I'm not even looking up whether Risto played under Ruff here. It's gotta be close? Or nah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I like the comedy of poor Risto finally getting a chance at a reset on his career and it ends up being with a team that is arguably actually worse than Buffalo. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spun Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 I believe Risto was a rookie when Lindy was released. I seem to remember Ruff being the coach when the Sabres had four eighteen-year-old players on the roster (Ristolainen, Zadorov, Girgensons and Grigorenko). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fiftyone Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Given Risto's attitude toward rebuilding and playing for an organization with no success, I can't see the Devils being willing to give up much for him considering he only has 1 year left on his deal. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookie1 Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) I have a hunch, Risto for Miles Wood and a pick. Wood being a local would give us a high likelihood for the whole "want to be here" idea Edited June 15, 2021 by thewookie1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they said, they have a huge hole at RHD and have a good quantity of winger prospects and present players including Tyce Thompson, Mercer, and Foote.

Miles Wood is a Lindy Ruff kind of guy, I don't see it happening. Especially for a player that, based on everything he has said in his career, will likely bail once he becomes a UFA in 12 months.

Very true, I do think though that Adams would target Wood for the reasons I listed before 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That Aud Smell Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Okay - I checked. Lindy’s final season in Buffalo was 2012-2013. Risto’s first season was 2013-2014. Who was at the draft table when Devine asked Pegula whether he wanted the team to get harder to play against? Still Darcy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnRobertEichel Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 What's the expected market value for Risto? A second and a prospect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Do they listen to Tyler Dellow? Devils were building their analytics department but are under new management. I wonder about the voices in the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashsabre Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 Friedman expects Buffalo to have a second top 10 pick, NJ interested in Risto, NJ with 4th OA.😜🤣 Dawson Mercer would be a big get. Wood be perfect for this team but I think Devils love him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted June 15, 2021 Report Share Posted June 15, 2021 I need to see a hockey trade here, not a picks and prospects trade. This team will be getting much too young. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
