Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Source: Stafford has just ordered and shipped a $259 guitar amp from Amazon Prime to his Buffalo address.....
Samson's Flow Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 :cry: We were so close... maybe next year
spndnchz Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Looks like we wait until next years deadline day. Value will be higher then.
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 There is always the possibility of a draft day deal. Or, even better, a contract year deadline deal next February. We have to keep the faith. Although, now I see even a bigger role for Drew on this team.
Robviously Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Looks like we wait until next years deadline day. Value will be higher then. Why?
TrueBlueGED Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Why? Many assume he scored 30 goals because it was a contract year. If that's really what caused the 30 to happen, something similar will happen again.
... Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Come on, Timmy, let me shut this down! I'm sorry. Really.
Samson's Flow Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Many assume he scored 30 goals because it was a contract year. If that's really what caused the 30 to happen, something similar will happen again. And then we can trade him to Minnesota for their 2nd round pick in 2016. Thus ensuring that Minnesota never picks in the 2nd round again! mwhahahaha :devil:
Eleven Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Posted March 5, 2014 And then we can trade him to Minnesota for their 2nd round pick in 2016. Thus ensuring that Minnesota never picks in the 2nd round again! mwhahahaha :devil: Don't we already have that one, too?
Robviously Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Don't we already have that one, too? Yup. We need their 2015 2nd rounder to complete the trilogy. *sigh* And another few months of Drew Stafford on our hockey team.....
chileanseabass Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 No point in trading Stafford now. He's back on track, and will be the team captain next year :rolleyes: Can't wait til next season!
Robviously Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Many assume he scored 30 goals because it was a contract year. If that's really what caused the 30 to happen, something similar will happen again. I feel like we just learned the hard way that waiting until the deadline isn't always your best course of action. Not to mention we traded Pominville last year because his value was higher with an extra year left on the contract. Right now we have no idea what Stafford's value will be in a year.

I'm not sure about that, it's not like we *have* to trade Stafford next year at the deadline, he might be an attractive piece in the offseason (if he continues playing well) for a team looking to make a run next year. This year, a good team doesn't want to disrupt too much. At the draft/summer, a good team may want Drew to replace an outgoing UFA. Plus, in the last year of his deal it's not as much of a risk.
Doohicksie Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Honestly. Just give him the C. He'll be gone before you know it.
Rasmus_ Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Looks like we wait until next years deadline day. Value will be higher then. Or at the draft?!? Or the offseason. No need to go half the season next year with him on the roster. Clense it completely. :P
That Aud Smell Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 So the Staff Infection is getting his "A" back. Between PLF's departure and this development (Stafford's been good, I will admit), my signature block needs an overhaul.

Jsixspd Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 He's up to 11 goals now for the season - our third most productive player behind CoHo and Tyler Ennis. 4th in points too!
tom webster Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 He's up to 11 goals now for the season - our third most productive player behind CoHo and Tyler Ennis. 4th in points too! And I bet he has about 40 shutouts, oh wait, that's not good for a forward is it?
TrueBlueGED Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Say it with me: four more years! Four more years!
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Say it with me: four more years! Four more years! If it were up to me, I'd ban you for that post ... :P
Jsixspd Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 And I bet he has about 40 shutouts, oh wait, that's not good for a forward is it? See, you had to go and spoil it, by bringing up the rest of the NHL. His stats look decent when compared with the rest of the Sabres, but not so good in comparison to the rest of the league. Stafford is 165th in the league in goals, and way down at 206th place in points. That's really not very good, is it? :lol:
Jsixspd Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Howevah, . Stafford looks like a superstar compared to Leino. Leino is 437th place in points, and 662nd place in goals. ;)
