He's likely purposely trolling the crowd while also not wanting to assume he's a Sabre. I hope he wears a new number for each practice & 3v3 tournie and #100 (for that kid in Roswell Park) in the Scrimmage.

Deslauriers is an emergency Dman at the NHL level nothing more, nothing less. One guy I wonder if we could acquire is Brian Campbell as a stopgap. to give McCabe another year to season. He may be 36, and he may not be a defensive mastermind but he still puts up commendable points and hasn't missed 1 game in the last 4 seasons. He still eats alot of minutes and has a Ring, one year left on his contract at about 7.2mil. He shouldn't be immensely expensive and could fill in the roll at the top D pair for 1 year I'd assume.

Updated 2015-2016 Lineup Kane-O'Reilly-Ennis Moulson-Eichel-Girgensons McGinn-Reinhart-Gionta Foligno-Legwand-Deslauriers McCormick-Larsson Gorges-Risto Donovan-Bogosian Weber-Pysyk Colaiacovo Lehner Johnson We appear to have a weak left side and at very least a moderate right side.

I don't think the league would announce it if not.

I don't think they can, the reason they took picks from the Devils was because they had made an even more outrageous contract offer which the league rejected. If the league accepted it, they cannot do anything about it.

I think he's good for depth, I think Murray would like to trade for an LD or get Oduya, or even both. However, he's also smart enough to pick up some relatively good D that can still play a bit if he's unable to get the others completed. After all, would you rather have to scramble to scrape what's left of the UFA D guys in September or have a bit of choice and prepare for whatever may happen.

The playoffs would be nice, though their success doesn't hinge on it. If they work their off and make it I see that as nothing bad. The only way making it to the playoffs could be bad is if they make it due to 25+ OT Wins/Losses/SOs thus have inflated points.

New trade proposals: Since Hamilton went for 1,2,2 I would guess we would need to meet that + a smidgen. Thus I'd start with Krug and Kelly(Cap Dump, at least that's what Bruins forums are complaining about) for Our 2016 2nd, our 2nd in 2017 and Larsson Then I'd trade Kelly/Legwand(50%) and our 2016 4th and 7th for their 3rd They claim to be looking for a 4th line C and both would be just that. Better than earlier I'd assume.

Are you 100% positive he isn't?

:rolleyes: Though, hell it might work if we catch the Sweeney from the Hamilton trade

Legwand(50%), 3 2nds, and Kea

Supposedly Boston is open to dealing Krug

Seems a little busy in my opinion, the other 3 have a sleek design.

That was awesome how he smiled about it. I also liked how he was sort of the anti-Grigs, Eichel feels he needs to earn his spot on the team, while Grigs felt it was somewhat an entitlement

He had 2 goals and 1 assist in 7 playoff games with the Flyers

I came around with Zadorov

I will never trade Girgs and you should be ashamed for even thinking it. I'd legitimately cry if we trade Girgs or Risto. Not to mention furious and wanting Murray's head

That is true, I'm not really all that excited nor appalled by him however. The need for him to put in #1 minutes like before would be short lived, but his upside is damn good.

I wouldn't offersheet Tarasenko, I want my 1st rounder next year seeing as it is here.

If true I'd grab both him and Beauchemin if at all possible. 31 isn't terribly old. Problem is supposedly he wants to go to a contender.

Beauchemin 2x6.5mil would be my offer. Then if he still wants to play and is still useful we'd just give him lesser salary.

I say a definite no to a 2nd Toronto team, I hate the idea with a passion. It would take fans away from the Sabres potentially along with giving us another annoying team to hear whine about everything and act snobbish. Leave it 16 v 16 Conferences, send Columbus/Detroit back west if Quebec enters the fray either by a move or expansion. In your 3 Conference design I'd switch Ottawa with Washington, but would rather keep the 2 Conference system

I at least, would have a seemingly coherent plan.

You know I just noticed instead of "Cease and Desist" I said "Cease and Assist" :doh: The article made even my worst proposals sound like a Dreger rumor in legitimacy. Kessel and defense ........ do not mix

I've got this role copyrighted Tolstoy so unless you want to pay royalties, I expect you to cease and assist making up trades.
