<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gretzkyghosts</b></div><div>Actually Jeff was a reclaimatino project a few years back and it would have cost the Sabres dearly to move his salary off of the team.
But Tage was never paid a significant salary and anyone who watched him play knew he would eventually find his game.
It would be difficult to find a GM who would give up 2 seconds and another young player for a UFA who has 14 in 29 games.
I assure you at the end of the 20-21 season no one would give up a third for Tage, much less two seconds and even less for Jeff. If Buffalo wanted Bertuzzi, they could just wait for the off season to sign him and keep Asplund and the two seconds.
So one can only presume "I think that guy is just a galaxy brain that we mere mortals can't comprehend" Tjm220 is a bit smarter than those who mock him.
The truth hurts some ears, no sense to waste time discussing matters with people who will not listen.</div></div>

Which includes you.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>leafs101</b></div><div>NSH fans, genuinely want convo and input. I know Leafs likely add but I think this is a good base. I also think this is really the only thing left that could be done to truly put Toronto over the top, so would be curious if it's even a possibility and just how much more would have to be included. I think what would probably end up happening in a Leafs-Saros deal would be that Niemela also has be included.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>leafs101</b></div><div>yea thats really all I was shooting for. I think its a lower end offer but its a strong base if that makes sense. I think maybe a Niemela type prospect also ends up in the mix.

Top goalie deals involving any more than a team's #1 prospect and a 1st are rare though. Granted trading a goalie of Saros' calibre is also rare.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bluspy88</b></div><div>Honestly not a horrible starting point as you've acknowledged, and you deserve credit for not absolutely low balling. I would have to think the Predators would want more as we've said. If I was them, I'm looking at 1.) Young forwards (their offense is ROUGH) 2.) Young D and 3.) NHL goalie to fill until they bring up Askarov/back him up.</div></div>

A good comparison I like to make is the Horvat deal. While he is a forward (two different positions) you gotta think we could net a similar return. Horvat got a blue chip prospect, a 1st, and a young roster player. Top end player, top end goalie. Different condiments, same sandwich.

If I'm moving a Vezina caliber goalie under a team friendly deal for the next 3 seasons, I'm asking for no less. The deal would have to really entice me to consider moving him.
But like I said, Knies and a 1st is a good conversation starter but it would likely cost more.
