idk man, gotta respect the cap hit on tuch but the third rounder feels steep, especially now he's gone to washington imo

yeah idk wut u guys are talkin bout, now dat he's gone we shouldve just made an offer sheet lol ngl the cap hit is a killer

@sam_sabres dont be salty cause we cant afford to make offer sheets anymore, remember what happened last time?

imo the third rounder wouldnt have been so bad if he even wanted to stay here, but tbh now that hes gone i feel like it was a total waste of cap space and assets man

i dont think that even remotely wouldve made sense to offer sheet him, dude was already off the board by then, and we'dve probably gotten spanked for it lol

i think we were just desperate, didnt wanna let him go to another team so we threw some $$ at him, now its looking stupid @Sabres71 man

i think the cap hit is a major part of this, and now he's off elsewhere ngl it did look like a desperation move

@sam_sabres: yep, desperation always gets ugly in hindsight. We gave up a 3rd for Haggstrom too...

tbh yeah desperation gets ugly in hindsight and we've got some major regrets coming our way now that tuce is off playing elsewhere lol @sam_sabres at least haggstrom's still here rn

yeah desperation kills, and now we gotta deal with the cap hit on tuch's contract for 8 years lol

yeah and now we gotta wonder if haggstrom's deal was worth a third too... i mean its not like we're hurting for cap space or anything lol

yeah haggstroms gotta produce or we'll be regretting that trade too, tbh his contract already looks a lil bloated to me
