I will abandon Team Tuch for Team Marchenko if hes available. I will give my left nut as a blue chip prospect.

Agreed, that guy is an animal. I’d be happier than a pig in shite.

Actually though, convince point to leave and get god knows what. In reality more like sell nothing but Paul cause everyone is trade protected

 

[Point21]

Point for 2nd overall

 

[The Gongshow]

I will admit Its been a while since an offseason with this much activity and trade requests and movement, all before the damn draft!

He could trade someone for a couple 1sts and then turn around and use those 1sts for acquire another Jeannot-esque thug!

Buffalo is 200% doing what Florida did and immediately flipping that pick.

Knies, Thomas, Marchenko, Robertson, Hellebuyck?

 

[The Gongshow]

TRADE POINT, CERNAK AND PAUL NOW AT LEAST WHILE THE FIRES HOT

What does he want lol 15 million per year?

Even if Tuch doesn't end up in Tampa, oh well. JBB seemed more interested in potentially adding a C anyway, so trading for a Trocheck/McTavish/maybe ROR would seem more likely anyway, and have less of a cap hit than either Tuch or Larkin. If he was to acquire Trocheck, they'd still have room for either Carlson or Trouba after trading Paul, and they'd still be addressing both F and RD, if that is the plan.

Dude has either heard through back-channels that hes getting $12-13M, or he really doesn't care about returning to Buffalo.

At these trade prices. Paul could easily get a first round pick.

Trocheck, while a solid player, doesnt really help us get over the hump is size or skill.

Why would he sign? He knows he's going to get more on the market or even push Buffalo to raise their offer. It makes no sense for him to sign right now.

At these prices, Trocheck would be like 2 firsts, a second, and Geekie. f*** that.

He has plenty of skill, and size hasn't been a major factor for JBB, especially among F's, if he feels they are the right player.

Works for me, Vasy can feed him lefts till he begs for mercy

The Rangers seemed pretty clear that they were looking for a 1st, good prospect, and a roster player or additional piece. That may have changed, but that was the ask earlier this year
