Take Hronek to arbitration. Get 2 years.

Send him and Hog to Columbus for Jiricek.

Hughes - Jiricek
Soucy - Willander in 2 years.

Then try to flip Hughes for Power.

Power - Jiricek
Soucy - Willander.

That’s youth, size and skill.

I could understand trying to use Hronke and Hog to get Power.

But trading Hughes is beyond terrible unless Dahlin is coming back the other way.

And even then, no thanks.
 
He clearly brought a lot of tequila.

Hughes for Power has to be one of the worst HF proposals I've seen in my 20 plus years on this site.
Dude why would I bring tequila to Mexico?

That’s like bringing sand to the beach.

Think sometimes. I swear.

Sabres would never trade Dahlin for Hughes.

Score one for Good Times Bobby on the who TF brings tequila to Mexico point.

You guys are both out to lunch on the Dahlin stuff though. He will never again be able to tell anyone how Quinn ass taste. Quinn left him far behind.

Clearly meant to say bought.

I'd hardly call trading Hughes for Power as thinking. It's the complete opposite of thinking.

Yes, they would. Buffalo is absolutely desperate to make the playoffs. Getting Hughes helps them achieve that significantly faster than Dahlin who may never be as good a player. Hell, Dahlin is about to start a 11M deal that he has yet to justify being worth. Meanwhile, Hughes has three more seasons at 7.8M and is worth more than 11M

In short, Hughes is a better player, only a year older and cheaper. Buffalo would be tripping over themselves in a one for one trade.

There isn't a player on their whole roster I'd trade Hughes for. At least not one for one.
 
This would make us worse but at least we wouldn’t be paying a top pairing guy $7M or whatever.

I'd rather just pay Hronek. Goodrow for three years basically guarantees we can't improve our forward depth and have to pray Lekk both develops fast and becomes a legitimate top six scorer.

I'm not too worried about Hronek though. Even if he does price himself out, RHD are in such demand we could get back a pretty solid return.

I’m being sarcastic, it would make no sense to make that move where the team is at in its competitive cycle.
 
Ok this isnt fantasy anymore, its staring to read like a bored conspiracy reddit

These 14 games are going to slog by

And necas is so overrated

Some incredibly idiotic proposals of late. It will be interesting to see how the team approaches the offseason - they may have made a rare mistake in the Lindholm trade and what happens with Hronek will be consequential.

At the end of the day how would you qualify lindholm as mistake versus opposite

The best defenseman in franchise history and future Norris winner, no thanks. Power has serious potential but we already have Hughes who already has reached a level of greatness. The Vancouver Canuck version of Paul Coffey.
