Cripes…Cozens, Rosen and a first!?! No wonder you want a rebuild if it was only that was that easy.
I don’t think you get Cozens one for one

Lol you just really don’t like Cozens then, got it. I’d take Cozens one for one for Lindholm over Rosen and a 1st. Markstrom getting Cozens in the deal is pretty wild imo.

Cozens, Rosen and and the 13th overall is so bonkers into absurd land that it's not even worth discussing. Just pure insanity that has nothing to do with reality. Crazy talk.

Buffalo won't trade us Cozens for Lindholm straight up, lol. I appreciate there's some fan fiction to message board trade proposals, but it MUST be better than that. It must be, or else we're just saying ****.

Buffalo won't trade Cozens one for one for even an extended Lindholm. Markstrom getting the equivalent of 2 first rounders plus Comrie is insane. I'd love it for the Flames if that did happen though.

Dude, I'm typing less than I want to in this response but your Cozens proposals is pants on head stupid. I'm sorry for that. You want triple the return of the return that 99% wouldn't happen (1 for 1 Lindholm for Cozens). Like come the **** on, no offence. You're in LA LA land.

Simple answer is GreenLantern does not like Cozens. He has it as Lindholm = Rosen + 1st and then Markstrom gets Cozens added in the deal for salary lol.

Skinner then.

Everything I know about the Sabres. I learned in the last half an hour don’t hold me to any particular proposal. All I want is more high pics and recent first rounders Rosen looked intriguing last year and he seems to be developing well. I’m more interested in him on the flames next year than anyone off Buffalo’s roster they might include to make this happen.

That is 100% the worst homer trade proposal I've seen in the last 5 years on this board...and we're talking about a message board that was group thinking a package of Lindholm for the 3OA from Columbus in which posters were pulling other posters back saying "NO NO NO, if we're giving THAT for 3OA then Columbus better be sending their other 1st rounder back to balance!!!!".

So......maybe start your proposal without a player that Buffalo wouldn't trade one for one for Lindholm, then?

Never lead with your best offer.

What about:

Skinner - $3M retained for 1 year $1M retained final 3 years (can you even do that?)
Rosen
1st


Lindholm w/extension.
Markstrom

Why are we lowering Lindholm's trade value by attacking Markstrom to him?

And with Levi and UPL do the Sabres even want Markstrom?

You never know - Buffalo might trade Cozens one for one for Lindholm - he couldn’t crack 70 points in the highest scoring season in 20 years, and he’s a tire fire defensively.

If it’s just a straight swap, and I’m sitting on $14M in cap space, it’s not inconceivable.

The only thing Cozens has on Lindholm is age.

Thanks, I love a lot of those old words. It's therapeutic to toss Balderdash into a sentence.

I think a Lindholm trade with Buffalo would involve a combination of Krebs, Peterka, and 1st.

On what basis is Cozens a tire fire defensively?

I haven't seen a ton of Buffalo games so it may be the case but he was always fine defensively in junior so it would be odd if he turned into a tire fire at the NHL level.
