Raise you 1500 points.
The only guy putting up 1500 points on our team is Jankowski.

anyone remember his emergency call up game when he first scored and the whole dome started chanting his name "BEAR-CHEE BEAR-CHEE" it blew me away
it was obviously justified tho, he is THEEEE Sven Baertschi "original flames saviour" circa 2011
I think you mean Gaudreau.
Baertschi easily ends up with 1400 points.
I've gone full Sven now
I've got one
I have been picking Sven to make the team out of camp.Choo-choo all aboard! AF, get the on the Sven hype-train with me!
Do you guys know if Sven will still be waiver exempt next year, or will he have to clear if sent down?
Hey Flames fans, Buffalo fan coming in peace, congratulating you on your surprisingly good season so far. Question, plain and simple: What would it take for Buffalo to get Baertschi, preferably after this season? Keep in mind: I don't want to insult you guys by lowballing your player but it's obviously an attempt at buying a somewhat fallen stock and betting on it to rise again, while taking on the risk of him being a bust. So what could be a deal we would both benefit from?

The fact that you mention "low balling" and "fallen stock" in your post already gets things off on the wrong foot. You're looking to go bargain bin shopping and I wouldn't do any sort of deal. Honestly, due to the depth we do have with guys like Granlund, Reinhart, Ferland and Klimchuk, I'd rather let Sven bust if that were to be his fate rather than deal him for scraps. For the record, I don't anticipate him to bust.
I might consider Pysyk straight up, or I'd probably ask for Zadorov for Baertschi and a 2nd. That may seem way to steep for your blood, and as I said I'm fine with that as I'm in no rush to see him moved for scraps. I still firmly believe he has top 6 or even top line potential if he can find consistency in his game. Especially on a roster like ours, we definitely have room for a top 6 player like him if he starts contributing.
His stock has "fallen" to others around the league because he's been playing in a developmental league developing his game. No question we all wish he was further along, our old management mishandled him, but that doesn't change the fact that he has a rare skillset.
