Let's flip this around. What is it that you see in Bloom that makes him someone that the Sabres shouldn't trade in a situation like this? Or is it the principle of the thing? Because it seems like most of the rest of us don't see anything special there.

CapFriendly has them at 44, but that's w/o Houser and this guy and probably one more. You don't have to count--it's right up top on the team page--but you do have to verify that CapFriendly has everything.

That's all Stillman is meant to do--replace Bryson and drive Bryson down the chart. Again, on this team, Bloom is nothing special and certainly not untradeable for D depth. Four years ago? Maybe. But it isn't four years ago anymore.

Based upon the number and nature of the forwards ahead of him in the system.

So is Bloom, in this organization. But why do this now?

We knew that.

ok...

Not I.

It is, as long as the owner and fans are prepared for the upcoming drought.

Yes, and I am having a lot of fun watching Tampa, Toronto, and Boston recklessly spend what little currency they have. The Sabres are going to be in good shape soon, relative to those three.

After three years, the league will pressure them to change up so they can sell more stuff.

My fault. For some reason I thought there was an arbitration situation coming up. I may have mixed him up w/ Meier.

McCabe comes with two more years at 4M (and only 2M to Toronto's books). Chychrun doesn't.

No, that is the opposite of what I am telling you. The Buffalo Sabres wear blue and gold and have one of the top 5 logos in the league. Maybe top 3.

No.

I didn't even know that much about him.

Yeah but the condition doesn't have to be about making the playoffs (and apparently for the 2024 pick it isn't). I have a NJD fan friend who's pretty deep into the team etc. and she is upset about Zetterlund being involved.

Hol' up; is it the 2023 that is conditional, the 2024, both, neither? It's not adding up between those two tweets.

Andreas Johansson? Are you kidding?

Over wine and crudités?

I don't think the accusations concern where we went to school--at least none that I have seen. I'm going to send you a PM with a guess as to the teacher, though. EDIT (for the audience): I was correct.

I don't really have an opinion about Tuesday, but Anderson must be in net against the Bruins.

Which roster player do they think they're getting? Bryson?

GR is reporting the Trotz thing now and cited someone other than Friedman, I think.

It's not the first time I have heard it, either. (Although I did think it was Ray.) Whoever it was did use the words "that generation" when referring to Oshie.
