I pray sj resigns him…. Please Grier stop the bleed!
ooo-h.. holtz to san jose is interesting playing with eklund
with the cap being what it is, buffalo is setup to be contenders for both Meier and Chycryn
It's amazing how fast Kulich has risen. He's now the major trade piece in every Buffalo trade rumor out there lol. I am not one to put much stock in the World Juniors but something tells me he's going to be a gem in the NHL and is a non starter for Kevyn Adams. Would love to have Meier but Buffalo needs to be careful adding too many big contracts too soon. They got Cozens coming up this summer too.
Sportsnet paying for Texan clickbait now
Why does the Leafs need to give up so little compared to other teams?
I don’t like the Sabres trade idea from San Jose perspective. I’d want Jack Quinn back. I also want a first round pick and a B level prospect.
Timo to Carolina, please and thank you.
Buffalo dosen’t need him
Meier to Sabres? I could see that happening, but Sabres won't give Joker and certainly not Kulich. Not only the priority of the Sabres is to add a dman but one who is a LHD one, so they would need to make another trade if they trade Joker to get Benning. Also Kulich I think is untouchable. He is their best forward prospect. I could see them moving Savoie or Ostlund, but not Kulich.
I'm all for getting rid of Bailey but Jesus that's a huge overpay!
San Jose isn't retaining any percent on Timo's contract to Leafs hahaha
Toronto isn't gonna give up Kies, not saying the trade makes no sense just that it won't happen. I feel like they will shed cap somewhere else with jerfoot and bring I'm Duclair. Cause to give up knies for a rental would be to stupid. Especially cause they are gonna need good players on cheap contract and elcs for a couple years and they have that in spades rn
I'd be really p*ssed if the Sabres made your trade. Meier isn't McDavid.
NJ would be fun!
Any Meier trade starts with either your first or second best prospect, an unprotected 2023 1st… then you're gonna have to throw in extras like a solid NHL player, another prospect or two and maybe even a 2nd or 3rd from the next two drafts.
If your a team like the Devils, Carolina or Buffalo you can't try to nickel and dime the sharks in the trade. You gotta bite the bullet. Making this trade could take your team from a good playoff team to a great one that opens your cup window for the next few years.
All overpayment
The leafs need him in the worst way.
Ha! No way I'd take Meier for that as NJ especially for a RFA next season.
Meier isn’t re signing in markets like Minnesota or Buffalo lol. I can see him re signing in New Jersey or New York or Toronto
No way in hell the Sabres are giving away Kulich and Joki. To Buffalo Meier & 3rd round pick for Victor Oloffson Isak Rosen Prospects Either Erik Portillo or Noah Ostlund and a 2023rd 2nd rd pick . Jacob Chykrun to Buffalo for Casey Mittlestat Prospect Ryan Johnson , and also as well Erik portillo and or Noah Ostlund as well as a 2025 1st rd pick
Devils can get him without retain.
“The Sabres need help on defense so they’re going to trade a 2nd pair defenseman for a 3rd pair level defenseman” logic.
Is there any value in Robertson?
Video works on 1.5x speed if you're in a hurry
Only way NJD will give Yegor in a 3 men deal is getting 2 men back. in general every trade got too many men for 1. not going to happen.
Outland, mittlestadt, top 5 protected 1st from buffalo for Meier
Do the Sabres want to pay him 10 million per season? Nah, Thompson only makes 7.1 mill for 7 years.
I want him on the leafs so badly, he’d be such a great fit.
As for the package, I think you are bang on. Maybe it gets outbid but I think Knies would be the guy the sharks would be wanting as he could potentially replace Timo in years to come (he won’t be quite as good but he should become a top 6 power forward)
No to the Buffalo trade
Toronto can't afford what they have now devils have A LOT of prospects and 36 million next year hischier and Meier are best friends
I’d definitely agree that leafs have to go for Meier. Send them Knies, Kerfoot and Robertson
The Devs don’t have many big, strong puck carriers on the team. Meier is exactly the kind of player they need.
This would be my initial mock trade
To SJ; Mittlestadt, ‘23 1st rounder and ‘23 2nd rounder or I.Rosen.
To BU; T.Meier.
As a Dev fan – if it’s Holtz Shari and Bahl plus the 1St… game on. Very fair for both teams and I don’t think that can be matched. As long as Fitz can talk signing him long term now (hoping he’s doing it now) game on. We need his size up front.
It's interesting you make the trade proposal you did for the Isles because the only piece in that package touched in the Horvat trade was the 2023 1st. Instead, it could be a future 1st. I am also surprised that Nemec has not been brought up in Timo Meier mock trades with New Jersey. Buffalo is an interesting fit. Not sure how committed they are to make a blockbuster like this, but maybe they do it.
However, the Rangers are a major omission. I would be surprised if the Rangers didn't come out of this deadline with either Kane or Meier.
