Seems like a solid fair deal to me

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Ehlers can't sign an extension until July 1st, draft is in 5 days

Ehlers can't sign an extension until July 1st, draft is in 5 days

I’m aware, but it can be negotiated. I know that’s what the Sabres did with ROR in 2015.

 

[Thechozen1]

As a Jets fan, this is the type of deal I’d strongly consider.

No it can't, that's the point. It's not like Buffalo doesn't have the assets, just wait until July 1st then talk to Ehlers legally

 

[Neutrinos]

Don't like it for the Sabres...

I don't see either Ehlers or Iafallo as a pressing need for Buffalo, and I think signing Ehlers to an extension would turn out about as well as the Okposo and Skinner signings

Same. Doesn’t address their need for a center, it actually makes it worse and it moves one of their best trade chips in making that hole bigger.

 

[FlappyGiraffe]

I'd accept this offer

Yeah I'm not saying I would or wouldn't do the above deal, just gauging value. But if Adams is in the market for a top-6 forward, the deal is likely going to look something like this.

No it cant

Not moving 110A for a 1-2 yr rental.

Then you have a C and RD hole

This takes up just about all of their cap space so thryarr in the under $2M contracts.

If you want an extended Rhlers you are going to need to move Peterka or Quinn by next summer because you wont have the cap space

 

[Snowman]

The value is nice, but I don't think the Jets will want such a futures heavy deal. It doesn't do much for theJets right now.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Obviously not for the 11th overall pick, but what would Buffalo give up for Josh Norris?

 

[Zach716]

Obviously not for the 11th overall pick, but what would Buffalo give up for Josh Norris?

He's not tradable with that contract and injury history imo

 

[Djp]

Buffalo had no interest

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

I'd say yes but the issue with this is Ehlers is not going to sign an extension with Buffalo.

 

[TommyDangles]

We just got over Okposo's deal & almost done with Skinner

Not sure why so many Sabres fans want to add another contract like that

 

[10Ducky10]

As a Jets fan, this is the type of deal I’d strongly consider.

Why?
Krebs is a bust and Joker is a 3RHD.

 

[Uberpecker]

Shouldn't one of the objectives this off-season be to clear a roster spot on the wing in order for one of our high-octane prospects to be able to become the next Ehlers but on an ELC?

 

[Prairie Habs]

No it can't, that's the point. It's not like Buffalo doesn't have the assets, just wait until July 1st then talk to Ehlers legally

Yes it can, it just can't be signed. It's not like talking to a pending UFA on another team, that would be tampering, and you can't tamper with your own player. If winnipeg gave Buffalo permission to frame out a contract, it wouldn't be against the rules. Ehlers wouldn't be able to sign it until July 1 and Buffalo wouldn't be able to hold him to it if he changed his mind.

I think the main target is to reach the playoffs and improve the roster.

 

[DickSmehlik]

Elhers injury history concerns me. Prior to this past season, he went 5 straight seasons missing significant time.

He'll want a lot of money for a guy who spends a good chunk of each season in the press box.

That’s a 25-26 plan when Skinner’s buyout becomes much more of an issue

LMAO, you know the NHL can’t control the tampering and even they know it. That’s why there were giant contracts handed out in free agency a minute after it started. That’s why they gave up and added the “Negotiation Period. I don’t see why you are trying to make it a big deal. It’s a fantasy board have a little fun.
