I don't see the reason to trade Comtois for Olofsson, rebuilding teams don't trade away young players for older ones.

Yes, Olofsson is much better at scoring points, but we're fine using Max as a 3rd line player.

I get the logic. But vic is 27, max is 24, Not crazy different. Vic bring a much needed goal scoring touch and max brings a bigger body. Feels good for both sides

Yes it's time for Chychrun.
That being said, I'd rather keep the 2 and 3, add Olofsson to the Chychrun deal, and call up Kulich.
Also, that 3rd pair better play like 8 mins a night because WOOF.

Why do you guys want Olofsson out of town so badly, seems like half the Buffalo ACGM's are trading him?

That's a good question. I'll take a poke. Olofsson is a fantastic shooter, but it's a bit of a numbers game in buffalo right now. Our coach has pretty much settled on his top 6- Thompson with Skinner and tuch, and cozens with Quinn and peterka. Those lines have mostly been producing, although the cozens line has cooled recently. That leaves olofsson playing with mittelstadt and (currently) jost. Mittelstadt is not one of my favorites, doesn't do much of anything well, and is a danger for a minus every time he goes over the boards as a center. Granato seems determined to rehabilitate Mittelstadt, which has been a fruitless endeavor. The line has looked a little better with jost playing the middle, but the results aren't there yet. The Sabres have 4 first round pick forwards coming, and possibly another from this draft, so olofsson (and a few other forwards for that matter) are really gonna have to produce to keep their spot. If you can steal him and put him with a decent two-way center that knows how to pass, you'll be very happy with him.

The Anaheim trade is interesting
It’s a “maybe” imo

The Chychrun trade is a bad idea though
He’s not good on the right side
Just isn’t a good fit
Plus it would be hard to pay Dahlin, Power and him all big $$$

Agreed on the chychrun trade. I wanted it but after posting this and thinking about it there could be alot better done with that tyoe of package imo

Very well put, just not alot of room for vic on our team with top 6 solidifed and younsters on the way

agreed on third pair, has to improve

Just no room. Hes not a third line type player. And sabres top 6 is all but locked up long term. Not to mention rookies otw like kulich rosen and savoie. Just not alot of room for vic and mitts moving forward

Chychrun is a good player
I wanted us to draft him

He’s just not a good fit for us though,
so we should look elsewhere imo
