Trading JJ would be a terrible, terrible idea. Kid is right on the cusp of breaking out huge for us.I'd much prefer to give up Peterka than Krebs. I do agree that they will likely want a roster player.

I know it was sarcasm and Carolina HF disagrees but VO is pretty much what they need. Boost the PP and add depth scoring threat. They don't need a defensive forward.I seriously doubt that is the case.
Ekholm had more team control and he came with the TDL premium added in.
When it comes to a player with any sort of real trade value, fans tend to overvalue what their player will return.
If they want an NHL winger with Pesce-esque value, then Adams offers up VO.
My go to lately has been AFP Analytics, they made their contract projections available to the public, and so far seem to be a bit closer on some of these extensions.
In this case both EH and AFP both have Pesce getting 6y x $6.3M.

I saw it. I thought that most Carolina fans were very reasonable in that thread.Earlier in the thread on the trade board, I forwarded the 1st, Rosen, and D idea and it was received well. Then the thread evolved away from that idea towards Peterka. But the original trade idea was received well enough to make the trade.
I just do not see Pesce having that much value in the trade market with one year to UFA. We shall see.Ekholm had more term and Pesce is younger. I evened those two out since they offset value.
If Mayfield can be signed 6 years x 5 million, I'd rather do that than trade for Pesce. I think we would have to outbid a team like Edmonton who may offer something ridiculous to try and win a cup next season.
I think there was an article linked a week or so ago that said Carolina wanted to keep it to 4 years. I couldn’t find it with a quick search but I thought I remembered something to that extent.Thanks! Gotta think Carolina would give him that. My guess is we are looking at an AAV closer to 8 if he signs outside of Carolina.
I think it hinges on who Buffalo takes at 13. If it's a defenceman (Simashev/Willander) it might impact how much term you want to give a No. 4 dman. Maybe only 3-4 years because in 3 years you'd have a kid ready to take that same spot.
If you give Pesce long term... it shouldn't have NMC.
I hope that pick 13 has everything to do with extending a top 4 D - because it's the most obvious asset to use to acquire said top 4 D.I would very much hope that if we keep 13, it has nothing to do with how long of a contract we give to a potential top 4 D. You can't count on that pick hitting.
Well, to be fair (Letterkenny voice), Kev did mention in the trade deadline press conference that teams were asking for Savoie and Kulich, who he wasn’t interested in giving up. So, it might be us, other teams, AND the Sabres that value Ostlund a little less.Ostlund has the out of sight, out of mind thing for Sabres fans. I’ve got a feeling the organization values him more than most fans do.

You need someone to trade and we have a lot of prospects. I like Ostlund, but if I need to get Pesce, I pull the trigger.Ostlund has the out of sight, out of mind thing for Sabres fans. I’ve got a feeling the organization values him more than most fans do.
I can see Brindamour lighting a fire under VO and him outperforming expectationsI know it was sarcasm and Carolina HF disagrees but VO is pretty much what they need. Boost the PP and add depth scoring threat. They don't need a defensive forward.

this might screw up the Pesce deal for Carolina .....
and now all is better I guess
