slugspirit Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 From tsn.ca... Linky-Poo It's not Ottawa or Toronto :o , but early speculation is pointing to Pittsburgh being his likely destination.

slugspirit Posted February 26, 2007 Author Report Posted February 26, 2007 From tsn.ca... Linky-Poo It's not Ottawa or Toronto :o , but early speculation is pointing to Pittsburgh being his likely destination. Update... it's either Buffalo, Pittsburgh, or Montreal. Probably one of the first two. This could be an interesting day.
will Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 montreal appears to be sellers, what with rivet going to the sharks yesterday.
RayFinkle Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 Update... it's either Buffalo, Pittsburgh, or Montreal. Probably one of the first two. This could be an interesting day. where is this "update" from? link?
shrader Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 where is this "update" from? link? Probably everyone's favorite source for made up rumors. Why else would the poster not provide a link?
slugspirit Posted February 26, 2007 Author Report Posted February 26, 2007 where is this "update" from? link? Bob McKenzie via radio. However, the TSN article has been revised and you can see that Pittsburgh is probably where Roberts is going. They seem to think Malone may be going the other way. (If true, then good call, Inkman) Malone would be way too much to give up for Roberts.

They seem to think Malone may be going the other way. (If true, then good call, Inkman) Malone would be way too much to give up for Roberts. My question to whoever in Pittsburg that would be making this trade is, "Does two months of Roberts service outweigh the future of a power forward who could be a star in the making?" It's not like the Penguins are actually going to compete for a cup this year. Their D just isn't good enough.
deluca67 Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 A three way deal would be great. If Malone ended up in a Sabre uni? He would fit right in.
nfreeman Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 Regardless of whether we get Roberts, Malone, or anyone else, I object to the use of "Linky-poo".
Hawerchuk Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 I don't think Roberts is as effective anymore. Too old!!
wjag Posted February 26, 2007 Report Posted February 26, 2007 Regardless of whether we get Roberts, Malone, or anyone else, I object to the use of "Linky-poo". I second that.
slugspirit Posted February 26, 2007 Author Report Posted February 26, 2007 linky poo? Ha. It's catching on in other threads... ...you know you all love it. :nana:
inkman Posted February 27, 2007 Report Posted February 27, 2007 Interesting new (?) info On Monday, Roberts said he rescinded a request that whatever team Florida dealt him to needed to extend his contract by a year. Roberts also confirmed he wanted to be dealt to Ottawa or Toronto, but would go to Buffalo as well.
wjag Posted February 27, 2007 Report Posted February 27, 2007 Why would we want a 40 year old guy on this team? Please, oh please don't bite on this one.
inkman Posted February 27, 2007 Report Posted February 27, 2007 Why would we want a 40 year old guy on this team? Please, oh please don't bite on this one. Maybe because he's won a cup and is a grizzled vet with a physical presence that the Sabres sorely need. :unsure:

Roberts also confirmed he wanted to be dealt to Ottawa or Toronto, but would go to Buffalo as well. TSN is reporting no issues and that Roberts waived his clause for Pittsburgh. It's pretty much assumed he'll be going there for D-man Noah Welch (NOT Malone).
