As Napoleon once said "never interrupt your enemy when they're making a mistake"

You truly believe JJ Peterka for Jason Robertson straight up, is a reasonable trade offer?

I have no problem being laughed off. I would hang up and move on.

And Dallas would laugh you off the phone for your offer here, which is why I'm not going to refer to it 25 times because ik you know that not a full deal.

Focus. Peterka, 9oa, prospect

In a previous post you were willing to throw in Byrum into the deal. That would bring me to an absolute no because I would prefer using him in another deal.

What do you think a 100pt forward in their prime costs? Like for real? Peterka, 9oa, and a prospect is basically the price. It's always the price give or take a sweetener. Eichel: Tuch (Peterka), Krebs (prospect), 1st round pick (which was 16th oa), and a 3rd round pick.

True, 71-65-15 is over NHL .500. But his wins/loss record is 71-80, below in DeLuca .500.

A more proper evaluation is that the Sabres would have a better record if a more consistent goalie was in net.

My hairstylist asked me how would I like my hair cut. I told her to cut the gray off. I ended up leaving the establishment very bald. On the positive side I now where my Bills cap a lot.

You have a keen eye in recognizing that my position is grounded in my having more faith/expectations in our players than many here have. We shall see.

If the deal was straight up Peterka for Robertson, I would take the deal. In my opinion, some of your previous proposals were too generous for what we would give up .

Just had to sit back and wait. Evil never makes it to the finish line.

Well, if that's the price, you do it.

They all look like my daddy.

If Dallas is looking to move Robertson, they most likely will not want peterka in return. Their motive would be cap based, and peterka counters that. I could see 9, kulich and a B level prospect/2nd rounder getting it done

Mmmk. But he's over .500 for his career so expecting to lose more than win if he's in net for 30 games, is at least not supported by the numbers.

I don't consider a single one of those players, if involved in a trade, blockbuster.

I definitely agree here, the only thing that Robertson has going against him, is he is NOT a great skater. Other than that at 25, you're getting an in his prime powerhouse. Peterka has a lot of upside, but at the same time, it's getting to the point for players to start feel confident playing here is to win.

Really, 8 characters is too long? Guess them Massholes prefer stubbies. Too bad. You could've swapped out one or more of the B's w/ an 8. (Kind of looks like a B and then they REALLY be confused.)

I swear you can find anything on Google. 😀 Nah, too long and it has to contain numbers. Like TB12SUX, for example.

You are betting on hope. Or maybe faith is a better word. Neither are data based. Are not a good substitute for a plan. And I don’t believe in hope or faith anyway. You go ahead and estimate, and hope that it isn’t an over estimate. I hope you are right, but I’ll not expect it to happen at any point.

Or I can trade Peterka and don't have to think, it's just Robertson is better.

Your response is well reasoned. However, don’t underestimate the challenge it will be to upgrade the goalie position and reconfiguring the blueline unit. And don’t underestimate how much it will improve this team. These are the priorities that need to be addressed. Where I diverge with a lot of the responders is that I strongly believe that young players such as Power, JJP and Kulich are ready to produce at a higher level a lot sooner than they think.

Wonder if you could get BGDGGBGB? They'd probably consider that even more profane.
