Confirmed Trade: [UTA/BUF] JJ Peterka (signs 5 years, $7.7M AAV) for Michael Kesselring and Josh Doan

[ottawagm]

Trying to get Ottawa to up the offer? The contingency is probably Peterka saying he won't sign there.

 

[enthusiast]

@Zman5778 it is time

 

[Kendo]

Hayton+? Kesserling+?

Both would be great targets for them.

 

[LTIR]

Maybe a 3rd team is involved

Yo Buffalo , i heard you like to rebuild, so we put a rebuild in your rebuild so you can rebuild while rebuilding

they just need their josh allen so they can lose every year in the third round too

 

[mighty Stanley Duck]

Peterka is a good player. Shame he wanted to leave. Loss for the Sabres.

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Would Buffalo want pick 4? Not even sure if JJP returns that pick. If he does, isn’t that the opposite of what Sabres want? They need guys who can play now

They can flip the pick, maybe to a team from a certain Island who wants a particular prospect.

Too bad he's a RFA

 

[LegionOfGloom]

Would be surprised if the contingency is who is available at 4 since it's probably 90% likely to be everyone but Schaeffer, Misa, and Frondell.

 

[JasonDemersWasOkay]

Looking forward to this backfiring horribly for Utah

Don't be so vague, who?

I’m guessing 4 for JJP then 4 for Dobson, and Dobson is the holdup? Or if Hagens is there?

yeah and if he doesnt wanna sign he doesnt have to

 

[DJESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Joe, of course

Why would you be looking forward to that?

Yes, I was being facetious.

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

I mean if he wants to lose out on millions of dollars this season and probably a ton of opportunity cost in the future, I guess he could. Seems pretty unlikely in a real world setting.

 

[enthusiast]

Peterka is a good player with some warts that he can still grow out of to become a great player. I’ll miss him but if it’s the 4+ for Peterka+ I’m on board

 

[Canovin]

The contingency is he probably wants to play for the Oilers with Drai

 

[uncleben]

The return could be dicey, but I do love this for Utah

 

[MrLunatik]

Or if a Utah player waives their NTC/NMC?

nah contingency refers to a future plan, a layer not waiving a NTC is immediate

Looking at the Sabres recent trade history I wouldnt be that concerned if I’m a Utah fan rn
