RJCF96 Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Horrible trade for Buffalo. I hate this trade so much. Potentially giving a top 6 dynamic forward in the next 2-3 seasons on an ELC. Horrible trade all around. Why the fuck does the Sabres have to screw themselves and us with one move?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all these points but your concern lies with the wrong team in this seemingly one sided transaction. Unless you’re from Buffalo. Last time I looked they don’t play in the Pacific Division and the Oilers do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am mad because they gave the Oilers, our biggest division rivals a potential top 6 forward on ELC for the next 2-3 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantomex Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Top end prospect and a cap dump for the Coilers... Not sure if it's enough to get Broberg and Holloway signed... Guess it depends if Kane really is going on LTIR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bet you felt real smart when you made the comment too. if choosing to acknowledge that there are other possibilities besides a bunch of internet randoms with absolutely zero first, second, or even third hand knowledge of the situation somehow having a better read of things than the highly paid executives that run the NHL club in question makes me smart, so be it I guess. that seems like a pretty low bar to me though.

Acknowledging there are things, but being uppity about it and claiming people that think Buffalo didn't get enough as not knowing anything is pretentious. Buffalo very well could have just bungled the trade. I think you're not acknowledging that possibility either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
