Both Flower and Letang are not probable but to say unrealistic is a bit of a stretch IMO. They are older players and could want to get one last big payday before they retire. They’ve won cups and also many teams that would like to sign them can’t afford them bc of salary cap concerns.

I waffled back and forth with Girgs and Vinny. You may be right on this point

I like what buffalo has done but they aren’t there yet. Even with the new adds.</div></div>

It’s not sarcasm at all. Last 23 games, since March 1st they are 12-8-3 which is 97 point pace. Alot has to happen but I really like this team now but especially moving forward!! I know alot has to happen but isn’t the NHL the most random league in the world?? It could happen

Very true point. I just think we want and will at least a nice top 6 forward not just to get better but too alleviate the cap floor

I don’t disagree in the slightest. A veteran defenseman who’s proven and fits our system. Doesn’t have to be Dumba but a player of that caliber who will come to Buffalo

Thread: Why not

Oilers might say no, but they may hold Risto in high regard just like alot of teams do.

I know teams don't do offer sheets anymore. However, someone is going to offer sheet marner, and when that happens, other teams might do it too. This is an exercise in why not. Right?

Bold ideas, but I think we could and should try for Willy Nylander

love that you got oloffson skating with eichel and skinner. That would be amazing

Thread: call ups and wings trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonnymc26</b></div><div>i have been finding rodriguez really spotty in the d zone (play seems slappy and rushed, not controlling a breakout well), he has played well on 4th line duty with pomm and ziggy thus far tho. burgland has been taking heavy brunt of d zone starts and getting tuffer match ups so his numbers and play might look worse but his play is more valuable.</div></div>

Good analysis, and very spot on. My eyes see talent and a helpful forward, but your stats and analytics are a good point

Just move up oloffson and or Nylander. Better than giving up draft capital. Tim Murray days are over

Evan Rodriguez is in there, but looks real good. I think Berglund is waive candidate, if possible

Thread: Legitimacy

Colorado did it, and imho, we have a legitimate top 6, a great back line player in Dahlin, plus Risto. Also, Carter Hutton who is a solid goalie. 40 wins is a very doable. Maybe even 45 wins

I think the exchange of talent is fair, I do not think we will see Hamilton, the tickets are toooo expensive
I think you can get more for Ristolainen.
I think the other trades a good as well,</div></div>

I think the Oilers value Puljajarvi alot, and I'm not sure EDM would give up more. You may be right though!
Thx for looking!
