Iron Crotch Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 The Fourth Period claims that Stasny will not be traded: http://www.thefourthperiod.com/news/col110227.html Seems like our best bet for a top-line center may be Richards, but given the price I expect another "Darcy deal" to happen tomorrow (i.e. mid-level player who doesn't make much of an impact). Hope I'm wrong!
LGR4GM Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Kesler is the guy we need but no we can not get him. He took less money to stay in vancouver last year so he wants to play with the sedins there. Players we could actually get that might help, Foligno or Dubinsky or a similar type person. However thats a temporary fix for a problem that requires a top notch guy. Idk or think we will honestly get anyone remotely close to a decent center. Nope I beleive we will keep Tim "dont hit me" connolly who will cough up pucks faster than a hooker with lung cancer, chain smokin her way through her 3rd carton of cigarettes.
Two or less Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 I have visions of Pegula sitting in a war room with Darcy, remembering how he used to watch all those matchups against the Bruins simultaneously dreading and admiring #8 in black/gold. How's this for a completely vague, "if I were a billionaire" wish: I want anything that's 25 years old or younger, with at least a year left on his contract, that's got that new Cam Neely-ish smell. :-) I want teams looking at our roster and cringing and dying a little on the inside when they think about having to go into corner against those guys. Pretty sure Terry is back in Florida. Ted Black, Ken Sawyer, Darcy and Ruff will be in the war room. Pegula is a die hard fan but his opinions on hockey stuff won't be relevant when it comes to making deals. The four guys have the green light to improve the team at any cost, thats as far as Pegula's imput will go tomorrow.

LGR4GM Posted February 27, 2011 Report Posted February 27, 2011 Here is how tomorrow is going to go. Darcy will wait and wait and wait. Then right before the deadline he will trade something crappy for something else crappy. The He will hold a press conference and say "well its hard to deal and the prices were to high and there just werent any really good players available but I think we have done well" Heres my response 24hours ahead of schedule "go :censored: yourself"
ROC Sabres Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Latest from hockeycrap. Sabres in on MJ Liles (e3). This Liles to Buffalo stuff is going to get old quick. Kinda like the Kaberle trade that was spose to happen for the past 5 years or whatever.

Kinda like the Kaberle trade that was spose to happen for the past 5 years or whatever. A yahoo writer picked up on it as well. Don't know how good this guy is, but he's saying JML will waive his movement clause to come to Buffalo. http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/news?slug=nc-nhltradedeadlinequestions022711
carpandean Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Wish list: in order. I realize you'd only be able to get one, im not saying trade for them all. B Richards Stastny D. Brown J Michael Liles Iginla Really? JML before Iginla?

He would certainly help the power play, but I question whether the team really needs more undersized players at this point.

Pegula won't change that one bit.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Darcy's favorite type of player...soft and undersized. Pegula won't change that one bit. lets let the owner have a chance to bring in players before we start determining they will be Darcy guys small etc. I think TP clearly pointed out need to grit
RayFinkle Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Darcy's favorite type of player...soft and undersized. Pegula won't change that one bit. False...Liles is not European. Darcy likes soft undersized Europeans....he is making progress.

Ok, no chance we have him two months from now. He won't be resigned.
Lanny Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 False...Liles is not European. Darcy likes soft undersized Europeans....he is making progress. I thought Darcy was beat up around here for not drafting Euros? Ok, no chance we have him two months from now. He won't be resigned. In what appears to be a weak free agent market, I wonder if they bring him back if the price is right. By right I mean $2.5 mill or less.

I wouldnt bring connolly back for sh*t flavored cupcake. :censored:

ROC Sabres Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 False...Liles is not European. Darcy likes soft undersized Europeans....he is making progress. And then that would make what, 12 US born players on the sabres roster. You really have to wonder if they are trying to make "America's" hockey team.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Dreger says Leafs to get at least a 1st and 3rd for MacArthur if they want it. Same position as Stafford is in.
LGR4GM Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 509games, 68goals, 202a, 270pts, -13, 212pm are J.M. Liles career stats and hes only ever played 1 full season seems to get injured and honestly not that amazing. Rather get Mark Streit for 100k less but w/e Im not the guy making the decisions. This is a trade rumor that I am 50/50 on. Sounds good but not sure if it addresses our pp issue. :wallbash:
thesportsbuff Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 i dont really care for JML at all. we already have a logjam at defense and none of them (even JML) are significantly better than the others. all i want is a forward, or two.
Lanny Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 http://www.hockeybuzz.com/ Foligno The Sens are jetting vets outta Ottawa faster than Frank & Theresa can serve suicidal Buffalo wings at the Anchor Bar. I\'m hearing that Buffalo are interested in the versatility of winger/centre Nick Foligno to upgrade their forward ranks. Getting Foligno would afford Buffalo flexibility to move Hecht. Sabres in on JM Liles(e3) The Sabres are going to be intriguing over the next 20 hours. More to come. Source: Eklund The Foligno rumor was written earlier, however the Hecht part of it is new and interesting.

This is a trade rumor that I am 50/50 on. Sounds good but not sure if it addresses our pp issue. His first 5 years in the league he had seasons of 79, 82, 71, 81, & 75 games, not sure I'd beat up on him for only playing 1 "full" season. Most don't make it for all 82. i dont really care for JML at all. we already have a logjam at defense and none of them (even JML) are significantly better than the others. all i want is a forward, or two. Wouldn't mind getting Liles and shipping out Montador for a pick though. Perhaps ends in a wash with a better Dman signed beyond just this year. Or could allow them to make Butler or Sekera available. Liles is more offensively skilled than any of the Sabres current Dmen.
LGR4GM Posted February 28, 2011 Report Posted February 28, 2011 Ya I read the hecht thing yesterday, I honestly can not come up with a good reason to get Liles. Kinda like trading McCarthur for Torres absolutely worthless. Welll lets get some more defensmen we could use at least 8 more and hell lets trade some forwards to add depth to the d. Darcy you suck! :wallbash:
