Speculation: Roster Building Thread: Part LXVI

[Fitzy]

Hey now Buffalo is an... affordable city.

but I’m as stumped as the rest of you.

 

[Alluckks]

Hall to Buffalo on a short expensive deal makes sense.

He is guaranteed to be fed a bunch of points and able to cash in on a 7 year deal in a year or two, and for Buffalo they needed to make a huge splash for Eichel.

 

[17futurecap]

Wonder if they offered him something like 2 for 24 or 3 for 36.

 

[rangers1314]

The Bruins must be flabbergasted.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

Everyone is flabbergasted.

Fixed

Hey now Buffalo is an... affordable city.

It’s a very weird market tout there right now.

Probably figures this is a chance to play with some elite talent and have a strong result before giving it another go.

Nothing will ensure Eichel's happiness like signing Hall and winning the draft lottery next year. #chess

[Oscar Lindberg]

Obvious Hail Mary move by Buffalo to appease Eichel

“Please Jack, just give us more time”

 

[bleedblue94]

10 mil 1 year deal in buff?

A fat one or two year contract to suffer in buffalo

 

[NYR94]

Hall is a fan of Sabres head coach Krueger. Played for him in Edmonton.

 

[Salvage21]

I think we need to get some black market Prozac here on the double.

HAHA I really appreciated THAT comment more than anything else you’ve (generously) contributed

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Hall is a certified loser.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

That’s just heroin

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

Hall is a certified loser.

Oh absolutely

dude is never going to win a thing

 

[TominNC]

Are we going to keep DeAngelo and if so, will he play as a LD? I'm worried about or depth (or lack thereof) on LD. Lindgren, Smith, Hajek and Johnson... Johnson will probably get too much ice-time as it stands. Being a veteran and such...

Who's playing RD is ADA goes to LD?

 

[rangers1314]

Hall and Petro are settled.

You’d think the trade market picks up now.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

I mean we need a 2C and Roslovic is a young guy, but I'm preparing myself to be disappointed...again.

Roslovic: 2c
Monahan: 3c

Fantastic deal for Buffalo! Give eichel a top tier winger. Only one year deal. Can trade at the deadline for more assets.

 

[Raspewtin]

seriously?

 

[17futurecap]

If they stink, they can get a first round pick for him at the deadline, nice job by Buffalo.

 

[Leetch3]

 

[Thirty One]

If Hall gets a full no-trade and can pick his destination at the deadline, I can see the value in that. But Buffalo would be motivated to keep him through the season as they're trying to sell themselves to Eichel.

 

[LiveLongandProspal]

With the acquisition of Schmidt, can Florida still afford to re-sign Weegar?
