Thxs everyone. Know it's a random question, but was curious
-
Would an Edmonton v. Florida final be the farthest distance btw final teams ever?

Sabres will not be signing Mats Lindgren to an ELC
LGR4GM replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
I'm just perplexed by caring about this at all. Idk, maybe? -

Yes but he has to agree to an AHL deal. Why would he when he can be a ufa? Lots of good skaters in lower leagues that go no where. -

He's a lhd, he's behind at least 2 other prospect lhds. He's behind 4 nhl lhd (3 of which are signed until like 2031). He would be taking up a contract slot which doesn't really matter but still. What's the point? Hagels are rare, really rare. Stop hoping everyone is an exception, most are rules. This is such a non issue. -
I don't understand the worthy angst tbh. He's small and fast. That's kinda it.
-
Can you at least spell his freaking name correctly? It's 5 letters for sake. Byram.

Why? He's not that good. -
Joker and a 3rd maybe?
-
Benson is an outlier, we shouldn't compare or expect others to emulate him. He shouldn't have been drafted 13th overall but more like 4th. I think the only player that could fit that seconded bolded is Savoie. Rosen might be able to handle the 3rd line now I suppose. That said, Adams hoping and wishing on his lucky penny that some 20/21yr old prospect without NHL games shows up and is serviceable is the exact attitude that failed him last year. He should be addressing roster holes by adding bonafide NHL talent, not hoping some kid might if he wishes hard enough be useful.

When the Sabres add Pavelski and Johnston, let me know. Also, I think the OP's point was that the Sabres don't play anywhere near the type of game needed to win the playoffs. The Sabres are like wet tissue paper and the 4 remaining playoff teams are like tempered steel.
-
I think he is gritty and I don't feel he falls as much as you're saying.
-
Not to nitpick but you mean at 21 and barely at 22. Not 19 and 20. Quinn will be 23 in September. Unless you're talking about him in Rochester at 20
-
I all but completely disagree with your take on Quinn here. I look forward to him in 2024.
-
They like Krebs, they are good give him a good couple months at 3c before doing anything. Adams has basically said it. He's looking for guys to round out the bottom 6.
-
I've literally and repeatedly said Adams isn't doing anything and won't do anything of substance. I explored if he could with the assets at hand and he can. Not coupled to Cirelli, probably a 3rd or 4th round pick does it.
-
It does not matter what we trade. Bryson and Jokiharju have to move. Rosen Kulich, and 11 are assets teams would want. Pick whatever combination you're good with of that to get Cirelli and Jeannot. The trade isn't what freaking matters. Being better and making the playoffs matters more to me than figuring out what the exact combinations of some mythical trade are. Besides, Adams ain't doing ***** anyways. He's gonna run back Krebs and add 2 over the hill ufas at 1 mill a piece.
-
And he's only here 1 year if he sucks. We're also adding him because he's physical and the prize would be Cirelli. So we can get Cirelli. You're worried about winning a trade, I'm worried about getting better. In this case, these may not line up.
-
Again, I added to the trade so Tampa would have interest. You can't have it both ways. You can't be like "that's to much!" but then be like "Tampa wouldn't have interest in this other more legitimate trade." Also, you don't have to sign those players to 4mil dollar offers. Jokiharju's QO is not 4million so idk where that comes from and Bryson is easily worth 1.5mil as a 7th defender.
-
I overpaid in my offer to make sure it got done and because there was nothing outside of Kulich we couldn't afford to part with. Sure, that proposal should probably be short Rosen but I ask myself where I put Rosen in the next 3 years and my answer is always 3rd line or lower, I can always trade for a player like that or sign one in UFA if allllll the other guys we have don't work out. Bryson might be nice to keep but in this scenario we can't afford him and he is being replaced by Johnson. Kulich, 11, and Joker is a solid trade for 7 years of Cirelli. Is it an overpay? Yes, in reality you probably include Kulich or 11 but not both and Rosen makes up the other part. Cirelli +Jeanott for Kulich, Joker, Rosen, Bryson and our 2nd round pick is probably a better trade and more likely but in my scenario, I wanted to make sure it was done and I didn't get the response of "LMAO Tampa would say no and hang up the phone!" which we haven't. The important part IMPO is not the trade details in their minutia but in the roster we then have. JJP - Tage - Tuch Skinner/Benson - Cozens - Quinn Skinner - Benson - Cirelli - Jeanot/Savoie/Greenway Greenway - Krebs - Smith Byram - Dahlin Power - Tanev Samuelsson - Clifton Johnson - Chatfield how we get here is of little importance, getting here though is a good idea. Gives us options on all lines and depth with veteran talent. Cirelli and Smith and Tanev have tons of playoff experience.
