BREAKING NEWS: Edmonton Oilers acquire G Ryan Vinz from BUF for a 7th round pick

 

Sweet deal - that's like a late 6th round pick since it is the Oilers. :)

I still think maybe the Philly or Washington for Halak. I think Washington would do Neuvirth + mid round pick. At least we would have a goalie signed for next year.

This just in...Vinz invokes his no trade clause to nix the deal. Oilers "not on the list." Who knew he had an NTC?

 

###### it. Must have a pretty good agent to squeeze BUF for a NTC on a one game tryout contract.

Yeah but he's late to the party on this one.

 

Certainly. It's almost like the party Capped off before Garrioch even got in.

 

@CJ_Stevenson

Hearing the #kings are kicking the tires on Ehrhoff. #sabres

 

Gotcha, a few posts up. :P

 

@AdamVingan: I believe the universe would immediately collapse into itself if Jaroslav Halak became a Capital.

 

 

Why?

 

​Sure, he knocked Washington out in the first round in 2010 when they were the one seed. But that's just a stupid statement. ###### happens and things change.

I don't think anyone in their right mind is going to give up more than a 4th for Halak. What starter is he better than on any playoff team? He needs to stay with the Sabres to back-up Enroth in 2015 on the march for Connor M. Maybe Enroth gets moved? TM likes taller goalies. Enroth might be the only guy in the league under 6 foot.

 

Better question is what is going to happen to Matt Hackett. Nathan L. has outplayed him in Rochester. Maybe package Hackett, Grigorenko and two 2nds to Calgary for their 2015 1st.

 

I don't know, we might have to give them Luke Adam to make that deal happen.

I'm surprised Winnipeg isn't in on the Halak talk. Pavelec and Halak would be a pretty good tandem.

 

I still have a feeling we're going to end up with Luongo by tomorrow.

The bolded is true if the rest of statement was meant in earnest.

 

Halak is a great piece for a number of teams. Short list would be Washington, Minnesota, and the long shot Philadelphia.

I'm rock hard right now. I really hope Stafford gets dealt. Too bad we already used all of our salary retention. Oh well. I'll take a salary dump and a 3rd for Drewby any day.

 

We are going to struggle to get to the cap floor, we don't need a salary dump. Drew is better than a third rounder. Unless it is a decent offer there is no reason to get rid of him. Someone has to play hockey for us

I think Vancouver (to dump Lou's contract), Winnepeg, New Jersey (to dump Brodeur), Columbus and Philly would be good places for Halak as well. It's just a matter of which team really wants to take a chance on him re-signing in the offseason. A non-playoff team wouldn't make much sense right now but you never know.

It's totally fine with me that you think that, but...

 

I want him gone.
