So going back and reading that, if the Sharks miss the playoffs, we could still get the pick unless they decide to give it to Ottawa instead? That's...weird Ottawa probably demanded it. 11 minutes ago, thewookie1 said: That condition should be contested by the Sabres. They shouldn’t be allowed to play with a pick they already promised us. Not to mention, if they miss the playoffs in theory they could not defer The Sabres already promised SJ that they could play with it.

LTS Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I just love the "You can't trade him back to the Eastern conference without giving us more." condition.

I interpret that clause as evidence that SJ does not in fact have an extension worked out with Karlsson. Or perhaps they do, and Ottawa is just out to lunch on this too!

North Buffalo Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 What if SJ doesnt make playoffs in either and slide 2019 to Owawa then 2019 they are worse because Snarks lose Carlson to FA JT retires ecetera. Would Sabres be better off with higher pick in 2020 and spreading out 1st rounder... thinking out loud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly, but it's okay to trade him in the Western Conference... or trade him in the Western Conference to a team that moves him to the Eastern conference. Were I the GM in Ottawa I would have written that if Karlsson ends up in the Eastern conference this year we get a better pick. Or, I would have simply said, if you trade him at all. I don't suspect there's any way Karlsson gets traded (unless the Sharks have a massive collapse or significant injury epidemic). But... the possibility is there.

Randall Flagg Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 Don't teams only play division opponents a maximum of 5 times? You know we're going 1-4 against Ottawa this year But sweeping Boston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If SJ misses the playoffs this year, then they keep their 2019 1st which goes to OTT, and BUF get's their 2020 1st. If SJ makes the playoffs this year, BUF gets their 2019 1st, and OTT gets their 2020 1st. 40 minutes ago, thewookie1 said: That condition should be contested by the Sabres.

They were always getting the 1st in 2019 if they made the playoffs, and always getting the 1st in 2020 if they didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted September 13, 2018 Report Share Posted September 13, 2018 I'm glad Karlsson went to the West. Word has it he wanted out of the Atlantic as soon as he heard Dahlin had arrived to take his place... --- Isn't Norris supposed to be a pretty good prospect?

Not to mention, if they miss the playoffs in theory they could not defer They AREN'T playing w/ the pick that belongs to the Sabres. They are playing w/ their OTHER 1st round pick of the next 2 seasons. Unlike the pick the Aisles decided to keep to use on DalColle (sp?), which team owns which of the next 2 SJ 1sts has already been spelled out. SJ makes the playoffs, the 2019 #1 belongs to the Sabres. SJ misses, & the Sabres get the 2020 #1. No decision making occurs beyond that. And SJ just decided to use their next available #1 as part of a package for Karlsson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GASabresIUFAN Posted September 14, 2018 Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 what does this ultimately do to our Kane picks? I guess SJ is going all in. They won't have anything in their pipeline for about 5 years until they start tanking on purpose. Can we now officially say that Ott is tanking?

LGR4GM Posted September 14, 2018 Report Share Posted September 14, 2018 Pretty dumb to tank when you don't have your own 1st round pick in 2019, but Colorado fans should be pumped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I'm reading it correct, we get their 19 pick if they make the playoffs? Ottawa gets it of they don't, throwing us to the 20 pick, is that correct?
