woods-racer Posted January 1, 2017 Report Share Posted January 1, 2017 Yep. The expansion draft has to be considered in any trade you make. If you're going quality for quantity (which IMHO the Sabres do still have the bullets to pull off) you have to add in to the package that you are giving up the difference in value between your #7 & #8 F (possibly #5 vs #8 if you now need to protect a 4th D) to Vegas along w/ everything else you are giving up. Just one more reason to say "#### you" to Darcy Regier & his "suffering." The timimg of the tank was horrible & now the timing for rebuilding stinks too. And ftr, I expect Bylsma gone by the end of January. Uncle Terry steps in on an interim basis & they grab a young up & comer (Dineen maybe?) to actually teach the kids next year. & THAT guy gets them back into the playoffs. I've been banging the All Star Break drum for the timing of HCDB dismissal. It's a big bunker and a lot more are welcome to join! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
