But there are those intangibles that a few have mentioned like gutting the locker room that seems to be really close. Robbing them of a chance at playoffs which if you are a player, you’ve worked really hard to get to this spot.
Hard to gauge what kind of lasting impact that could have on the cohesiveness of the group.
Conroy’s in a tough spot when it comes to this. Really tough.
I think I’m on team trade him, but I certainly fluctuate somewhere in the middle (just like the Flames lol)

I think it's a bad move to keep him if the dollar figure is going to be $7.5M + over 8 years. He doesn't do enough offensively IMO to be worthy of that kind of cap allocation. If Craig could work Andersson into some sort of Cozens swap I would be very onboard with that as I think that kid could be a number center in the right situation on a team playing a style that suits him.
I am not sure if the Sabres are willing to part with him for D as the primary return, but its not working in Buffalo so something has to give.
