Mr. Allen

Obviously not. But Ottawa was probably like, “Adams is an idiot, I bet I can get a 2nd out of him too…”. He seems to just hand those things out.

It’s an asset. It’s something you can use for a different trade. Why just give it away? With your thinking we might as well just included our 3rd and 4th as well.

Can’t believe Adams gave up that 2nd. How embarrassing for him.

Until we win the lottery and get Misa. That’ll bump Norris to 3C which will be good.

Wasn’t it Brady’s brother that ruined Cozens?

They may be similar, but sometimes shuffling the deck can help out. Maybe we traded a 6 of clubs for a 6 of spades, but it gives us the flush….

I don’t know why, but I’ll always remember being shocked and pleasantly surprised we got a 1st for Goustad.

A 1st with retention hopefully.

Zucker hurt or being held out for a certain reason?

I think before we hire any of those guys we need a really good President of hockey operations. Allow him to pick the GM and they can pick the coach. Stop allowing the person who has been making these decisions (Pegula?) and allow a fresh set of eyes start over. Because whoever is making the big decisions has done pretty poorly the last 15 years.

In not sure Josh needs or wants a true #1 WR that he feels he has to force feed the ball to. He was very successful with his “everyone eats” style of play. And I don’t think it was a lack of a true #1 WR that hurt us. It was honestly just the D.

He would look so good with Josh throwing him the ball. But he wants a new contract to whatever team trades for him. And he wants a lot. No thanks.

Trade or resign Zucker. Then he can be done.

His mom and family are still a 5 hour drive up north.

Canton, NY!

Sorry. I didn’t see Lachance was already being talked about.

NJ Devils took on some money to help out a trade and got a prospect for it. The type of prospect that I think our organization should be targeting. I get jealous when teams make moves like this. “Shane Lachance, 21, is a sophomore and captain at Boston University. The 6’5” left winger has 25 points in 32 games for BU, though it should be mentioned that he’s capitalized on a lot of power play time that he won’t get at the pro level. Per SportContract, Lachance ranks third among all BU forwards in average time on ice (17:27). The former sixth-round pick is a late bloomer who plays a hard-nosed game and, at least at the college level, complements skill guys as a power forward. Lachance is a project but he has the tools to become a character, bottom-six winger in the NHL. Even with that limited upside, he’s worth taking a chance on for the cost of unneeded cap space and a few dollars out of the owner’s bank account.”

Can someone clarify this for me. I thought players that signed with KHL could be “bought out” and brought to North America. Is that not possible?

I can’t believe you would actually ask that question. I thought you were one of the smarter posters. Sabres would destroy the Amerks. Wouldn’t be close.

Let’s have a thread only for transactions and not conversation.

Oh. When he was putting up 2 points a game was after he was drafted? I get it.

I like looking at those numbers. They are insane. And I know he didn’t put up numbers that sick, but Savoie put up incredible stats too. I’ve never watched Misa play so maybe he’s more Bedard than Savoie. But stats at this stage doesn’t totally sell me on a player.

If Adams is indeed gone after the season, I say give all the ammo to the new GM. Let’s say Adams trades Cozens for a player, then Adams gets fired, then new player doesn’t fit new GM’s plan. Would be a waste.

Oh yes it can

If all we get for Joker is a 4th then we better just keep him. And I really hope we don’t bring Levi up the rest of the year. Let him and the Amerks go win a championship. That’s more important than whatever we’ll get for Reimer in my opinion.
