Enter the Kings per Mike Chambers

 

UFA D Will Butcher is traveling to New Jersey today to meet w #Devils & #LAKings among top choices, I learned at @DU_Hockey pro camp this AM

It's gonna be NJ.

Yep per Blues Beat Reporter Kevin Strickland

 

 

Hearing it's 50/50 between #NJDevils and #Lakings for @DU_Hockey free agent Will Butcher

Okay, bye bye.

 

So Antipin, he's intriguing

Hate the beaatch but Vesey did pretty well.

There's just no future with that team. Definitely not compared to us at least. At least the Devils have Nico, Hall, and...honestly I don't know who else.

He probably looked at the log jam of LHD and realized he is behind on the depth chart. Guhle will get a call up before he does most likely. The Devils give him the best opportunity to make the NHL Quickly.

Makes sense. Kinda figured he'd go that route anyways.

 

Still, thinking on the Vesey thing still doesn't make a lot of sense to me, outside of the allure of NYC

Meh, I mean maybe this guy does nothing in the NHL, but he owed us nothing and we didn't trade a pick on this one, so it stings less I suppose.

 

 

Or it's because buffalo sucks, has always sucked and will never ever be good...

 

Because buffalo ;)

And his agent said there is no truth to the report and that the Sabres are still very much in the mix.

I mean, Vessey said the same thing

First, great gif use.

 

Second, there is no because Buffalo. Not everyone has to kiss the ground we walk on. Butcher or no Butcher we already got Antipin so that alone is a positive because Buffalo.

 

My point, we need a mindset change. Be happier for the positive things and less worried when a really minor thing goes a different way.

This is Stafford's fault

I think it has more to do with validation as a place players want to play vs stocking the cupboards with prospects.    

 

Okposo is really the only guy I can remember, in recent memory anyway, who choose Buffalo over other cities.

 

As a fan you want players to want to come play in Buffalo.    If he chooses NJD, folks will be upset because they'll take it as a slight on the city, not necessarily because BUF didn't land a depth prospect.

Most importantly Antipin still agreed this was his best opportunity was the Sabres. Even after Murray and Bylsma were fired and the Hockey World declared the Sabres to be everything from the League Laughingstock to a Giant Sh!tshow Antipin still signed in Buffalo.

Antipin also signed before we made the two trades I think. Right??
