Kyrou-8.125 million Dobson-projected 10.25 million Rossi-projected 7.6 million Doan and Kesselring-combined 2.3 million Makes sense

Having Tuch and Kyrou( who is better defensively) as top wingers, I would have added to get him

He avoided surgery and should be go to go for training camp

I was worried Adams was going to narrow down trade options for Byram looking for a RHD, did not expect him to do it with his best trade asset. I imagine if they had waited to move Cozens until the offseason there would have been more suitors. I am worried about Kesselring ability to play up the lineup for the Sabres, not because of the player, but the organization’s track record with defenseman outside Dahlin lately is suspect at best. The second last year for Beck and now this trade shows concerning behavior with some asset evaluation. And I do like Kesselring, Doan and Malenstyn on the roster.

Servalli reporting that Jordan Kyrou was available in exchange for Peterka. So that’s Rossi and Kyrou that we know of

Utah has three second round picks in 2026, they couldn’t have gotten the lowest one of them to replace theirs from the Norris-JBD Trade?

Swapping Maccelli for Doan would have made this slightly more palatable.

From Adams

The players coming to Buffalo are fine. The acquisition cost is not

Take home in Utah is about 400k more based on this salary and last years tax rate

There is the contingency

Saved about 5 million on the cap next season

Smart NHL GMs find the dumb NHL GMs and make trades with them

Yeah that sucks

Then flip that to NY for Dobson

Other changes with new CBA 84 regular season games with less preseason ones starting 2026-27

Proposed change all players will have their rights maintained by the drafting team until 22 years of age

Yep especially with Quinn Hughes possibly looking to leave

Oilers trading Evander Kane to Vancouver
