Where exactly is Seattle on the Waiver List?

Go get Barre KA, and maybe Subban too

He’s surprisingly looked better at center; keeps him moving

Sort of, minus the D1 force feeding

I wouldn't hate any possible deal. But yours is giving us far too much risk due to our current situation. Plus I really don't want him traded in the Conference, especially any divisional team or NYR

They don't have a 1st in 2022

Nope, I'm not risking my '23 1st. Because knowing our luck he'll take 2 years to repair himself, and they'll win the lottery with our pick and get Berard. I'd offer Florida's 1st but never any of our 1sts.

That's the part I don't understand. Why do people seem almost giddy with the idea of the Sabres failing. Certainly sounds like you want them to fail versus merely expecting them to fail. I know you have a problem with KA but if he succeeds we are all better off.

I'd wait to be honest as the former would be a travesty and put the Sabres management in the crosshairs of every Sabres fan who even relaxed their aim.

Carolina might be in hot water due to them scheduling only 4 preseason games this year and the CBA requires 6 to be played. Furthermore MTL may have tattled on them. 🤣

Well I'd tell Brisson I disagree and he can go on as many radio shows and podcasts as he wants but it won't change that I want significant value for Eichel.

My guess is we get 1 Top Prospect as the payment for Eichel. 1 or 2 Cap Casualties to level the salary cap An assortment of conditional picks

I don't want him anywhere our youngsters this time around.

I wonder if the Sabres could agree to a deal with Anaheim in which he has the surgery while a "Sabre" and then is sent to Anaheim with the Sabres agreeing to pay the percent insurance doesn't cover if he ends up flaming out due to the surgery.

I'll take 1 or 3

At minimum the Sabres should demand a Bluechip Prospect, a cap dump and some conditional stuff.

Vogl's anti-Sabre bias is easily seen by the title's blurb. Nothing in the article points to the Sabres being forced to trade Eichel on the cheap like he seems to want to conclude.

I can honestly understand both sides; at this point though I would let him have the surgery he wants. If he's willing to potentially end his career in order to get this operation then who are we to stop him. My whole run-them-around is in order to not give the idea we are over ruling our team doctors. If the appearance is that of a rogue action by Eichel versus Adams telling him to do it; everyone saves face.

I said with pay, not without pay

But that’s the thing, there wasn’t any other goalies available to sign of higher quality. Plus who’s to say KA didn’t hunt the trade market. Just look how much Colorado had to pay to get Kuemper from Arizona. Obviously the Sabres shouldn’t be trading 1sts for goalies. And if CBJ is asking for the same for Korpisalo then he’s wise not to make that trade either.

You can’t go from 4 1sts to less than ROR. In that case you tell Jack to get the surgery behind closed doors and the suspend with pay until he heals. Screwing this trade up would mean waiting 5 more freaking years to see much of anything and that is completely unacceptable

Defenestration of the owner?

I'll slam the door close if that's the case. The supposed offer was garbage so Adams had better not have started dropping his price anywhere near a bunch of question marks

You can't suspend him for not getting a surgery but you can suspend for getting a surgery against the wishes of the team.

Zero The Eichel trade should focus on getting a number 1 center prospect. A goalie is the least of my concerns in regards to the Eichel trade
