Quoting: JokiStan
I'd prefer to just keep Bjork honestly. As for the trade, it's alright I guess. Strome doesn't fit our timeline but I guess we can flip him for other assets. I'd kind of want one other piece like Kurashev but I've seen a lot worse
Quoting: Stan_Bowman
Strome is included under the premise you flip him for assets at the deadline.
As a Sabre fan, I just may want to simplify this trade:
Kane, Patrick ($5,250,000 retained)
Zadorov, Nikita [RFA Rights]
Reichel, Lukas
2021 1st round pick (CHI)
for
Eichel, Jack
A locker room leader
Buffalo gets a physical LHD.
Average LW prospect
12th OA pick
Skinner Reinhart Kane
Olofsson Cozens Quinn
Asplund Mittelstadt Thompson
Girgensons Ruotsalainen Bjork
Dahlin Borgen
Zadorov Ristolainen
Bryson Jokiharju
EDIT: let me add, if this did not work, Kane would be return a boatload if Buffalo retained another 50%.
Probably 2 firsts and two good prospects for that cap hit.
