Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

LA - value is all over the map for Roy, but Olofsson and Iafallo would have *similar* values on the open market, with a decent edge to Iafallo. The fit is perfect though, the Kings are stacked with 2 way forwards and are seriously lacking scoring. The Sabres have a ton of young talented players, but really only Tuch plays a hard two way game on the wing in the future core. IMO the value of the 16th pick covers the difference in value between VO and AI and the 2nd and Roy. I think LA will say it's not enough, and BUF fans will say it's too much.
* Buffalo signs and trades olofsson 3x$4.5 and retains $1mill

Bob is still a very good goalie. That contract is just atrocious. Florida clears 13.8 mill this year to fix their team this year, and 6 mill for the following 3 years to get ahead of Huberdeau/Weegar extensions and new deal for Knight. I've seen Gudas going for a 2nd or a 3rd (often to Buffalo), and Hornqvist going between a 4th or later and FLA paying to get rid of him - so call it a 4th (even though the Sabres will get more than that for flipping him). The Sabres get their stop gap in goal, and can buy him out in 2 years to save 2 mill if UPL/Levi/Portillo are ready to take over.

<strong>Assuming Bob waives</strong> even though there's basically no chance he would.

I think if we bought him out after 2 years, he would count against the cap ~ $4 mill (~2.6 for Florida) in year 3 and 4, and 1 mill (600k) for the next 2 years
