Ossi Vaananen Posted December 31, 2019 Author Share Posted December 31, 2019 For real though, let's just swap Baertschi for any of these guys on expiring contracts. Save the entirety of his cap hit next year so Gaud/Virt can get raises. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostsOf1994 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 But... but...but.. Sabresfan1 says buffalo is fantastic and very lovely. Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian and now Evan Rodriguez. Must be issues with those guys and the great nightlife and beautiful women and booze and travel and.... I ran out of excuses, buffalo sucks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have fun! At least Buffalo is within a drive to New York, and other cool cities. Edmonton is close to Calgary. I guess Okatokes isn’t too bad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBackup Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Winnipeg, Detroit, St Louis etc are by most metrics a worse place to live than Buffalo, and we aren't seeing a mass amount of players requesting trades from there. I still think there's something in the water there hasn't been addressed. Let's not jump to blaming the city. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgary as much as I love to crap on it isn't that bad. Its in many ways a poor man's Vancouver. Edmonton is a tossup. The point is more goes into making a city a nice place to live than how cold it gets in the winter.

That’s why the easterners who can afford it, retire out here. I doubt those with the means retire in .bufallo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well NHL players aren't geriatrics, so I don't think it has as much as an impact there as you do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I could be an NHL player, but after Montreal I’d say Edmonton might be the next best city to be a player. But, that’s me. I think the last time NHL players were polled, Edmonton and Buffalo were on the bottom of the list as destinations to play. Winnipeg was the only city that was worse, according to the NHL players.

Elias Pettersson Posted January 1, 2020 Share Posted January 1, 2020 So a guy who went undrafted and has zero goals this year is demanding a trade. Why not just send him to the minors where he belongs? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markets where you can't leave your house without getting swarmed are super appealing to some players and a nightmare to others. And the biggest factor in Edmonton and Buffalo being at the bottom of the list is how bad those teams have been over the course of the last decade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
