Would be huge for Buffalo. Hoping to see them on a run in the playoffs too. Their fans deserve some success

That would be bonkers. Good target for Buffalo and a big swing by Kekalainen.

Buffalo and Utah are going to make the biggest TDL splashes I think. Both are bidding to Thomas (and have the assets and urgency)

He isn't afraid to take a risk, based on previous history. Other major sporting leagues have way more fun trade exchanges.

"Buyer's market"... right

The bubble playoff teams are active. The whole central is about to get armed. TB is not going to sit back. This is not a buyer's market.

Yeah, I was shocked at how nasty St. Louis was actually, thought it would be nicer than it was. Buffalo is pretty nasty but Thomas being from southern Ontario would probably have him fairly comfortable with the region.

Thomas is from Aurora, Ontario. About a three hour drive from Buffalo.

The buying teams dropping hints that it is a buyer's market. The sellers are doing the opposite.
