RangerDave Posted July 12, 2023 Report Posted July 12, 2023 There have been a lot of discussions recently about who we should trade, when, and who we should get in return. This made me remember some of the trades that I wish we hadn't made. Who have the Sabres traded away that made you sad? Not trades that you felt were not warranted or where we did not get good value. But who was traded away that you personally liked and were sad to see them go? For me, it was Brian Campbell. I don't think he really wanted to leave, and his press conference was heartbreaking when he asked the fans not to boo him when he came back with his new team Who ya got? 2 Quote
Carmel Corn Posted July 12, 2023 Report Posted July 12, 2023 Brayden McNabb.....we already traded Peter way back when and that was a mistake. Trading Brayden was the second time we traded away a McNabb and shouldn't have. 5 Quote

JoeSchmoe Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 (edited) Andreychuk... Especially given losing him also meant we'd be playing Fuhr instead of Hasek. We win the cup if this trade is not made. Edited July 13, 2023 by JoeSchmoe 6 2 Quote

Porous Five Hole Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 The Stu Barnes trade bummed me out. He was a good soldier for a perennial playoff team and scored some big goals. And he had a huge smile that flashed after he scored. But by the deadline of the 02-03 season, the Sabres were on their way to a 72 point season and Stu was moved to help retool. 3 Quote
msw2112 Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 Rick Martin, Danny Gare/Jim Schoenfeld, and Ryan Miller come to mind. 6 1 Quote
tom webster Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 Peter McNab and while it wasn’t a trade, letting Dudley go to the WHA really pissed me off. 2 2 1 Quote
GoPuckYourself Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 Trading Tom barrasso and Phil Housley definitely come to mind. Quote
Taro T Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 1 hour ago, Brawndo said: Danny Gare and Jim Schofield This was the one that REALLY hurt. Pretty much closed the era on that 1st version of the team. (Even more than Robert becoming Van Boxmeer or Martin and Korab separately getting traded to the Kings on the same day.) 13 minutes ago, GoPuckYourself said: Trading Tom barrasso and Phil Housley definitely come to mind. Housley became Hawerchuk. The only sad part of that trade is that Arniel and Ducks were best friends (they were the best man in each other's wedding) and not only did Scott convince Ducks that Buffalo would be a great place to play but they really wanted to play together again. But would dump Phil for Ducks every single day of the week and twice on Sunday. The problem with the Barasso trade is they didn't really get very much for him. 27 minutes ago, tom webster said: Peter McNab and while it wasn’t a trade, letting Dudley go to the WHA really pissed me off. Technically McNab for Savard wasn't a trade. It was a signing of free agents. Never fully understood the mechanics of that one. 1 Quote

We win the cup if this trade is not made. I've said this for years. With Hasek in net and Andreychuk on the top line, we beat Montreal in the Adams Division Final. 3 Quote

We win the cup if this trade is not made. This was the one I was going to also pick. I still remember his 4-5 goal game he had against the Quebec Nordiques and the 3 Stasny brothers. He a was one of the best power forwards we ever had. I was very happy for him when he finally got his SC with Tampa, but it should have been with us. 2 1 Quote

klos1963 Posted July 13, 2023 Report Posted July 13, 2023 While I hated Schoenfeld, the most overrated player in Sabres history, it's pretty funny that 2 of the 3 here lamenting his trade spelled his name incorrectly. 1 Quote
