Plus, he'd be another style of player we do not need. Soft I'm with you on this. In some ways it would be like doing Skinner again. Different, but in many ways the same. No thanks. It's time for culture change. Don't handcuff Ruff with a huge ego coming in. 1 Quote

Cranky old man Posted July 8 Report Posted July 8 We don’t need this winger. Ottawa isn’t trading him in the 3rd year of a long term deal, unless someone overpaid super stupid. He hasn’t done enough to deserve that. Brady Tkachuk is overvalued by some because his brother’s team won a cup and because of his last name. I’d take a superior grade experienced defenseman from a willing partner to move Quinn and Samuelsson. Teams aren’t blind though, they see two guys (talented for sure) who get hurt every year like I do….. 1 Quote

But you don't get a win unless you play in the game... Oh, you get love for it.. You get hate for it... But you get nothing if you... wait for it...wait for it...wait for it... God help and forgive me... I want to build something that's gonna outlive me... What do you want Adams? What do you want Adams? If you stand for nothing Adams, what'll you fall for?

OrangeSeatVertigo Posted July 8 Report Posted July 8 I'm sure Tk has a no trade clause in his contract. and the last place any high quality NHL player will allow themselves to be traded to is the Sabres. the price is irrelevant. the player will simply say "no" 1 Quote

You're parting with 1 of Quinn, Peterka, or Cozens. You're losing Samuelsson in that trade too. Peterka, Samuelsson, Rosen, and a pick is probably in the ballpark. Also Brady Tkachuk is a LW, not a center. I actually think in division price is higher... you are losing 1 of Quinn, JJ or Cozens and Power... Quote

Weave Posted July 8 Report Posted July 8 A trade with Ottawa for Tkachuck does not make sense for us at all. Win are in win now mode. Ottawa is in win now mode. Any return would have to be from the active part of our lineup, not prospect and picks. We don’t have the depth in our “win now” parts to do this trade. Our depth is in prospects and young players. 1 Quote
... Posted July 8 Report Posted July 8 10 minutes ago, Cal Naughton Jr said: This is what a lot of fans don’t get. “Make a trade Kevyn” isn’t that simple.. Wait. Are you saying a player can have a no trade clause attached to their contracts? And that, because of this contract, even if both GMs (general managers) want to make a trade - the player has the final say? So, Kevyn Adams, the Sabres' GM (general manager) can't just make a trade because not only are other GMs involved, but the players subject to the trade are, too? Quote

JJ Peterka, 28g 22a, 50pts at 22yrs old in his 2nd season. Tkachuk had 21g 23a for 44pts as a 21yr old in his second season. My point is, while I agree Tkachuk is better, is he so much better Buffalo should give up Peterka +++ for him. I'd be skeptical although, this year we'll know. yes he is better by a great deal. silly to suggest otherwise Quote
