grumpyone Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 out of the box thinking here trade a 6th to Winnipeg for Dustin Buffelin as long as he's in physical shape to play he brings a very rough and tumble attitude to our lines. low cost - high reward if he's willing to actually play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Low cost? He's a $7.6M cap hit for one more year. How's that going to work? I can't see them wanting to take LE back to balance out the salary. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget where I heard it on... maybe Tim and Sid or the TSN show Noodles and O Dog are on... they said he's been fishing all year and he's actually well over 300lbs if you see him . So yea pass. The guy clearly was battling depression and that's why he had to step away from the rink. He got tired of playing the character he was on the ice, big bad buff and just wants to be away from the game to regain his mental health stability. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone will take a chance on him at 7.6 million. He's been fighting injuries for 2 seasons and now is likely taking a full year off. Players usually don't bounce back that quickly at his age from having a full year of downtime. Figure, there's a 80% chance that if you bring him in, you have a 7.6 million, unmovable boat anchor, tying up your cap space. If you think Eriksson is hard to move, there're a LOT of potential there for an even bigger problem. We are better off signing Tryamkin for physical presence. We know what he can do, and he's only 25 years old and has been playing 20+ minutes a night in the 2nd best league in the world. In terms of NHL ready, he slots in ahead of anyone else we have in Utica, Junior or College. I'm not saying he's the highest ceiling, only that he's our most NHL ready D, not in the NHL.He's already proven 3 years ago that he's NHL ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeremyCuddles Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 No thank you. Guy hasn't played all season and there is no indication he is even working out or staying in game shape. On top of his massive cap hit? Hard pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnuckleHead16 Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 I’d absolutely love to have BUFF and Simmonds for playoff push! That would be absolutely SICK! Imagine that!

King Heffy Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 They'll be mutually terminating the contract. Buff will need some time to work off the double cheeseburgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
