Win to Calgary for acquiring quality and the best player in this trade with Kuznetsov. Buffalo adds a healthy package of prospects however I do not believe their is much of a ceiling on Siemens nor Wells, while Henrik Sedin is clearly past his prime and nearing retirement.
PPG ADDS TRADE ICONI prefer not to jump the queue so I'll leave this trade here and the Commissioners can process once the Freeze period draws to an end.Submitted for review to the Trade Committee is a deal between Calgary and Buffalo: To Calgary Flames:Evgeny Kuznetsov, $7.1m (2016-2020)Keith Kinkaid, $3.3m (2014-2017)FOR To Buffalo Sabres:Henrik Sedin, $5.5m (2013-2017)Alex Goligoski, $5.5m (2014-2018)C - Jonathan Dahlen (2016: 2/42 - 0 Games)D - Duncan Siemens (2011: 1/11 - 1 Games)G - Dylan Wells (2016: 5/123 - 0 Games)The salary involved is similar. Calgary looks to gets younger and add a goalie that has a good skillset. Kuznetsov is our type of player to build the franchise around. Sedin (nearing retirement), Goligoski (older defender on a weaker team) and the 3 youngsters were not that steep of a price (Wells was the darkhorse we wanted to keep but we are getting a goalie in return). Thanks for the Holiday trade negotiations BurkesBoys.
