TrueBlueGED Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Well that's two Sabres beat reporters that I trust Did anyone leak Sheary though before it happened? Or even an idea a move was being made? I speculated Pittsburgh made sense as a partner, and mentioned Sheary. Does that count? Can I pretend I have sources now?

Sure, after what the SCOTUS has done this week I am pretty sure you can claim anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Mike Richards, a very close comparable for ROR, fetched Wayne Simmonds and Brayden Schenn. I expect a similar return or JBOT shout hag up the phone. IMHO Richards was much better than ROR. Richards played with blood and guts, not woe-is-me. I think Botterill may be more invested in trading ROR than he’s let on. I think this is very likely. Cap-clearing deal to me is Okposo. Well, it might be the acquiror of ROR that needs to clear cap space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7+6=13 Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 is that what he is doing or we should be doing? Pardon me if your joking - but he seems to think something is going down soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsb Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 I'd rather move Okposo because of the term. But make no mistake, I'll throw a party if Bogo is moved. I think someone stole Blue's moniker, no way that's him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Pardon me if your joking - but he seems to think something is going down soon No, I was genuinely unsure. Since he usually doesn't do this, I find his hinting intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 By the way, St.Louis? They have exactly 1 winger, and it's Tarasenko. Given the age group we've publicly stated we want, expect it to be Scwartz or Parayko coming back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 IMHO Richards was much better than ROR. Richards played with blood and guts, not woe-is-me. Find me evidence that ROR *plays* with that attitude. There's nothing on-ice to suggest it's a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Jeremy White said the source supposedly hinted its St L. I like ROR to StL, nice assets to be had and send him out of the conference I am most intrigued by a St. Louis trade of O'Reilly since they have the prospects and young players that would be interesting and actually improve our team. I still would prefer not to trade him at all, but it sounds more and more like that ship is sailing and the trade is inevitable. Are we sure that the "cap clearing" move mentioned is us sending someone out? Could it be another Sheary like move where we get a good player to take on another cap anchor for a few years?

TrueBlueGED Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 I think someone stole Blue's moniker, no way that's him I hate Bogo, but he's gone in 2 years. I have to tolerate Okposo for 4 more! Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the age group we've publicly stated we want, expect it to be Scwartz or Parayko coming back Parayko as a major piece works for me, as he is 25 and locked up on a recent 5 year deal. It seems Botterill and Housley are really focused on defense this off season, so that would make sense. Again pure speculation by me, but interesting.

LGR4GM Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 Palat and Callahan I think if we do that we have to trade something like Okposo or Bogo or Moulson out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samson's Flow Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) Palat and Callahan Palat would be a good LW addition, and Callahan's deal is only another 2 years. But both have high cap hits ($5.3MM Palat and $5.8MM Callahan) - that's a lot to take on at once. I think if we do that we have to trade something like Okposo or Bogo or Moulson out. Right. I don't think we can take two $5MM+ cap hits without sending one of ours out. That Okposo contract looks tuurrible. :doh: Edited June 27, 2018 by Samson's Flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 you would hope they have the deal in place now so they know what they have to fill and work with in a few days instead of making a move and seeing the better UFAs already gone Future considerations. If the new team is not paying the bonus, you make the deal right now and then on July 1st (or 2nd) the future considerations are officially announced as O'Reilly.

Sherman Posted June 27, 2018 Report Share Posted June 27, 2018 I’d also be ok trading to Philadelphia. They have a lot of good young D and forwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
