NHL trade deadline thread (2025)

[TehDoak]

How did things shift from Cozens to Tuch/JJ the last week ?

Saying that, I'm not against trading ANYONE on this team that's not #26 as long as the value coming back is fair.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

I didn't like him in the draft and even more so if he becomes, for example, a main part for Tuch, I'll be furious.

Anything they have you like ?

From Tampa? Cirelli, Cernak is suitable, but he has NTC.

Click bait generated by people asking the shoppers what they want rather than asking the sellers the cost.

I’m good with trading anyone on this team.

Absolutely anyone.

I personally do so love the conversation that goes something like this:

Fan of team that supposedly wants one of the Sabres: hey cool you’re trading that guy.

Sabre fan: no, the report is that your team is asking about that players’s availability or that they really would like that particular player.

Fan of team reportedly interested in Sabres player: you should accept this really shitty lowball offer because you’ll never be good. We don’t care what it is that you actually might think your team needs, this is all we can logically afford and we’re actually completely obsessed with our top two or three prospects even if they’re Jack shit.

Sabres fan: the report is that your team is interested. Do you have anything that the Sabres might need? (Insert name of NHL player that would fulfill a need on the current team.)

Fan of team interested in Sabre player:Waaaaa?!? You’re not getting that player. Here’s another offer that is absolute f***ing dog shit.

Sabres fan: well I guess there’s not really any point in discussing this.

Fan of other team: despite not understanding anything about what might actually be required, I’m just gonna make platitudes about how bad your team is/players are.

Sabres fan: OK. Moving on.

That’s usually where it sort of gets derailed by either a fan of another team coming in and having something mildly worthwhile to interject into the back-and-forth or somebody arrives to offer Kirby Dach and a second round draft pick.

Other teams watched Cozens play?

 

[Chainshot]

Other teams watched Cozens play?

If they're watching since the end of the December losing streak, the underlying numbers are solidly 2nd line.

Holy crap that Tuch thread on the main board.

Then I hope they’re watching a bloggers analytics sheets and not the games

It would be insane to allow Adams to make anything but a minor trade.

Exactly ..I don't want this guy doing anything else to try and "improve" the team...He just needs to go.

Why does anyone expect Kev to be fired? Honest question.

 

[VaporTrail]

Why does anyone expect Kev to be fired? Honest question.

That's the problem...Pegula thinks he's great.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

I don't, not with this owner

 

[Zman5778]

Holy crap that Tuch thread on the main board.

That thread is absolutely something else.

"Buffalo hasn't said no to trading Tuch because some Twitter rando said that Tampa is still calling about him"

That's some........interesting.......logic

 

[Ehran]

Why does anyone expect Kev to be fired? Honest question.

Honestly I don't expect him to be fired for at least two years.

I hope, on the other hand, that he is gone by tomorrow morning.

As the saying goes, Hope in one hand and in the other...

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

That's the problem...Pegula thinks he's great.

Yeah - which is why it's silly to say "I don't want Adams making trades" because he's likely remaining at the helm for at least another year.

 

[Beerz]

Why does anyone expect Kev to be fired? Honest question.

I think Pegula feels with every firing there is a reset on the rebuild... that is my only hope of him being fired.

Scarlet Johannsson hasn't said no to dating me because I'm still calling about her.

 

[SundherDome]

Why does anyone expect Kev to be fired? Honest question.

I don't think many expect him to be fired. You can only pay so many people to not work here and the team leaves suggest his extension goes through 25-26. There also isn't a must hire GM out there.

 

[My Cozen Dylan]

Going through twitter to look for reports of scouts going to games.

- We scouted Vancouver 2/6 and tonight.

- We scouted LA on 1/22, 2/5, and 2/8.

- Boston scouted us on Tuesday and we are at their game tonight.

- Karmanos attended Utah/CBJ on 2/6.

Mutual scouting for us and both Vancouver and Seattle last night.

This has the same energy as some guy in HS saying he's still got a chance because the girl he's calling who hasn't answered the phone hasn't actually said no.

We know who we like in Vancouver, who do we realistically like in Seattle ?

Would this page meltdown if we traded for Boeser ?

Something around Quinn for boeser? Close?
