Your level of class is on full display. Act like an adult and grow up.

Tuch may be another player who might not want to be here. We'll have to wait to see how things materialize with him. If the team struggles next season and is out of the playoffs he might prefer to be somewhere else.

And blocked 🚫 Continue your whining, boring, incessant trash talk of the franchise at your leisure. Also @JohnC kiss my ass.

If you don't like what I'm posting about the inept GM and the ragged owner, then don't freaking respond. I don't respond to all your pompous and obnoxious posts. So exercise some self-discipline and direct your boorish attitude to someone else. Who the freak appointed you guardian of the house. There is a simple solution: ignore and address someone else. Your lack of self-awareness how insufferable you can be (not all times) is off the charts. Your brilliance in full display.

Dallas was a genuine SC contender and very likely will be in the mix again next year. Is Robertson replaceable? I'm sure Dallas would rather have him than not. We'll see how Dallas handles the impending cap challenges. As it has been said before by a number of people, good organizations find a way to work within the cap and keep the core together when the window of opportunity is still open. I think they will but maybe they won't. Dallas is a serious franchise that wants to seriously compete. If they can find a way to keep him they will. If they can't do it, they will get a good return for him.

First the constant Sabres bashing in your posts is as I've already noted, ***** annoying. It's in every thing you post regardless of the topic. Second, why would Dallas trade Robertson? Because they don't think they can sign him next year and believe they can trade him and still get better. Will they? Idk, sounds like probably not but they might think they can use that 7.75 million this year and 10 million every year after for players that will help them win playoff games. Colorado traded Rantanen, guess they are at the children's table. Calgary traded Tkachuk, children's table. Teams trade for players sometimes.

They are not going to buy him out. The answer to this team problem comes from within..... 🤣

Everyone... meaning like 2 posters ever?

I would agree JohnC but my thought is this: Dahlin and Thompson are not going anywhere. EVERYONE else IMO 'could' be available for the right package. Afraid to deal Tuch? Remember when Florida dealt for Tkachuk and they traded a 100 point winger as part of that deal and Florida was ripped for it? Sabres can't be afraid right now. Be bold. Aggressive. And have the right plan to truly build a winner here. Example: I may catch flak for this, but if Jason Robertson was every truly available (highly doubt it now) but I would not be afraid to include Tuch. Players like Robertson do not grow on trees.

Are you not aware that Dallas was not in the Stanley Cup finals with Robertson? Maybe Dallas considers him replaceable. You're totally missing the point. You argued no good franchise would trade a useful player even though that's exactly what Edmonton did. It's not a comparison of who's a better player McLeod or Robertson, it's a discussion of why teams trade players.

It's likely that Byrum will be moved. So if Byrum is dispatched, then the return very likely be a different style of defender. Power is staying no matter who is brought in or sent out.

I would agree with this. Power is far from a finished product. My biggest issue was paying Power 8 years. Would have preferred a bridge deal. Would have provided us with 2M or more of cap space the next few years, and also made Power a more attractive trade piece of we did decide to go that route.

I am not on the Dobson bandwagon. We need RHD options who complement Dahlin and Power perfectly.Dahlin and Power take up over 19M AAV, I don't need another 10M defenseman. Way too much $ to allocate to defense. Plus 3 #1 PP defenseman isn't an ideal use of assets.

If you are bringing in Dobson, Power and Byram need to go. We don’t need 3 offensive D. Noah and Dahlin need to anchor their own pair. I’d be thrilled to have Dobson, but it doesn’t solve the primary issue with a team defense populated with Power and Byram.

Why does everyone want to throw Power away like he is a piece of garbage?

All these mock offseasons I see in different place and everyone keeps the goaltending the same. They need a new goaltender.

Banning was the question. When there is fighting in those sports, rare as it is, the players get thrown out.

Absolutely not!

Are you not aware that Edmonton was in the SC finals without him? They considered him replaceable. I like McCleod a lot. He was a good addition. But he's not at the level or of importance to the team he left than is Robertson for Dallas.

If that would be all it took I'd be on it in a heartbeat and I'm not even a huge Dobson fan or of his 9mil cap hit. He's a dynamic player I'd push for more from SJS but eh?

For what it's worth, I've seen a few reports that Dallas is exploring re-signing Robertson.

I'm sorry, remind me again who Dallas traded for and just signed for long term? Was it a winger? Not worth the price? McLeod made pennies last year. Bingo

Maybe they will shed enough cap to keep him. But they likely traded for Rantanen as they think he is a more dynamic player. Rantanen has 123 points in 99 playoff games and has extended at $12 million per season. Robertson has 44 points in 56 career playoff games and will demand $10 plus per year.

Allowed isn't the question and it's not, IMO. Are there fights in basketball? Are there fights in football? Are there fights in baseball? Are there fights in college wrestling? Yes

Used to love watching guys like Shonfield, Korab, Playfair, Dudley, May, Ray but it’s more important for these guys to play fearless than to win a fight. Can’t stand seeing a guy get intimidated off his game. .. No room for guys like that. That being said… there’s already fines and such. Good enough. The game has been toned down enough.
