Trade Deadline Thread (March 3)

We’re going to draft 31 players in three years and ice Stillman, Joker and Bryson next year in front of UPL/Comrie

which…last I checked…next year is in this mythical future they’re all about

Make sure we draft all forwards in the first 2-3 rounds because they are the BPA.

We dont need any defensemen.

This isn’t the year to be drafting D. That great draft everyone talks about? It’s all forwards.

Guess there isn’t much long term thinking in their brilliant plan
 
Will Borgen is reportedly available. That would satisfy me because I could be convinced he's a top 4 RD in the future. Skates well, physical, solid defensively and on the pk, teammates love him.

Could be had for less than Chychrun, I'd assume. Get it done, Kev- ahh, nevermind.
 
I get the stay patient mantra. But my god, we have a good prospect pool and 3 2nds along with our 1st for this draft. Use one of those 2nds to make a move. You still have 3 picks in the top 64 and you show the fans and the guys in the room we believe we can make the playoffs. It’s been a f***ing decade. Spend a f***ing 2nd and get the town excited.
 
So basically, since we're not Cup contenders now, there's no point in making the playoffs? Again, it's do nothing or mortgage the future, apparently there's nothing in between, that's weak.
Let's trade a 3rd for JVR. That will put this team over top and into the playoffs. Outside of Chychrun there wasn't anyone worth spending assets on, especially at the prices the top teams were paying.

Serious questions that I would like people to be on the record about so there is no mistaking it later…

If the Sabres are worse next year after another offseason of inactivity and talking about the future…because maybe Dahlin and Tage and Tuch dont repeat career years…or maybe they have more injuries that there is zero excuse to have no depth at all…

if we are worse with this plan…what should happen?

about what ?

He has his plan (I understand many don't agree)

He has told us about it multiply times
About why he felt it unnecessary to try to improve his team using his surplus of 2nds when you’re in the playoff hunt. These kids deserve a bit of juice and push.

I won’t even mention the drought because it’s irrelevant to this front office (and should be)

You should be installed as GM
