Is there not going to be a 3rd jersey this year? Why has there not been even a peep about getting these damn colors back. So tired of the black jersey with grey and sparkles....
I don't think this approach THIS year does any long term damage at all. It's not like you can't turn these younger players into trade bait down the line IF you had to
I wouldn't make any trades for anyone over the age of 25 this year. Fowler, Vesey and let a couple prospects grow into their roles.
Next year, take another look.....
I don't doubt that Buffalo has every intention to be the highest bidder but in my eyes, the outcome does not change much (except making the Leafs have to pay more)
