<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Giga_Adams</b></div><div>Trolling about what? Moving skinner is a must. He will not last under Lindy Ruff. Moving Byram to a place where he will be a number 1 (that’s why he wanted out of col). Getting Anderson will cost a lot. Buffalo Fans overvalue their prospects majorly there is no more room in the Top 6 in Buffalo for the next 6-8 years. Have to unload to release the log jam. Signed two puck retrievers and heavy bodies. Joki is gone as well, he will want to much money. Dahlin needs a real partner and to play his strong side.

While this may not be spot on it’s real in what it will take to get these players. Frost is a textbook 3rd liner that needs a change. Getting skinner to wave his NMC is needed in order to sign &gt; Benson, Tuch, Quinn, Peterka, Levi, Greenway.</div></div>
Skinner isn’t going to agree to be traded anywhere. So that’s kind of a moot point. Byram was just acquired, and they have no reason to want to move him. Andersson should never cost that much, and if he does he should be collecting Norris trophies. Last time I checked, he doesn’t have any. Not to mention he’s not exactly going to be winning any in the near future. That kind of trade is the cost you expect to pay for Makar if he were ever available. I could deal with the Frost trade if Buffalo weren’t already loaded with young centers. The other trades just don’t make any real sense.

Buffalo has time before they have to worry about resigning most of the players you mentioned. Greenway probably doesn’t get a raise on his next contract. Tuch will, but he may accept less money to stay here than he would get elsewhere, because why would he want to leave? Quinn and Peterka will be getting new deals at the end of next season, but if Quinn isn’t healthy next year, he’s not getting very much. The cap is also going to go up so there will be more money available when some of the cheaper contracts expire.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>VGKNation702</b></div><div>I’ve heard this every season on this site lol. Good players have a market. Teams don’t care about “helping Vegas”. If it’s a player they think is better for their team a bidding war starts. Patches hasn’t been anything since he left, as well as coghlan. Let’s talk about how Smith fetched a 3rd or Haula for Roy. What about Gusev for a 2nd and 3rd lol</div></div>
Well, Vegas has also been burned on more than a couple deals. But who hasn’t? What I find impressive is that Brendan Brisson is the first 1st round prospect that they haven’t traded away. I don’t know who else among their prospect Pool is ready to be promoted. It doesn’t look like you have much left that is NHL ready right now.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CoachCoach</b></div><div>That is fine, in my opinion this is the difference between a guy like Roy and a guy like Fabbri. Fabs is a good player, FO% is great, nearly 20 goals, compete.....but has the injury history (non-existent this year) and is deemed a "dump." Meanwhile his contact is fine as most players this off-season will be overpaid and for long term, whereas he is only sitting at 4M (or 2 if retention) for just next season, limiting the risk. If he gets hurt again, LTIR.

Roy on the other hand is a bargain at 3M, and is secure at that hit for more than one season. That value far exceeds what will be comparably found in FA. In THIS situation, I don't care if it helps Vegas because it ultimately benefits me (speaking as that team).</div></div>
I just don’t expect teams to get into a bidding war over Vegas’s players. They may put up offers, but I don’t think they’ll be eager to beat one another and raise the price. Unless they see that guy as a must have, I just don’t see it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>VGKNation702</b></div><div>Roy makes 3. Plays up and down the lineup. Plus we’d get better offers</div></div>
You’ll have to hope for a bidding war for his services. Personally, I hope no one wants to help you. And frankly, there’s no reason they should. Everyone knows eventually if no one offers anything you like it will force your hand. Kind of like when you had to include Coghlan with Pacioretty to move that contract, and got basically nothing back. The trouble you have is that most teams in the league don’t exactly have a lot of money lying around, and most would need a cash in and cash out kind of deal. I think you may be disappointed with what you actually get back in return for Roy, and what else they will have to do to be cap compliant for next season.
