Description
!APPOINT MIROSLAV SATAN AS NEW GM! This is not a realistic part as he took on my country's (Slovakia) National team GM job last summer, but I would love to see him succeed in NHL someday..

Not saying current one is bad, I'm just saying that he is great and has NHL GM potential and where else than buffalo right? :) (also.. look at Team Europe's success)

Hasek as Assist. GM. Hasek would get Mrazek mentally together and both of Šarky and Dominator are very well known in positive way in Buffalo. If they can do the work greatly? I don't know.. it is just an idea..

I think Rasmus Asplund is ready for NHL. He is great twoway center with upside on FOs, he can win them all.. If he is not. CJ Smith has it. Then put Mittelstadt as 3C and CJ to 1LW and Asplund down to AHL to play with Nylander who is not ready for NHL, yet!

Smith-Eichel-Reinhart
Olofsson-ROR-Pominville
Milano-Mittelstadt-Okposo
Oregano-Rodrigues-Wilson/Fasching/Baptiste

New "C" is ROR. Alternates.. Eichel, Risto, Pominville (than Sekera/Okposo)

      I dont know for the edmonton trade.
      I think you could get more not much but a bit more for beaulieu. I like the milano trade.
      My isue with the team apart from depth that is lacking is that you have to win the lottery otherwise if you have pick 2,3 or 4 you need to either draft out of position or trade down to secure a dman + boqvist and hughes beind the next best two.
      Also i feel like sam will want either more money or less terms. Like 4.5 for 4 years or 5 for 6. I still think that you would need to trade a package for a good young dman and this draft as a ton of them

      You are right about Reinhart. And BUF is last so I expect them to win lottery. This is atleast scenario where they win. I can do one where they dont win too.
      If not lottery won and they would be 2nd or 3rd they can trade with team that is 5th easily (team on 5th adds another draft pick) and if they end up 4th then they can just draft Boqvist smile
      Edmonton trade.. I have really bad feeling that Bogo would be out for really long time and placed on LTIR by EDM so they would get some cap space and veteran RHD who can still contribute if healthy. Also Sekera has one year more than Bogosian so where new contracts for EDM youngsters (Yamamoto and so on's ELCs end at the same time as Bogo's deal) kick in he would be gone and they would have some more cap. The Lucic deal.. if they can't move it.. it would hurt them in very big way..
      And Beaulieu is bad player and it is miracle Montreal get 3rd for them from Buffalo.. not contributing offensively and also defensively.

      EDM says no way, CBJ says NFW, PHI says oh yes please, SLB will give up a 4th for Beaulieu.
