Buffalo trades Rasmus Ristolainen to
Edmonton for Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.

I feel like Buffalo needs a quality d man a lot more than they need another quality centreman.

@ unsportsmanlike
Thank you for your comment. I am looking for feed back regarding the fairness of the trade. RNH gives the sabres a piece so I can trade ROR for a defense-man. If I can dump sufficient cap I have capital to sign John Tavares. Then I have JT, Eichel and RNH as my top 3 centers to build around.

At least it would be fair it they're was a quality centerman like Draisalt going back to Buff. RnH is a second line center. Does usaly don't get a top tire big D man.

Donâ€™t think buffalo is trading Risto.

Keep Risto. Especially if you get 1st overall Dahlin. That top pair of along with a #1 center Eichel and 2 ROR. Then build around that. maybe Middlestst can replace ROR as 2 center in a few years even.

Considering Risto has the 3rd highest toi in the nhl, is only 22 and is a 50 Point + dman easily on a playoff team heâ€™s worth a lot more then Nug3 from leafs Iâ€™d give Marner, Rielly+ or Nylander.

Buffalo needs risto more than they need Nuge so easy no from Buffalo.

Drai is on a 35 point pace when not playing with McDavid
Heâ€™s not what you want especially with his contract.

I think Buffalo already has an RNH. with I believe more upside in Reinhart. would need more for Risto. and I like RNH. I think Buffalo is a solid goalie away from being a pretty good team, the young guys are going to keep maturing. Risto is a key young guy., probabably 2nd to only Eichel. They won't move him.

Borje where do you get that? Just curious because i just read an article on the Athletic from end of January that said he has spent about half his time to that point away from McDavid and while his 5v5 scoring was down it was still 2 points/ 60 which they said was somewhere between Malkin and Barkov and top line production. I don't think a 35 point pace would be considered top like production. At that rate if he got 15 5v5 min/ game he'd get 41 points not counting powerplay and short handed. He has 13 non 5 on 5 points this year (has struggled on PP) .

Jbs32 don't worry about Borje, all he does is spew oilers hate. It's funny. He's just an idiot hater.

No from Buffalo, simply because they have an abundance of natural centers (Eichel, ROR, Middelstadt, Reinhart), and are VERY thin on D.

Iâ€™m not an idiot hater Yup. In fact, I donâ€™t mind you at all.

Sorry, heâ€™s at a 37.17 pace without McDavid. Small sample size as he only has played away from him 37.5 % at even strength and 100% of the time together on pp. when he is away from McDavid his line is outscored by a ratio of 57.1%-42.9.

Would I want Drai on my team? Of course. At 22 he is still getting better. Would I give up Risto for him? Not a chance.

How is risto a 50 pt dman if heâ€™s never got 50 pts before. Also has never had a season + lol. Not taking anything away from him but whereâ€™s the hype coming from heâ€™s never done anything in buffalo yet? Yes heâ€™s a good dman but where is all this value coming from is he the new parayko from last year (colt joke) but just wondering.

No no, You are just a hater. Literally the only thing you post is Oilers hate on Oilers posts. It's nothing new and I don't expect it t change. You're Flames finished the year strong tho hey. should pick up a decent prospect with the 1st round draft pick, Oh wait.

Iâ€™m a leafs fan ( btw ) if he can play 30+ min in the nah youâ€™re a top 2 dman on any team. Risto has all the tools to be great he just needs to get out of Buffalo.

Yup are you still living those lottery dreams that make all Oiler fans act so superior from June until November when the Oil are out yet again? I guess the Flames will have to settle for finding another Johnny, Ferland or Brodie a little later and develop them. Much like the Oil have done with.
