Not that lmao

They aren't retaining that much for that long

They could always retain 9m by keeping skinner...

Toronto says no. Not in the market for a trade like this.

If they're retaining that I imagine they'd give you 2 2nds at best to take him. You could argue he's worth almost 4.5

BUF would be better off by just buying him out. Granted they'd be paying until 2035 or something but even that's better than losing several first round picks and retaining half of that salary

No thx

Skinner at 4.5 and three firsts including a top 10? Every team takes that

I would take a very hard look at this trade.

No to all of this.

I think currently we are trying to make him quit hockey. Theres no world where we retain 4.5 million for 7 years, let alone adding 3 firsts to do it. I genuinely dont think the pegulas are going to pay anybody else to not work for them, so i dont see a buyout either.

I get that but he doesn’t play centre. Matthews has a nagging wrist injury and we can’t really afford to move a centre. Not to mention that we aren’t looking for 1sts.

Granted that we could flip the entire package for something very ueeful as this is a massive overpay but as it sits between the two teams it makes no sense either way.

no no no no no not even with half retention do I want him

horrible for buffalo
