Unfortunately the guy they got was a below replacement level player whose trade shocked Canucks fans unable to comprehend why any sane organization would want the guy for free much less give up any type of asset for him.

SwampD Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 17 hours ago, GASabresIUFAN said: What if KA is really trying to tank the team to get one more good lottery pick for his rebuild? Here is the thought process. 1) He knows even with a healthy team, Bos or Carolina would dispatch the Sabres quickly in the 1st rd. 2) He also knows the extent of Tuch and Dahlin's injuries and if both are out for weeks to come, it would significantly diminish the likelihood of the Sabres even making the playoffs. 3) He also knows that any pickup at the deadline that would replace Tuch and Dahlin would possibly decimate his pipeline and possibly his cap structure. 4) He knows that the remaining schedule is a beast 5) Therefore better to tank the team, give the kids max PT, and get the best lottery pick possible to give us more assets in the summer to use to fix problems or more draft capital to fix our lack of D in the pipeline. And it gives him and the team the perfect excuse for why they missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 From day to day to IR. Must mean Tuch is having his lower body amputated any day now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 12 hours ago, PerreaultForever said: The contracts aren't really staggered either. We're spending next to nothing at the moment, and although we have a good lower pricetag on Thompson, all these prospects around the same age, if they are any good, they'll want to be paid around the same time and there won't be enough money to do that. Any team with a ton of high end talent (and high price) has to have a cheap bottom end. the luxury we have with all the rookie contracts won't last long. Well, yes, the Quinn and Peterka deals will come up at the same time and Power and Krebs come up at the same time or 1 year earlier, but there is a really good chance that they will have 3 years worth of Savoie, Kulich, and Östlund on ELC's AFTER this coming season. This year's 1st (provided Adams keeps it) will also be on an ELC at least as long as those other 3. They'll effectively only get 1 ELC year out of Johnson and Levi as well, but both will be under team control for a long time. There is plenty of stagger to the contracts. But as of next off-season, Adams will have to start moving out some talent he'd rather keep to make everything work. (But every team that is actually competing has that issue.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlin will be Dahlin. You pair Muel with Stillman, you have a shutdown pair that is physical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
