After acquiring E Kane, Would You Trade for O'Reilly or a Similar Player?

[My Cozen Dylan]

Like the title says. Anyone else besides O'Reilly that could be available?

And if you would, what would you give up?

[ZeroPT*]

Hell yes
The only prospects I really don't want to trade in these types of deals are Fasching and Pysyk. The rest are fair game

 

[hattrick3518]

I think the available piece the Avs would have wanted, is now gone...

 

[ZeroPT*]

They werent going to get him

 

[stokes84]

Too much risk because he is a pending UFA. I'm not eager to strip our assets too much further.

 

[OkimLom]

I'd give up Hodgson, Grigorenko, our Remaining late 1st, and McCabe.

 

[Namejs]

One of Girgensons/Grigorenko would have to be involved in a trade for ROR, I would guess. As a matter of fact, I think Girgensons might be at his peak value right now, so assuming ROR is your priority for some reason, it might be a good idea to move Girgs as one of the core pieces.

Girgs + Pysyk + late 1st?

I'd love to have him on the team, but I don't think the Sabres currently have an expendable defenseman that the Avs would probably want to have in return.

I think this is probably the best approach to take but I'm curious if we could dangle Grigorenko for him and see if they bite. I also think O'Reilly is a little expensive but man would having a top 6 of

Kane - McEichel - Moulson/Stewart
Girgensons - Reinhart - O'Reilly

be really enticing. We'd be so hard to play against!

No way to that trade.

We keep Girgs

Moulson will need oxygen on the bench after ever shift trying to keep up with his line mates

 

[Jame]

definitely.

definitely.

he's the perfect final piece to the forward core, fitting in perfectly with the 19-23 yr old core group.

Oreilly wants to get paid, and contend.
We can pay him, and show him the foundation of a contender.

 

[Sabreality]

I don't think a move like that is necessary right now, as far as trading more assets. see what's doin this summer as far as cap dumps/UFA goes. and then again at next years deadline/summer. patience.

 

[joshjull]

Too much risk because he is a pending UFA. I'm not eager to strip our assets too much further.

I'm guessing that aspect will suppress his value to some extent. Kane and Bogo for example are both signed for 3 and 5 years respectively.

I wouldn't want to have that trade either, but I'm just looking through the eyes of someone who's really willing to a) fast-track the rebuild, b) get ROR.

There's no way you get him without losing a valuable player (Risto/Zads, Girgs). I mean, Hodgson + McCabe won't cut it.

Also, Girgs could be overrated right now because of his huge role on the current Sabres team (it's bound to become smaller with every coming season), so there could be some good value in adding him to the trade.

But, once again, I truly hope he isn't going anywhere.

how about the Vanek deal, for Oreilly

Ennis (moulson), Conditional 2016 1st (top 5 protected), 2017 2nd

I don't think Pegula lets Murray move our 2016 1st.

Pretty much my thoughts. Admittedly a huge Ryan O'Reilly fanboy and in every thread about him I post how much I want him, and I only want him even more after this trade.

Not even remotely close

 

[Jame]

i am confident that if the guy Pegula hired to build a contender says, "this will help us win a cup", Pegula won't overrule him for some stupid fan sense of media/draft coverage.

 

[1972]

If Bogosian for Myers was an even swap in Murray's mind. We paid a UFA winger, Armia, Lemieux and a late first for a 23 year old former 30 goal scorer with term. O'Reilly is not going to cost more then that, he doesn't have a contract, has some history as well, and doesn't have the huge upside that Kane does. He probably is pretty close to his ceiling already.

Jake McCabe or Mark Pysyk would be involved, along with our other first rounder this year. I would guess Colorado also wants a physical cost controlled depth guy or two.

Okay, fine. The pick will probably be in the top 10 again and that's a steep price to pay.

I'd be more than happy to deal our 2017 1st, a Grigorenko, and McCabe/Pysyk for O'Reilly

 

[Jim Bob]

Yes and I would also look at Keith Yandle, too.

 

[Beerz]

I'm a bit leery moving Pysyk now.

 

[StlSwedes]

I would be worried about UFA. O'Reilly wants top $ and the Sabres could afford to pay, so they could make it work.

Amendment: The deal is worked on after July 1, Colorado gives us permission to negotiate an extension.
