When was Marino traded?

There are two main windows for player movement in the NHL:

The 3-4 weeks that is the week leading up to the draft through mid-July

The 3-4 weeks prior to the trade deadline

Outside those two windows, trades become rare and it is a lot harder to find a trade partner.

Since opening night, there have been a total of 5 trades involving NHLers. And one of them involved future considerations.

You can pitch a fit all you want, but that doesn't make other GMs willing to make trades that improve the Sabres right away.
How many of these trade windows have come and gone under Adams where we’ve needed a top 4rhd? Pretty sure he’s 8 for 8 on missing the window

What do you think is our biggest need in terms of our forwards are? Other than players that are underperforming. If you want, name an attainable player and where you think he would fit into our lineup.
We need playmaker, maybe some physical mid-six player, considering we only have Greenway and he's injured. I like Zegras (playmaker) as a potential 2C option. And Trent Frederic for a physical mid-six forward.

Agreed.

But Dahlin has been a top 5 dman the last few years (arguably), and he hasn’t been this year. Injury, weight of the C, whatever, he’s been a bit “off.”
Dahlin has been on a roll and has 10 points in his last 7 games....you could easily argue for him to be in the top 5 for this year considering he's right there.

If this team wants to make the playoffs we need 2nd line center and a stay at home defenseman who is physical that can pair with Dahlin.

This team isn't making the playoffs with the guys playing now. It doesn't matter what window is open or closed I give Adams about a 2% chance of pulling it off.

I agree about 2C, but I'm not sure about a partner for Dahlin, I mean ideally of course, but I think they look good with Byram in the first pair, although in some games it will bite us. But we need a partner for Power here and now. I think it will be difficult to get to the playoffs with the current roster.

Not the guy I'm thinking about. Western Conference. Guaranteed to start shit among the fans if they trade for him.
But who is this?

Close.

Right team, wrong center.
"Guaranteed to start shit among fans" = ROR

(NotABadPeriod first to reportl

Exactly.

Nah, it's Cody Eakin, he's secretly signed with someone obviously.

(Wasn't even thinking about Nashville, but ROR certainly fits the bill...)

It's the shit it would start with fans. But a 2C who would push Cozens to wing to figure himself out? Yeah.
