I'm disappointed that Reinhart didn't keep his word and come to camp, but I can't fault him for not coming and risking injury. As I've said many times on CDC, Tanev is not the kind of d-man that Housley wants in his system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was foolish for coming to pre-camp skates and then saying that he would go to camp. That's pretty much killing most of your leverage.

We've got a lot of winger/center prospects in the system. Unless we are throwing away our first rounder they won't move him. Move on. Stop wanting the shiny new toy.

Agreed, but I think he got smart after his agent smacked some sense into him. RFA's in the NHL have almost no leverage to begin with. Holding out, especially after refusing arbitration, is the only way that they can force the issue. The Sabres need to either make him an offer soon or trade him if they want to keep their good-faith bargaining reputation intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sabres already have 3 first round picks in next year's draft so a 4th would likely be overkill. If Housley/Botterill have a liking for OJ, I could see them making a deal. It may take a little more, or someone better, than just Baer to be included though if the Canucks want a 2nd rounder included in the package. It all depends on how much value each GM assigns to the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon Ward Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 17 minutes ago, Silky mitts said: What about oj instead? oj plus bear for Sam and second ? I wouldn't do that. I think long term OJ will be as valuable as Reinhart in this league or more. I also think at this point Bear is worth more to us than a 2nd round pick. We need offense now and he is one of our better options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noble 6 Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I would've been all over this a while ago, but probably not now. Reinhart is more of a RW now, which we don't need. We also have Hughes, who's development could be positively affected by keeping Tanev. I think that's more important than a realistic asset we could get from a Tanev trade (although I would consider something involving a 1st rounder). As @SabreFan1 fan pointed out, they probably aren't that interested in Tanev right now either, although putting him with Dahlin in Buffalo would have a similar affect to putting him with Hughes here.

Their games are not at all similar. Tanev would have little to teach Dahlin other than how to conduct himself as an NHL pro. The Sabres have plenty of overpaid players on the roster already, like Pominville and Okposo, that can teach him that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, Rhino would be a great addition to our club, but shipping out OJ leaves us with exactly 1 potentially elite-core defencemen in Hughes (maybe Woo possibly) if you project our prospects 4-5 years from now. Don't think we can count on the Rathbones/Utunen's/Brassards/ect.. ever being part of the core - if they do then great, but I wouldn't base trades on the hopes they do pan-out.

I wasn't trying to compare Dahlin to Hughes, I was just saying that pairing Tanev with a rookie defenseman would probably help said rookie defenseman out. It's a stability and peace of mind thing. With that said, I don't think the Sabres need that for Dahlin enough to trade for Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanev and Dahlin's games are not at all similar. Hughes on the other hand does have similarities with Dahlin. That's why I'm excited that he's on the Canucks.

JeremyCuddles Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I am just against losing OJ. We need D prospects badly. Woo and Hughes are good additions to OJ, but we can't really afford to lose any of them. We need to add more to that group. Tanev has next to no value right now, he is very one dimensional and those injuries do his value no favors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was trying to say that putting Tanev with a rookie would likely be a good idea since he provides a calming influence and a lot of stability. Dahlin and Hughes were both rookies, so that would apply to both of them in theory. However, Dahlin isn't an ordinary rookie and likely won't need much of that, hence Buffalo won't trade for Tanev.
