I’m guessing most people on here are being critical about this trade because they either weren’t fans in 2005/2006 or weren’t even born yet. Injuries happen.

Especially in April-May-June when the physicality ramps up.

2nd, 4th, 7th Rosen, Bryson for Stanley, Schenn, Pearson

Four of those "assets" are de minimis.  The second round pick is something, I guess.

Jarmo definitely felt the team needed vet experience, grit and added it to the bottom of the lineup. 
 

No one around the Sabres really improved that much.

This move is not a game changer, same as the other ones.

Jarmo tells his team he believes in them and they will be the ones to lead the charge.

He tells the newcomers to stand by and be ready for whatever deployment Lindy needs. Tell your new teammates what the playoffs are like and the sacrifices necessary to win. Be pros and good teammates by having their backs.

Carrick > Kozak, Dunne, Pearson and Danforth. Malenstyn will level them and Carrick will flatten what’s left standing. I like the faceoff and PK aspects of his game.

Stanley, Schenn, Metsa will battle for ice time and may even push Kesselring. They can eat whatever minutes are left. The first two will not let goalies get Luciced. 
 

Scrums will be less fun for other teams.

Gave up four picks for 3 guys who won't make much of a difference.  I'm pretty sure Metsa is a better defensemen than either of the two stiffs we acquired.

Sure, but we now have legitimate depth that isn’t as green as our starters in regards to this time of the season

No man, just accept it for what it is.  A depth move that possibly could be important come playoff time.

Congrats on this Sunday being your last time change.  You guys picked the wrong time, but I salute the effort.

He is like my black and decker wall stud finder... dont use it often, but when I need to hang something, glad I have it...

I disagree - I like these depth pieces. Stanley is better than Metsa and definitely better than Bryson and he adds a toughness we don’t have.

the two forwards are definitely upgrades, even slight, over kozak and 44

Well, a cardboard cutout is better than Bryson, I don't disagree there.  Stanley is not good at all in his own zone.  If we use him only on the PP, I'm fine with that.  I'm fearful of any attempt to play him above sheltered minutes against bad opponents above 10-12 minutes a night.  He's dreadful.

Aren’t we down to a 1st, 4th and 5th only.  
 

3rd & 6th for Carrick, one of our 2 4ths in the Stanley deal and a 7th for Pearson. Our 2nd was already gone.

Don’t they still have these picks in 2026?  Maybe I’m wrong

 

The 2nd they traded is 2027 I believe.

This is quite a depth pickup!

 

7 goals and a shocking +7 on the Jets this year

You gotta be doing something right to have a +7 on a terrible team.
