I agree that Peg would have to give more. I doubt Tyler Johnson waives his NTC.

Cirelli is not being traded from Tampa. Tyler Johnson is a possibility if Tampa ever offered Cirelli for Ristolainen straight up, Botteril do it instantly We need to discuss more realistic trades for Ristolainen I think a trade to Winnipeg for Roslovic and Perreault is likely or possibly Ehlers

I guess the Hockey News writer is using the crack pipe too. ?

I disagree. Peg is desperate for Right Def. Ristolainen is cost controlled. I suspect Ehlers for Ristolainen could happen. Peg needs to pay Laine and others.

Because we would also be getting Pujularvi

I would take Lucic if they would take Okposo.

Sabres should be in on Nikita Gusev and Jessie Pujuarvi. They will cost low assets so the risk is minimal.

I don’t want James Neal or jankowski. We need top 6 forwards. We have lots of 3rd and 4th liners.

RNH although I doubt the Oilers trade him.

Not interested. Only hope of acquiring 2nd line C is via trade for Ristolainen packaged with Nylander or other low cost assets

I don’t want James Neal or jankowski. We need top 6 forwards. We have lots of 3rd and 4th liners.

What is his contract situation?

Agreed. I would rather have a 2nd line center.

Absolutely Florida has to clear cap room. That’s the reason.

Mike Hoffman for Ristolainen, who says no?

Who do we want from Vegas?

How are we going to acquire Zucker?

Here's another scary Botteril move. Ecklund is saying we are after Letang.

If true Botteril should be fired immediately

We need to send them a salary dump back like Scandella or Sobotka

Botteril is just making excuses for his own incompetence

This is highly unlikely. HE is coming off bilateral hip surgery and may not be ready for beginning of season. He needs to play in AHL before coming to sabres

NO That would be a terrible trade

I agree with 3rd line but not 2nd line on a good team.

You are certainly entitled to your wrong opinion.
