I have no idea how this would happen without the name Boeser. I would never forgive that.
Can anyone suggest a way?
Ah, look at the source, probably bull poop, right?
Yes, probably poop.

But they say Ristolainen does not deserve/cannot handle all the icetime the Sabres give him.

So I don't think he would be ridiculously expensive (no Boeser necessary)

Tanev + 7th overall + ?? probably gets it done.

Pair him with Juolevi and we have a nice pair of Fins.

You are very optimistic. I like that. :D

I was fairly well aware our Vancouver Canucks, this time around, would be involved in many rumors.
Fun fun, fun.

Sure as hell aint gonna end after this weekend either. Hold on to your butts. :shock: they could do "almost" anything.
I sense a little pushing from above.
Remember how crazy our beloved owner can be; :mrgreen:

Pardon me, but if Hanafin is only the #4 guy on Carolina, why do we want him so badly? Even if he would be our #1 guy, we'd still have a shitty defense. Keep the pick and hope we draft a real top 2 D-man. If we trade for Hanafin, we will be over-paying, and pushing our re-build back farther.
Maybe because he just turned 21 in January. I think it's safe to assume his minutes climb as he gains experience.

If the player we draft at 7 is leading our D in scoring at 21, as Hanifin did, we'll be quite pleased indeed. Which is why I would do the 7th overall for him, but nothing more (and I assume they'll want more). I'm perfectly happy to use the pick.
If the guy we draft at 7 this year is leading us in scoring in 3 years, we will be in REAL trouble for decades more to come.
:lol:, with how shitty our D is, the bar is not set very high.

Leading the D scoring. Not leading scorer.

I’m saying yuck to Goutman thinking Tanev + 7 for RR is a good deal.

Micky thought my offer for 23-year-old 26-minutes-per-game Ristolainen was way too low.

You think it's way too high.

There are reasons they call yours truly "The Great Strangelove"...
