I would even drop the 2021 1st and just take the 2022 1st if Edmonton would retain $2million on Neal's contract.

There is no way Edmonton is offering two firsts and Bromberg. That’s like offering three firsts when no one else seems ready to offer one.

That seems like a low-rent rumormonger site.  I will be shocked if they get 2 firsts for Hall.  

If you're taking on nearly $6 million for over 2 years you get at least a first

It does seem like a rumormongering site.

But let’s look at it like this:

(1) Buffalo retains 50% on Hall

(2) Hall agrees to a contract extension with Edmonton.

(3) Buffalo takes on 2x$5.75M cap hit James Neal.

What is all that worth?  2 1sts?  Maybe.

Seem to be out of proportion to whatever rumors have been swirling around for the past week.

But thank you Mrs Adams for trying to help Kevyn out by resetting the bar on this trade.

Huh?

Two Firsts is one of the few scenarios where I would consider taking on Neal. 
 

His buyout would cost the Sabres 1.9 Million for 4 years though or 5.75 for two seasons. 

Is that worth a 2022 First? 

Getting all the rest of that is the absolute minimum for taking on Neal's deal.  Bringing him in puts them at over $20MM on 3 guys that haven't exactly excelled recently (Neal, Okposo, & Skinner).  Still expect they should say 'no' to that deal.

I think I’d be fine if it was just Bromberg.

My predictions are: He is extending with Edmonton and a 1st will be in the deal or

he is going to NYI for Bellows and a 2nd.

Nobody named Kiefer will ever find success in the NHL

@LGR4GM wasn’t Bellows your boy? What’s he up to these days?

No love for Kiefer? He could still be a player?

I’d take either.  Bellows and a 2nd might be the better deal.

I’m going to be totally honest: I am unreasonably and idiotically willing to write off a prospect purely based on a dumb name.

What are your thoughts on 72?
