Yaremchuk: “Talking of younger names, Frank, that’s type of the place I wish to go on the contemporary aspect of the commerce targets listing. A handful of actually fascinating gamers. The one that actually stood out to me is JJ Peterka although in Buffalo. 17 targets in 55 video games this yr. Frank, he was virtually a 30-goal man final yr. Why does Buffalo wish to do away with him?”
Seravalli: “Properly, they don’t, is the reply. I don’t envy Kevin Adams in any respect. Take into consideration the names that we’ve mentioned thus far this yr: Dylan Cozens, Alex Tuch, undergo their listing, Bowen Byram in our high 10. This has been an actual powerful yr for the Sabres.
Three of the Biggest NHL Trade Deadline Moves in History
However you then’ve obtained JJ Peterka, and he’s a bona fide first-line participant. He’s 23 years outdated, and he’s somebody that I believe is simply starting to scratch the floor. That mentioned he’s due a giant new contract. And I’d be actual curious to take the temperature of all of the gamers in Buffalo, not simply Peterka. How intrigued, how are you in staying with the final place staff within the East?
So okay, you say, effectively, that’s nice, however he doesn’t actually have a selection. He’s an RFA, not a UFA, and also you’re appropriate, besides we talked that that is going to be the summer time of supply sheets, proper? So he doesn’t signal, finally ends up being a proposal sheet goal, and abruptly, RFAs have an entire new lever to drag of their arsenal that actually not many pulled earlier than.
It’s not a brand new one, but it surely’s contemporary, as a result of we’ve seen two gamers transact very just lately, and I believe that must be an enormous concern for the Buffalo Sabre. So I’m advised, and sources point out that various groups have been calling the Buffalo Sabres and asking about J.J. Peterka. The Sabres have mentioned, we’re not all in favour of buying and selling him. Nonetheless, I believe that dialog goes to evolve, which is why he’s on my commerce goal.”

Yaremchuk: “Lukas Reichel was the man who I learn his title and was like, whoa. Why are they open to buying and selling him? He was a first-round decide not that way back. After which I regarded, I used to be like, oh, first first-round decide in 2020, that was 5 years in the past. As loopy sufficient as that sounds. In order that one, yeah, that one makes a little bit of sense.
The opposite title, Frank, Mario Ferraro, 26 years outdated. Price management that $3.25 million this yr and subsequent, and a man who excels in his personal finish. It’s like, yeah, I can see a variety of contending groups going, ohh I’ll surrender much more for that man than I might for title the rental D man in the marketplace.”
Seravalli: “Yeah, and also you talked about price management. That’s perhaps probably the most fascinating half is the (Sharks) don’t have any wage retained transaction slots left. So in the event that they’re going to maneuver Mario Ferraro, and I believe that groups have been calling and asking, and I believe the Sabres are sorry, not the Sabres, the Sharks are prepared and keen to deal. They’re able to make issues occur.
That getting him at $3.25 million prefer it’s not an absurd quantity, and groups view him as an important type of 4 or 5 pivot. Can comfortably play in your second pair, can comfortably defend in your third pair as effectively, and he’s tremendous effectively favored, brings a ton of power. I believe there’s a variety of the explanation why a staff would contemplate going after somebody like Ferraro.
And we had Jesse Montano on, that’s what actually obtained the wheels spinning yesterday. He talked in regards to the connection from UMass between Cale Makar and Ferraro. I simply talked about how a lot I’m not a believer in Colorado’s second and third pairs. Properly, perhaps that is a type of guys that may be a true nice match, and a tip of the cap to Jesse as effectively.” (The Avalanche did purchase Ryan Lindgren over the weekend)
