Pretty sure he has several things going on to try to improve this team still, but he is always very candid, some talks work out but most do not. He probably has been working on the Kulikov deal for over a year now, while also talking to Anaheim about Fowler. Also Pysyk for Kulikov straight up is a pretty cheap trade for us. I look at it this way because the pick swap was just an extra deal you can find at any draft.

Was thinking the same yesterday, he might want to get a good fanbase going there.

The thing I like most about this trade is that it blind sided us. Kulikov was rumoured to be on the trade block, but no where buffalo was being mentioned. Means Murray runs a tight ship and everything that is being reported on usually is bull.

Agreed, but if you can sign Stamkos you add 40 goals a season, you just do it. Also don't think GMTM is willing to pay 12 mill a year to Stamkos. I think we have all come at a point where we say, If he signs great (added bonus to see Toronto go apeshit) , If he doesn't (move on other options out there to improve).

Read there would be two more seasons.

http://nhl.nbcsports.com/2016/06/28/kulikov-on-trade-to-sabres-change-is-sometimes-for-the-best/ Doesn't seem to hart broken about the trade, looking forward to getting his offensive game going more.

Because he is doing such an excellent job ruining the bruins. He is reaching Jim Benning / Sakic level.

3 Suicide bombers caused 3 explosions at Istanbul airport :( 32 dead already more than 60 wounded, this feels like its going to go on for ages.

Buying out moulson gets interesting as from next offseason, Maybe Las Vegas want him to get to the bottom floor.

Yeah well just talking contract, I'm sure they are still meeting with other teams, unless stamkos really wants Buffalo.

@_Buffalo_Sports Tim Murray and the Pegula's are speaking with Stamkos and Newport again this afternoon. Talks have progressed into contract demands. #Sabres Don't know if posted already but here you go :P

Not real , but the brexit jokes keep being funny :D BSE as in mad cow disease areas :p

Dutch people are weird, weird names , dunno tbh :P Edit: looked it up , apparently the club was established in 1968, the name eaters was brought with from the canadians playing for them. Trail smoke eaters apparently were the last canadian amateur team to become world champion. Seems like we can spend another 3rd round pick in 3 years on a college free agent :P

Kulikov is the russian player he can hope to grow into.

KHL is waiting for him now, maybe they'll do something about his mentality.

Haven't really been watching him, but isn't he worth a shot at least ?

Think I had both Vessey and Stamkos coming to us, Juolevi at #8 though, didn't think Nylander would drop.

I choose to not comment on stupid remarks like that :p

A bit harsh for this board no ? I think this one of the finest boards you can have and most on here have a good sense of not overreacting. As for having people on here working for the sabres, don't think that has any influence on their perspective of things, how many on this board actually work for the sabres, been here for 4 years now and I can't tell.

Stamkos will sign in 3 days :p Otherwise my Tom Webster contest takes a hit :unsure:

I actually like the design with legs :p

3 days and we sign him no worries :D Otherwise my Tom webster contest really takes a hit. :unsure:

GMTM pretty much stated this as well.

Reminded me of a baby making a mess after eating spaghetti.

Lieuwen would never have had a spot any more, Kasdorf and Ullmark will be the goalies in Rochester.
