bigtalljoe Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Hey we got something while only giving up a draft pick, i know the big names didnt come in but its still a good day for the Sabres.
stenbaro Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Thats a good move..He is a decent center and we are lacking in that spot..I woulda rather had guerin for the song he was bought for bought at least they got a center that can play...
That Aud Smell Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Carolina's 2nd help me out on that one ...
shrader Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Refresh my memory here. What did he get Carolina's 2nd rounder for? Was it somehow involved in the Bernier-Vancouver deal? And for the record, Moore is also an UFA at the end of the year.
thesportsbuff Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 What is Moore's contract status? UFA this year...
2ForTripping Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 TO tried to re up with him but couldn't seal it up so Burke let him go UFA
carpandean Posted March 4, 2009 Author Report Posted March 4, 2009 Dominic Moore is solid on faceoffs. Pushing 55% on 1000 draws this season. Also, 41 points in 63 games in Toronto is pretty good. If I remember correctly, he was looking for $2.5 million per from Toronto, who wasn't willing to go above $2 million.

Patty16 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 why is this a good move?? he doesnt do a whole lot for this team and is gone in a few months??
2ForTripping Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 This pick up can possibly let them roll 4 solid
shrader Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 why is this a good move?? he doesnt do a whole lot for this team and is gone in a few months?? Center depth
nfreeman Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 I like the move, although I expect this to be just a rental. Darcy doesn't take 2nd round picks lightly, so I see this as another indication that they are very intent on making the playoffs this year.
billsrcursed Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 why is this a good move?? he doesnt do a whole lot for this team and is gone in a few months?? Do you watch Sabres games? You haven't made one post today that's made sense, why are you here?
2ForTripping Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Who rides with who now that 4 lines can be rolling
frisky Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 I think he's strictly a rental to help push them into the playoffs and hopefully jolt the offense while only giving up a 2nd round pick. I think that's how he will help the team. He's only making 700k this year and is UFA. He's also 29 so not a spring chicken but still got some tread left. I'm not sure if they will try to resign him after the season but it might depend on how he does while he's here. I think though that he might not be able to replicate his career year as it was said on the radio that prior to this year, his season high is only 18 points. I see this as a Zubrus kind of move. Overall, I think they did pretty decent although I was hoping for a longer term solution to adding veteran leadership at the forward position to help Rivet.
Wraith Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Think he can get here for tonight's game? Would be interesting...

Yeah, it's playoffs or bust. Unfortunately, we still don't have a clue about the whole Miller situation.
Patty16 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Do you watch Sabres games? You haven't made one post today that's made sense, why are you here? No i dont watch the games or make logical posts in an effort to irritate you. Just seems like a high price for a rental that doesnt put the team over the top. It might get them into the playoffs but thats it.
