Philly confirms. I've got no clue what Buffy is doing or thinking so we'll take a calculated risk and do this trade to clear cap and add a good blueline prospect as a placeholder until we can find a better option to replace Buffy's points this year. Thanks for the trade Beef!

I think gets a good deal here. But of course if Byfuglien returns, this is a huge win for Buffalo, hands down.

Like I said, we took a calculated risk.

I wonder what insider information PPG has on Big Buff

Interested trade! I didn't know that we could trade conditional picks. Makes total sense in this deal.

[ALL4U2NV]

Seems reasonable given Buff's suspension for staying home.

[PigsRule]

a rarity to have conditions but this makes sense.

  creativity needed to take a risk for the big fellow. Hope he comes back!
