Sabres Trade JJ Peterka to Utah for Defenseman Michael Kesselring and Forward Josh Doan

Please please please be true, I really think Kesserling, playing with Power would be the best we can do

As well he signed for one more year at 1.8 million so if he is the main piece coming back, that opens up a ton of cap to do more things

This is the same guy who said they were buying out Samuelsson. He’s not very credible.

To be fair, we shouldn't take Adams word on anything either.

But back to the possible trade. Unsure how I feel about it. During the presser yesterday whoever asked about the Peterka asking for a trade mentioned it was a get out of jail free card for these guys. I hate that that hits home.

I hate that it signifies this whole thing failed.

I hate that they guy who put it all in motion is still in charge of the whole forking thing.

And lastly I think Peterka is going to be a very good player in the NHL.

It's Seravalli so don't lose your mind just yet.

True but it isn’t like he said Utah is interested in Peterka 

he said the trade is done, just waiting on one caveat, and that likely is a Peterka extension

hopefully not a no move to waive!

It's weird to jump the gun like this when a deal isn't done. If this contingency doesn't happen, was this deal for real? We'd never know. Seravelli is the guy who said the Sabres were buying out Samuelsson.

EF has said many times that teams are finalizing deals for players before its official so it could be the real deal

I’ll be pretty bummed out if it doesn’t happen cause Utah just made so much sense with Kesserling

I went to HF Boards/Sabres and see nothing. What other Sabres forums are there?

Google search is just repeats of what Seravalli said.

Someone on another board I go on is saying there are Rumors it’s a three team trade 

 

Buffalo getting Dobson 

islanders getting 4 overall

Utah gets Peterka 

I don't understand the desire to add Dobson. After a Byram trade the Sabres will still have Dahlin and Power making a combine $19.35 million. I don't think they need to add a $10 million right shot D and spend an even greater % of the cap on puck-moving d-men? No winning team in the NHL is built that way. 

Looking at Utah's roster and trying to be realistic, I'm hoping for Peterka and an add (hopefully not # 9), for #4 and a R-shot-D.

Seravalli ain’t my guy by any means, but he never said the Sabres were buying out Samuelsson.

He said they were looking at moving him or buying him out. I’d have to check to see if he was reporting it as fact, or as speculation. He ping pongs between the two way to often.

I would have to look back too.  But, I thought he was just giving his opinion on what they might or should do.

I wouldn't be shocked if this is for the 4OA.

The quote from his presser, "other teams say this is a 2 player draft but we see it as 5 or 6" is haunting me right now.
