GDT: 2019 Trade Deadline (Two Sabres trades!!)

[Beerz]

Wouldn't mind Zucker .... contract makes me nervous tho

 

[GellMann]

Definitely hope we look into signing Dzingel in July.

[Sabreality]

that Zuc return seems light to me

Even with his fall-off I agree, though the conditions make it better. The third goes to a first if he re-signs, and the 2nd goes to a first if they make it to the WCF

 

[Beerz]

Maybe not.

 

[Sabreality]

oh ok, but not sure either of those conditions really get met. Stars getting to WCF is still a longshot & they should just look for a similar UFA and keep their 1st.

 

[CatsforReinhart]

Lots of action early.

What might be buried in the fine print is if dallas traded his rights similar to the Miller /Ott trade where St. Louis 3rd coukd be a 1st if resigned or rights traded.

Zucchini wasn’t getting a 1st unless a team really wanted him and didn’t care.

 

[Hockeyfan6781]

It's a tough market......

Jesus I just had a Darcy flashback....

 

[Der Jaeger]

Botts should be in on Stone.

We have the pieces to get that deal done.

Mark Stone with Eichel and Skinner is the best 1st line in hockey, if it comes together.

 

[Gabrielor]

Acquire Stone without giving up Reinhart, and this tdl will be arguably the greatest ever.

The liklihood of the Sabres going all in for Stone is minimal. Could we beat the other offers? Probably. But get Stone, resign him for 10+? Then sign skinner for a minimum of 9+? I cant see it being something Botterill will go after with any force

It's the trade deadline. Let us dream for a moment before we have our hearts crushed.

yeah I don't see them being in the Stone sweepstakes sadly.

It does usually end up being being a buzz kill when youre the voice of reason lol.

Dude Stone for 10+? Yikes

 

[tsujimoto74]

Zucker being shopped. With the bargain bin prices MIN has been moving players out for, I hope Botts givs them a call. I'm fairly convinced last season was a career year for Zucker, but he'd still be a useful player for us.

 

[Djp]

I envision the Toronto hotel being similar to the bachelorette meets speed dating ...players called out of the main room then they watch to see who’s suitcase gets taken....

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

No way should stone be getting the same or More as Eichel AAV.

I envision Beaulieu for a 4th. Poms for a 3rd/4th. Sabres acquiring a bottom 6 forward with toughness.

What Id LIKE to see is Guhle, Nylander and a 2nd or two used to acquire a 2nd line winger and a true 3C.

And of course Skinner extended the right after the TDL for 8.5 x 8 with a NMC first 4 years.

I look at trading for and then extending Skinner as a TDL move. I would not approach Skinner about waiving his NMC for any less then 2 1sts+top prospect. If Duchene got a 1st+conditional 1st then I would want more considering Skinner is younger, a top 3 goal scorer this year and coming into 2018 had the same amount of 60+ point seasons as Duchene. Pretty much only trading Skinner if its an overpayment or will not extend.

Honest question-is that contract worth it to you?

 

[Havok89]

I think it is. He’s essentially a much better Connor Sheary on the RW. Cannot drive his own line but would cash in chances from Skinner and Eichel.

 

[sabresEH]

6 points out. Game in hand. Deadline on Monday. Are we buying or selling?

If this team was firmly in a playoff spot I could have seen us going after B level rentals. I could still see us trading Nylander, 2nds or Guhle in a trade for a middle 6 forward with term. If Nylander could be used in a trade for say AA from Detroit then I would be all over it. If Nylander isn't getting any games at all and players like Smith and DOR getting call ups over him then I do not expect Nylander to be long for this organization. Would be great if we could add a top 6 forward with 2-3 years left for Nylander+Guhle+2nd that would be great.

This team needs 28-30 of the possible 42 points. Unless we string off a 5-6 game streak right now then I expect us to fall just short whilst making it if we were in the West. Thats the way the cookie crumbles some times.

Trade Olofsson he deserve better then this

What does he deserve? He’s a rookie being asked to mature his game in the minors, learning to win. Next September. He’ll have a great chance at making the big roster and then it’s all on him.
