Player Discussion Jordan Spence

[GCK]

Sabres fan here. Spence would be a great addition for the Sabres if Byram is traded.

I read reports that Ottawa was interested in Devon Levi.

What does Buffalo add to Levi for Spence? Thanks

Jack Quinn.

I doubt Staios is actively trying to move Spence. I think he is just doing his due diligence to understand the market before negotiating an extension. If the ask is too high vs potential return he can pivot to a trade.

I don't think Spence + for EK ever happens. EK is more valuable to the pens as a key piece for another playoff run for Crosby. If they move EK it'll be half retained at the deadline if they are out of the playoff race

I think the rumours of Staios wanting more size and strength on the blueline make even more sense now. Getting out of the division now means going through an even more physical Panthers team.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Please don’t trade him because of your size fetish that has brought this organization nothing but misery.

Carolina and Montreal both made the ECF with d-men under 6 feet.

Enough, Spence is a very good d-men and we can’t get anyone worth shit to waive their NMC to come here.

Bro. The next 10 playoffs can have semi finals of four teams with all players 5’5 and below and people will still covet size.

This reminds me of all those teams trying to get anyone with size they could after Boston won the Cup in 2011. The problem is that every single team except Ottawa has moved on.

Sens scouts have no moved on.

They’ve gone further. It’s not just size anymore, it’s PIM’s too.

Depends how much money he wants. If you can get him at like 3yr x 3.5m then keep him.

Although seems there is a lot more cap room available now lmao thanks tkachuk.

I was actually thinking this yes 4M-iish on 3 years or 7.5 over 6-7 years....

7.5m would be nuts.

Trade him for EK.

Plain and simple.

I want those “ERIK! ERIK! ERIK!” Chants to literally deafen Brady when he comes to town.

Karlsson is UFA next summer. Just get him then for free if he wants be here. Why trade a very good d-man for a 36 year old?

Yes. Every day. Ever. I don’t care about the age gap (is what I wish every girl I liked said to me).

Can we delete this?

They did in the trade proposal thread so I’m assuming it’s on the clock. (Which is kinda bologna, I thought I walked the line fairly well when it came to politics)

FWIW I haven’t actually had a date ever, I’ve been single for 15 years and I’m just looking for somebody who is in their mid to late 20’s. That being said I’m 36 and the world has changed.

I know love is not in the cards for me. That’s ok. I can still donate my money and possessions to charity and make the world a better place. I’d rather die alone at this point.

The UFA pool sucks and so many teams have cap space, plus a rapidly rising cap. People need to get comfortable giving out large contracts.
