Still should of got more and the wrong traded player but strangely these were 2 of the primary players I liked from Utah. Doan's heritage and the fact he plays a similar style to his father was part of my interest in him. Even if he isn't Shane Doan levels, if he can embrace that Power Forward role along with his high end motor he could easily be another Benson type.

We got 2 solid players in a underwhelming trade with Peterka; furious about the lack of creativity and the general smugness of our incompetent GM but at very least the players we got are players I like. I'll miss JJ though, was an electric player at times and his skill will be missed unless we can replace him in some manner. I won't miss him on the PP though with his Catch-22 passes to Dahlin where'd he'd put our PP QB in a unwinnable situation.

The worst part of this deal is I actually do like the players we got back but still feel shafted. This plus a late 1st or a couple 2nds and I feel much less livid.

What's that in Buffalo? 5x8.5mil or something due to taxes?

I kind of feel like taking a walk off a bridge at the moment; my favorite hockey team is just becoming the ***** Pittsburgh Pirates where cheap is the name of the game. This trade was hot garbage and fans deserve the right veto idiocy like this.

That's what I fear; that this was the only reason the trade is light

Can we just not, I'm so sick of the endless suffering with no respite

We have better get a killing on this because I like Peterka hope not, he fell off the past couple years

As I’ve said before, the only way I take picks is within a Peterka to Chicago deal for 3 and using some of Byram’s value to get #2 to take Misa who is NHL ready. Otherwise if we use #9, I want the best non-small forward/defender we can get.

Well she is the ownership liaison. It only matters if she’s having input and sway on the decision making. If she’s just sitting there repping the owner than that is likely pretty normal.

They have always intended on selling the Nighthawks; it was part of the stipulations with the league when PSE wanted to keep a team in Rochester after the original team moved. They have been looking to sell or at minimum bring on a new majority owner for the past 3 years. As for BCA it’s a rather old arena that needs continuous maintenance and unlikely brings in much money if any. Without Kim, Terry doesn’t have the same interest in Kim’s PSE baby. Not to mention he’ll soon own a new Bills stadium and potentially have to purchase the Key Bank Center. There are plenty of things to target Pegula for but this isn’t anything special or mischievous

https://puckgm.puckpedia.com/rosters/700891 The general crux of the idea is that Guerin wants to get younger and sees Muel as a potential fixer-upper.

They have been trying to sell the team for awhile now; owning 2 teams in the same league is a tad odd to say the least.

Jamie Drysdale is what they have, Zegras's best friend

For Peterka, few names here are even worth while to look at. 1. I have zero interest in any trade including Toronto(spite) 2. Kesselring has 1 good season and 1 year on his contract so for Peterka, no 3. Miler is garbage, Cuylle is very possible "Fool's Gold" and Schneider alone can't fetch Peterka 4. Too old, small, and under contract 1 year 5. Cernak or Cirelli sure. 6. Andersson would likely be a rental and has fallen off as of late, Coleman has 1 great year surrounded by eh 7. Romanov is offensive, Dobson is at least interesting and Pageau is freaking cap dump 8. Rust far too old and relies on Crosby too much to trust 9. Silinger has yet to surpass 33 pts in a season and his analytics dropped off a cliff last year 10. Neighbours isn't enough, Kyrou is kind of just slightly older Peterka making 8mil and being more PP merchant like and Parayko while older would be perfect for Power's RHD 11. Mercer has 1 good year out of 3, good being relative; Nemec is too much a wildcard to trade a consistent 28 goal scorer for 12. I outright refuse anything with Ottawa, Peterka is likely to explode with Stuztle

No

Offer 5x8.35mil, may even give him 6x8.35mil

I certainly wouldn’t

K Miller isn’t good; I’ll yell it from the tallest building if I must. Chad D compared him to Muel saying he’s just going to be a higher paid Muel. Plus based on Rangers fans history; they aren’t exactly fond of his performance. Plus they actually are willing to trade him which obviously is a reason not to acquire him. After all anything of any value is off limits to Ranger Fans As mentioned, Cirelli’s NTC kicks in July 1st I have no interest in trading a Top 6 winger with potential for a goalie coming off a serious injury with 1 year left on his deal.

If anything I’d lay it on a scale by banning it up to Juniors then just tweak stuff to give a 10 min misconduct in Juniors to Fighting Majors. I don’t want kids fighting but once you reach pro hockey it should be enshrined as a part of the sport.

Can't stand the writer either; he's some holier-than-thou male feminist who hates hockey and everything remotely considered "masculine" He's the reporter who ceaselessly updates on the whole WJC Scandal trial and yet always has an overt bias take of guilty until proven innocent Sings the praises about the PWHL while demonizing the NHL and CHL And you only ever hear him peep up when he can stand on a soapbox and tell everyone that physicality in hockey is evil and not inclusive.

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?

I say no, all banning it at lower levels does is eventually ban it at the pro level via players. It's slowly being phased out naturally; but I'll always be against banning it outright. Once fighting is banned they'll go after hitting using the same concussion reasoning and then we have Icecapades with sticks

It's heavily hedged to the fact he hasn't played in two years and may never return to form or need to retire again. That being said, I never knew you could structure a contract with that much bonus potential. 2 mil cap hit that can balloon as high as 7mil.
