Hoss Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) For a third rounder... Team release: TRADE ALERT: The Sabres have acquired a 3rd round pick in the 2017 NHL Draft from @washcaps for Mike Weber. Edited February 23, 2016 by Hoss Quote
qwksndmonster Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 I was already planning on rooting for the Caps in the playoffs this year. Good for Webby. Quote
Hoss Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Sabres retain half of Weber's salary Sabres GM Tim Murray: “I would like to thank Mike for his time with the Sabres and wish him the best in Washington.” Quote
Brawndo Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) It gives Weber a legitimate shot at a Stanley Cup this season good for him Edited February 23, 2016 by BRAWNDO Quote
Taro T Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 So, have the rumors of cheers being heard in the Colaiacova household been confirmed? :p Quote
sodbuster Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Ahhh, he was finally finding his groove. Actually, that's probably why we even got a third for him. I like it. I was already planning on rooting for the Caps in the playoffs this year. Good for Webby.This too. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 I feel like I just slept with Sofia Vergara. Quote
Weave Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 I feel like I just slept with Sofia Vergara. Dude, zip up and wash your hands, you weirdo. Quote
pi2000 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Finally!! THis was overdue by about 4 seasons....but does he even break into the Caps lineup at any point? 3rd rounder (likely very late) is excellent return. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Dude, zip up and wash your hands, you weirdo. All I need is a change of pants. Quote
Brawndo Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Posted February 23, 2016 From Joe Yerdon Understated part of deadline trades Tim Murray has made with impending UFAs: He sends them to contenders. Players must appreciate that. I feel like I just slept with Sofia Vergara. I'm probably one of the few males on the face of the Earth who does not find her attractive. Quote
Beer Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Good for Weber. He gets a legit shot at the cup and he's still on the east coast. Quote
tom webster Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 From Joe Yerdon Understated part of deadline trades Tim Murray has made with impending UFAs: He sends them to contenders. Players must appreciate that. I'm probably one of the few males on the face of the Earth who does not find her attractive. I'm with you there. Quote
Iron Crotch Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 A third rounder is about right for Weber. Maybe we could have done slightly better (second) by waiting, but why take that chance. Good luck to him in Washington! Quote
Weave Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 All I need is a change of pants. And less bizarre fantasies...... Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Man, it really does take all types. I figured she was pretty universal. Quote

Players must appreciate that. I'm probably one of the few males on the face of the Earth who does not find her attractive. Of course they are being traded to contenders. That's who the deadline buyers are. Quote
thesportsbuff Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 A third rounder is about right for Weber. Maybe we could have done slightly better (second) by waiting, but why take that chance. Good luck to him in Washington! I don't think there's any chance we'd get a 2nd for him, but still sucks to see him go. Quote
... Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Not sure what I think of this yet. I suppose a third is okay. Good for him he goes to a contender, as far as we're concerned, but I wonder what he thinks. It's no secret his heart was/is with the Sabres. Quote
Weave Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 Man, it really does take all types. I figured she was pretty universal. I did too. I'm more wierded out by you getting off on Mike Weber's fortunes. :sick: Quote
WildCard Posted February 23, 2016 Report Posted February 23, 2016 (edited) I was already planning on rooting for the Caps in the playoffs this year. Good for Webby.Same here. Though now maybe a little less.... Edited February 23, 2016 by WildCard Quote
GrassValleyGreg Posted February 24, 2016 Report Posted February 24, 2016 A 3rd is a steal. Retaining half of the salary bumped it up from a 4th (I'm assuming) according to LeBrun. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted February 24, 2016 Report Posted February 24, 2016 Good for him. Good for the Sabres. Is he a 6/7 with the Caps? This sort of move calls to mind when the Sabres loaded up on marginal d-men in 2007. Quote
