Lets temper our enthusiasm for nfreeman. I've heard from reputable sources that this guy is the "Ville Leino" of message board moderators. He is just in it for the money. I hear he is a fair weather fan and is already looking at other moderating positions on the L.A. Kings message board.

yea the trade with Edmonton was preposterous since the oilers need defense and we had already traded away 2 defensemen Wishfull thinking

Evander Kane is coming to Buffalo for Tyler Myers. Erhoff and Gigorenko go to the Avalanche for ROR. Stewart and Foligno and 3 second round picks to Edmonton for #3 overall. OK now the fantasy has ended and back to reality, Nothing happens. Sabres draft Bennett and he doesn't play for us this year.

I would say at least one year and possibly 2 years before he is NHL ready. He simply does not have an NHL body yet.

I don't know if Israelis would pay much for a deserter.

St. Louis has been a huge upgrade over Callahan . Elite talent is key and perhaps Callahan is overrated due to his high effort leadership skills

Hoppertunity was just scratched. Mike Smith has no one to ride.

The fact that Dallas is going to the playoffs is just another indictment of Darcy's incompetence. I think the real message is that Dallas is going to the playoffs because they made a bold move to trade for Seguin and draft Nichushkin. These are both moves that Darcy should have done and didn't. The fact that Lindy is a great coach is obvious and I am happy he is going to the playoffs.

Aaron Murray has potential to be a Drew Brees or a Colt Mccoy. He will get picked in the 3rd or fourth round. The girlfriend is hot.

Yacupov is this years Burmistrov. We could have had Burmis last year but Darcy wouldn't pull the trigger so he went to the KHL. I would not give up Pyscyk but Miller, Myers, Grigorenko even Ennis are doable. Edmonton has to be worried that he could bolt for KHL.

No way do I move Pysyk. Miller and Myers for Yacupov and I would take back a cap dump and pay half of Millers salary. I would even throw in a 3rd round pick. Myers is a mediocre player and I.m hoping we can find any GM to take him off our hands.

I would love it if Lindy and miller won the cup. It would also make Darcy look bad

We need to trade Miller now. With our dreadful defense, he will have a 4 goals against average and everyone will think he is done. We need to trade Myers now for a bag of pucks. The more he plays the worse he looks.

Myers needs to be traded now. Hopefully there is some GM out there who would be willing to part with something of value for a soft overpaid Myers. Maybe they will fall in love with his size. The more he plays the more his trade value falls.

That won't happen due to the huge disparity in contracts going to the oilers. We would have to take on a salary dump and also pay half of Millers contract

Unfortunately I think that Myers, Stafford,and Leino have negative value. They are unmovable. Grigorenko belongs in the AHL but is too young. Darcy and Rolston aren't going anywhere. Vanek and Miller won't get moved till the trade deadline and they may not be able to move Miller at all.

This team is tough to watch. Could Vanek, Miller, Myers, Stafford, Grigorenko etc. get moved in the near future. I need something to look forward to. I'm worried we will turn into Edmonton with less talent for the next 4 years. Any chance of a coaching or GM change? I'm desperate for something hopeful.

I would rather see miller and stafford moved now instead of pominville and vanek

They have been hanging out with Russ Brandon too much. Compared to Buddy Nix, Darcy is an outstanding GM.

I know Darcy doesn't have the balls to trade Myers, but a new GM might. I would like to keep Pominville and Vanek long term and resign Hodgson and Ennis as well as add more elite talent. Someone has to go in a trade for both value and contract reasons to get a decent return. No one is giving us an elite player for Stafford or Leino.

The Chara card is irrellevant. The only thing he has in common with Chara is height. I think Ennis is a more physical player. I would not move Myers for picks, only for blue chip prospects or legitmite stars.

I do not feel he will ever develop into an elite defensemen. He lacks toughness, leadership and shies away from contact. I think his value will fall as more GM realize his failed potential.

Does Anyone think Darcy will make a substantial move at the deadline? or are we looking at just moving Leopold for a 3rd round pick if he is healthy?

Peter Lugers?

Why didn't we do this?
