darksabre Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 9 minutes ago, dudacek said: Absolutely not. Benn is a short-term core piece with a huge contract who has gotten emotionally fat. Three years from now, Mittelstadt will be a better player and he remains an A-level prospect. it would have to be a lesser piece to interest me. I don't think that would interest Dallas though. Quote
Brawndo Posted February 6, 2019 Author Report Posted February 6, 2019 1 hour ago, Let's Go B-Lo said: On the surface I agree, however I'm always concerned when a team is trading away a productive player on a reasonable deal with term remaining. Are they simply looking to maximize return knowing they are going to make big changes? Is he a PIA? Assuming there are no major issues I'd like to see his shot on our power play for 2 years. That's the sort of place that might want to take on an expiring deal like Pominville if the Sabres retained some of the remaining cash due. Certianly not as the only thing, but that allows them to trade Hoffman for some immediate cash relief and future cap space along with something else. Rumor has it they are clearing cap space to make a July 1st run at Bob and/or Panarin . They have space but are not a cap team 1 hour ago, LGR4GM said: LeBrun speculated about Panarin for them Quote

thewookie1 Posted February 6, 2019 Report Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) I’d due Benn for Okposo and SJSs 1st plus maybe a lesser prospect but that’s as far as I’d go Dallas would need to retain some, he’s under contract until he’s 36/37 Edited February 6, 2019 by thewookie1 Quote

thewookie1 Posted February 9, 2019 Report Posted February 9, 2019 Here's a plan to effectively rearrange some deck chairs hoping we find an inflatable raft under one of the new chairs ? The values are mostly based on an assortment of non-Sabre fan comments so Scandella for a 2020 2nd and Sobotka for a 3rd and 5th wasn't my idea entirely. https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/1024012 Quote

Give him up for Sheary? Sobotka: I can’t imagine a team using any assets to acquire him. Edited February 10, 2019 by jame Quote

Bogo's terrible play in recent weeks has cost us two games. I'd like to find a way to send him packing. BOGO has been very good some nights and lousy other nights. While he has weaknesses, I think he brings a physical element to every game and he is a "glue guy" in the locker room that would leave a large void if traded. I would rather keep him. Not sure we could upgrade him either from a callup from Rochester or via trade this year. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted February 11, 2019 Report Posted February 11, 2019 Quote Buffalo needs help on defence. Lots of help. Is it enough to be interested in Nikita Zaitsev with the Leafs paying part of the freight? From the Toronto Sun https://torontosun.com/sports/hockey/simmons-weber-subban-deal-wasnt-disaster-so-many-predicted-for-habs I'm sorry but I'm still laughing. Only a Toronto newspaper would think we'd help them by taking on one of their worst contracts Quote
