto can instantly flip them for the chance to talk to Mitch's pops next.
The July deadline has come and gone. Late August dominoes are ready to fall and create bedlam

I feel like I'd need to add Sobotka to balance the package
