Galchenyuk is terrible. Like really, really bad.

Rutherford doesn’t even know if he makes the lineup when they have 12 healthy forwards

Kid is been a major disappointment

We should get 4 goals out him instead of 2. Can't go wrong with that, 4 goals in 75 games.

He has 10 points in 20 games. How many other forwards do we have on pace for 40 points this year ? He’s an upgrade on what we have.

Scandella for Gally makes sense for both sides.

Our 2nd best defenceman plays in Rochester.

We upgrade two positions by moving one of McCabe/Scandella.

Gally is better then Sheary, Erod, Okposo, and Girgensons.

Just stop, i'm not going to go 75 pages with you like you do with Skinner, you sound more and more foolish by the day with that. This takes the cake, just stop.

It really isn't as bad of an option as Kyle Turris. He wasn't even in his teams lineup. Yikes

Turris isn’t great and his contract sucks. Easy pass

Wait, he was drafted 3rd overall in his draft, and .5 points is alright with you (2 goals) while you rip Sam while he’s at a .72 per game (10 goals) because of his draft position. And Sam makes half a mil less. You wanna take dumb positions, fine, but at least be half way consistent.

Turris fits a position of greater need, with celery retained, I’d consider.... with celery retained, it’s better than carter.... although still not great. Do something botts! Call Tampa again!

So we traded Scandella for Sam ?

Do I need to explain what asset management is ? I thought this was a group of adults.

Buy low.
- Pegullaville

No thanks. What he gives you mediocre offense 5 on 5 he more than gives back with atrocious defense.

He’s basically a worse Vesey

You mean as stated in the very same paragraph that said poster quoted. The Islanders have been winning the whole time despite the slumps. The Sabres have not.

EXACTLY, secondary scoring which the Sabres lack.
But let's rip 2 of the top 4 scorers on the tream because they are producing

It’s crazy cause if we had another top end forward, that would push those guys down a peg into a secondary scoring role which they would be suited for.

Yeah they really produced when the team needed them, so much of November was a success because they were producing. Yeah but they will have 30 or 40 goals in 82 or 50 to 60 pts in 82 games.

- Pegullaville


At this point Scandella is providing veteran leadership and is the safety valve for Joki so he can do what he does. And it’s not asset management. As of right now, Scandella has as many goals. So how exactly is adding a guy whos getting scratched and not producing while having a 4+M hit asset management? I think you may need an education of what asset management is. 3 teams have given up on him in 12 months. It’s that you call the guys we have underachievers and you want to go get an ACTUAL BUST because... why?
