I WILL NOT ALLOW THIS!!
It's bad enough that our beloved Risto is now a dastardly Flyer, but our innocent and pure Linus can not become a dastardly Bruin.
The $, or the term?
We are talking about 3 @ $5 probably getting it done, so I assume you mean the term is too much. I hate to assume, so what do you think is too much?
I don't really like the 6 years, but the $6 M is not outrageous.
How can they literally trade a player for 'nothing'? Does there not have to be something going the other way? Conditonal pick that is so outrageous that it would never happen? Something?
I believe it was @Thorny who said that the winning window is not Jack's it became Rasmus II's when they draft him.
Who ever said that, I agree with it and that is a prime motivation to trade Jack, as @LGR4GM stated up thread.
What if this whole thing turns upside down?
I have a *hockey trade* proposal along the lines of Smilin' Ger when he went to Long Island and turned 'o la la Pierre into LaLaLafontaine ...
Not saying it is my prediction and don't think it would ever happen, but ...
Jack for Nathan (😎) ... straight up.
I would be all over that ... big time heavy duty.
I am always hopeful and this new fangled wonder drug is really helping.
Long live Hope-ium.
Really, I think the Sabres will be fine. Maybe not good this year, but we will be impressed with the effort.
You are about as far away from NYC as you can get and still be on the mainland.
So, I suggest that either you get yourself to the big *5 O*, or just ignore them.

He was the best talent in this draft. Some chatter that he was not the concensus #1, but not many thought that Power was not going to be the #1 pick.
This all adds up to a no real surprise at him being selected, so not much to talk about.
Fans love controversy ... the Samson trade = controversy ... Jack mess = controversy
