SABRES 0311 Posted July 10, 2020 Report Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Thanks for this thread @Brawndo. I’ve been so bored lately but trade rumors jacks me up. I’m also working overnight with no sleep last night so this woke me up. Edited July 10, 2020 by SABRES 0311 3

There is no Eichel chatter If you are referring to idiotic fans of other teams trying bend the Sabres over and get one of the 5 best players in the game for a pile of feces, well let's not give them any relevance by acknowledging their moronic drivel.

Rasmus_ Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Yes please on Boeser. If Vancouver is really that stupid, then please. 1

Of course you would surprise surprise You’d give up Reinhart for Zadorov ... because like um ... he can like throw the body and stuff. ? 1

No, because our C depth is about equally bad to our RW depth, and C is more important. I'm not gonna sacrifice our C spine now and in the future for a RW. But pick 8... Maybe that would work for me. 1
sweetlou Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Would a Reinhart for Boesser trade be a straight up trade or what team would have to add pieces?
thewookie1 Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Trading Reinhart for Boeser accomplishes nothing; its like replacing a sliver fork with a gold fork and claiming we've made strides. Boeser only has two more years on his contract as well. 8th OA for me, at least, is being saved for a 2C or a draft pick and nothing else. Benning supposedly has shown interest in Risto in the past; I'd look to pair him with a non-Cozens prospect to get Boeser and Sutter. It would save Vancouver some cap space for Markstrom. It would, in the end, hinge on if Benning would like Risto seeing as his RD's will presently be a 30/31 year old Tyler Myers, RFA 26 year old Troy Stecher and LDs filling in. (Tanev's contract is through and he's also 30 now too) 3 1
dudacek Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Boeser’s a heckuva a player who would help any team, but he’s effectively a right-side Olofsson. If we are sacrificing big assets to make a move, we certainly have types of players we need more.
Andrew Amerk Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 If we could get Boeser for someone like Miller, that would be stellar. 1
freester Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 We should only be trading our defensemen not our top forwards. Under no circumstances is Cozens to be traded. 4

That's why I really like Risto for Boeser - its a good hockey trade and the Sabres instantly get better. There would still be a hole at 2C though... 2 hours ago, sweetlou said: Would a Reinhart for Boesser trade be a straight up trade or what team would have to add pieces? I'm not sure what the complimentary pieces of the trade would be since the contracts are similar in value and both run through 21-22. It wouldn't surprise me if we swapped a 3rd for Vancouver's 4th round pick, or there was a prospects swap, for optics sake
Ducky Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Should be getting rid of deals like KO and possibly Skinner and looking at the team in the long run, not the short term. Why trade Reinhart? One of the best players on the team. Trading either of Dahlin or Eichel is nonsense unless going into a full re-build. Pick the best player available at the drafts and develop. You trade picks away when contending. Boeser is a great player but giving up a future 2C or even 1C in Cozens is not thinking long term (if you want to trade Mitts or Cozens, phone the Jets!). I'd try talking Van into a Boeser/Skinner deal if they are dealing him. The Sabres are rich in D. Trade a D like Risto or Miller, for example, for good prospects/picks. A long term plan has to be developed and followed in my opinion. Trading away draft picks and core players is just going to get another GM/HC fired. A few good picks, add a good goalie and the Sabres will be making the playoffs consistently in 2-3 years. Dahlin, Reinhart and Eichel are the start to a dam good core. 3

Brawndo Posted July 11, 2020 Author Report Posted July 11, 2020 Supposedly they are looking for a Young Cost Controlled RHD with Top Pairing Potential. Jokiharju is the only asset they have that fits the Bill.

Please don't insult the intelligence of the board. We all want to unload KO's contract. Half the board loves Reino, the other half think he's a slow skating wuss that can't produce without Eichel. No sane Sabres fan wants to trade Cozens unless the return is prohibitive. Risto or Miller might be the third piece in a trade for Boeser. Reinhart, Cozens, or 8th overall is the starting point. Anything less is a pipe dream. 33 minutes ago, OhMyDahlin said: Reinhart is available... According to who?

Mustache of God Posted July 11, 2020 Report Posted July 11, 2020 Can teams even trade right now? Or can trades only be made by eliminated teams?
