This is ATROCIOUS

I think you could get Getzlaf for alot cheaper

Thats an insane overpayment, They should add for Risto alone

In a perfect world a younger version of Getzlaf would be our 2C and a great one. This is not a perfect world.

I wouldnt trade thompson for Getzlaf.

Easy guys lol.

Is it an overpay? Absolutely it is. But Getzlaf as a 2C option for the Sabres right now makes a sh1t tonne of sense. Still able to throw up 60 points over a full season with impecable leadership skills in the dressing room.

The package is crazy. Yes it is..... and the Ducks aren't even retaining salary!

I would throw out Bogosian and a conditional pick (1st -3rd depending on what Getzlaf does)....... Ducks get out of the contract a year earlier. Bogosian shores up the blueine a little. Draft pick furthers the rebuild. If you can get the Ducks to retain salary, throw in a prospect..... not named Thompson.

Sabres need a legit veteren leader. No one can argue that. Me thinks Getzlaf is about as good as it can get.

Is this 2011? Why are you giving up so much!?

Lol... I’d trade Tage for Getzlaf’s autograph! Hahaha

That trade is an overpayment for a guy who doesn’t fit our timeline & wouldn’t waive his NMC to come here

Mitts at 2C will be just fine for us
He’ll be good sooner than later

You could probably swap Risto I for a prospect or a 2nd round pick and it might be enough.

Sobadka, Hunwick and a 4th for Getzlaf
