Heh, suggest Cozens for Norris back in the fall. Funny to see if it happens.
Would have loved if they could've squeezed Grieg out - guy is a real PITA.

Kinda of terrified of what the + on our side is. Gonna be a prospect we didn't want to lose.

Sounds like a draft pick. I'm guessing it's a mid-round pick for JBD.

So the Sabres trade Cozens + for Ottawa's version of Cozens +? Change of scenery trade?

More terrified in Norris shoulders or what he can do since his main trick is scoring from the left half-wall on the PP... where Tage plays.

Scared shitless and kinda relieved all at same time
Or Joker is going out in another deal.

Mildly surprised the teams are dealing with each other on something this relatively big. Also, I am sad right now thinking how many years ago 2007 is

Looks like a pick the other way. Anything more than a 3rd and Kev got worked over for a 7th Dman and a very comparable player.

Can Norris wear 23 so that between him and Sammy we always have 23 in the lineup?
I’ll always think what could have been when I see Cozens. That fight he lost just took something from his soul.

Concerned about Norris injury history.

I haven't been giving Adams enough credit. Sure it seems dumb on the surface to acquire players like Byram and Norris who are one bad injury away from being done. But we're forgetting that there are zero expectations for Sabres players to be physically engaged. Injury history is much less of a concern when you're completely fine with players regularly pulling up on contact.

Bernard-Docker would have to be a contender for longest last name in Sabres history.

Docker having lousy numbers with Chychrun and Chabot over the past few years tempers the excitement of a possible OP partner, but we'll see. I think Dmen are less predictable

Shoulda got one game in
Here's my take:
Cozens -
PRO: More runway, slightly cheaper AAV
CON: He's been terrible at puck possession
UNKNOWN: He's stats are better away from Quinn and terrible with him. How much has that dragged him?
Norris -
PRO: Some of the hardest deployment in the NHL
CON: Bad possession stats, has less than 2 shoulders
Cozens -
PRO: More runway, slightly cheaper AAV
CON: He's been terrible at puck possession

Norris -
