Seravalli: Buffalo may not have a choice but to trade Peterka

[Beerz]

Players aren't usually coming off their ELC on a team that's missed the playoffs for 14 straight years.

in fact that's literally never happened before.

This is unprecedented territory

OH MY GOD!

 

[Barsky]

You don't know that. Peterka could sign a bridge contract. I wouldn't count on having same production numbers being a plus for Batherson considering he is 4 years older.

You think that makes it remotely comparable to Krebs for Brady? Drakes numbers have improved year over year, every single year and there is no guarantee JJP will do the same. Besides, 4 seasons ago, if not for a donkey play by a Sabres goalie, Drake would have easily surpassed 68 points at the same age. And if you think JJP is signing for less than 5, even on a bridge, idk what to tell you, but I think you'll be VERY disappointed

I have no idea what you are talking about in this rant. What does Krebs and Brady have to do with anything? I have no idea what you are talking about with Batherson being able to surpass 68 points 4 seasons ago because of one "donkey" play by a Sabres goalie????

I never said Peterka would get less than 5 million on a bridge deal. He would probably get anywhere from 5 to 6... that still isn't some huge difference between Bathersons 5.

Maybe take a look back at who I was responding to and what they typed, in the message you responded to then, that should kinda go without saying if you're so confused. I literally quoted it in the message you obviously read & responded to. You don't remember your goalie getting suspended? Not exactly a common occurrence

 

[Djp]

Batherson and JJP had the exact same amount of points and Drake will be making alot less than JJP over the next 2 years, so you're just being ridiculous, Drake and the Sabres 2nd are not that far off from a fair deal

Hes also 3 yrs older. Peterka > batherson

 

[Barsky]

Hes also 3 yrs older. Peterka > batherson

4 years and yes, hence why there's a second attached and I said "not far off" implying more would need to be included by Ottawa

Why.. I was responding to what you wrote.. I have no knowledge of your previous conversation with someone else.

I took your comment at face value and responded accordingly.

It's not your first time on here and I quoted what I was responding to in the message you responded to, come on man

Stop being daft. My response was in connection of the Batherson + 2nd comment being a good deal. You know.. the comment that you "liked". It had nothing to do with another posters sarcastic comment about Krebs for Tkachuk.

I'm not the one being daft, you responded to me when I was responding to someone else and then pretended you had no idea what I was talking about. I also didn't say it was a "good deal" so I'm really wondering about your reading ability now or if you're intentionally just trying to be inflammatory

 

[GCK]

I’d offer a 1st, 2nd and 3rd and if Buffalo says no I’d put a 9.3M 1 year deal in front of JJP.

My reading ability is fine.

All I did was counter your point about Batherson is going to have such a better contract than JJP. I said you do not know that.

And Buffalo matches. Depending on what team this is coming from.

No problem other than Buffalo is in a bad spot with the player and the contract by matching.

Whole Lee Fack this thread is beyond done.

He will be making less money and you know that. Take care

 

[THUNDERBURST]

Peterka for Rossi or Peterka+ for Robertson

 

[Beerz]

Which i already conceded

If you say so haha

 

[GCK]

If you say so haha

It would leave the Sabres with 14M to sign Quinn, McLeod, Byram, Levi and that’s simply to have a 21 man roster without any buffer. This is assuming Pegula spends to the cap.

 

[Washed Up 29YearOld]

Honestly I understand selling high on JJ Peterka, he's a young 1st liner and the price should be really high but it need to be realistic.

I wish Montreal could land him but he's probably too expensive.

It would be selling low if anything. Kid's 23 and almost PPG.

Byram is likely being traded. Quinn is likely getting a small bridge... he is probably the one most at risk of being offersheeted. Levi isn't getting anything substantial.. McLeod will have a modest in the 5's... and other trades are possible with moving out undesirable contracts.

It isn't an issue at all.

Okay. Will the owner spend to the upper limit ?

 

[Beerz]

If needed.

He's been willing to in the past
