Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

to SABRES:

Joe BASARABA (61)

to FLAMES:

Tuomo RUUTU (77)
3rd 2019 BUF

25y old Basaraba is for me better than 34y old Ruutu.. and Basaraba's contract 2,75mio X Ruutu 5,5mio ...

So I agree

Saved money before the draft only so I could spend it back during it.
I like Ruutu alot as a 3LW killing penalties. Alongside Couture and Ryan, that line looks like a world class shutdown 3rd line.

I could've decided to just play Joe in that spot for 50% of Tuomo's cap hit instead, but I can afford it.

Approved.
