Sabres Got Ripped Off in Tuch Deal?

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

@Sabres71 haggstroms gotta produce or we'll be regretting that trade too lol but lets not forget he's still our guy rn and tuch is playing for the capitals meanwhile

yeah @sam_sabres haggstroms gotta live up to that 4mil deal for sure, we'rent paying him to be avg imo lol

yeah agree avg is too low for haggstrom to live up to lol i think we're hoping for more than 40 points from him tbh

tbh i think we were all kinda downplaying his salary at the time but now that its out there, 4mil is a lot for haggstrom lol

4mil isn't "a lot", it's 3.33mil AAV, chill.

honestly yeah chill mike_d22 its still alot for haggstrom lol ngl i thought it was 4mil too at first @SabresNation wouldnt be mad about it though

no worries about being mad ngl sam_sabres we gotta get our roster right before worrying bout the cap lol
