HORRIBLE TRADE. Way to go Army you $^@&**@ head!
You do realize that we now have to endure season of Federko and Panger butchering this poor kids name. Please only trade for players like Ott, Smith, Drake, etc to save the fans' sense of annunciation.

Or just dump Vladdy's Cap on somebody and re-sign Hoffman and Bozak.
Perron-ROR-Buch
Hoffman-Schenn-Kyrou
Kostin-Thomas-Bozak
We have options up front, that much is for sure. Now just address the defense.

I know it is easy to rip on Sanford but his underlying metrics have consistently been better than Blais, Barbashev, etc.
Surely I'm not one to defend Sanford but he is decent depth winger for what it is worth.
Not gonna re-post the same pictures but basically, he's a top 50 player in the league and top 10 RW.
He was the driving force on the Kreider - Zibanejad - Buchnevich line for the last several years and is one of the best two-way wingers in hockey.

I am a really happy camper right now. The on ice performance speaks for itself, but I love hearing what a goofball Buch is and how he collects magnets (lolwut?).
If we can keep the AAV under $6 mill I'll be over the moon!

Congrats guys ! Buch was arguably our best forward this season, he really took a huge step forward this year and he added a solid two-way game to his already great offensive talent. He started to play a true 200ft game and can play in all situations, he's a bonafide first line player.
Sad to see my favourite Ranger leave and I hope Blais can add something different.....but the gut reaction is that this is a huge fleecing.

He's legitimately the funniest person in the NHL. I'm going to make a tribute video with a bunch of highlights, funny moments, etc I'll be sure to post it on your guys board when its done

Buch has boosted our spirits. He's in good hands.
Sammy is a great kid who came far. He plays hard, very hard. He makes up for skill with intensity and physicality.

I’m not as concerned about staying under 6 mill. I’d do a 6x6 right now. I’d even do I a 6.5 x6. We need to get this done. We need term

Please do!
FWIW Sammy Blais is easy to root for and a great kid/locker room guy. Worked his ass off from being a 6th round pick to making the NHL, gives 110% every shift and wears his heart on his sleave. Try not to hate him because he was in the return for Buch, Blais is a very likable guy in his own right!

Armstrong once again restores some faith in his process. Lots of works still to do. Love this trade hopefully he signs a good contract that leaves him happy and helps the team.

Well done Army. I know Tank is halfway out the door but did these 2 ever play together? Tank drafted in 2010, Buch in 2013.

Landy should look at our roster and realize adding him makes us a serious contender. Our top 9 would be lethal.

They play the same position so it’s unlikely that they ever were on the ice together but I can’t find any Russian team that features both

That and while he's not the grittiest player, he'll occasionally flip the eff out on someone which is an absolute treat since he's a lovable dufus the rest of the time.

When we drafted Blais, he looked like he was 12 years old. And he was tiny!
He deserves a lot of respect for making himself an NHLer. He has decent skill too.
Blais' hit on the boards in game 7 vs Boston led to the first goal of the game. We were being badly outshot at the time, and Blais' hit changed the game. A clutch play!

It's funny I randomly searched Buchnevich on Twitter at the exact time Dreger tweeted it and had to do a double take because I assumed it was one of his fake accounts.
That’s the ballpark I’m guessing 5-6 years at 6.25-6.5 per. Buch is a beauty. Worth it. Congrats guys
