I almost wonder if they took him for a contract dump, but also to be a vet D-man for the Amerks playoff push thus why they are so angry with him

Regardless of intention, they injured our best player so we should sick Scott on their top D-men! I'm haddit with injuries, we need to inflict a few for a change. -
What would it take to abandon the tank next year?
thewookie1 replied to thewookie1's topic in The Aud Club
Actually I never meant what would you want them to do or if you wanted to end the tank, but rather what would have to happen that you'd give up wishing for the tank. Rob, answered to what I was trying to ask; what would the Sabres have to accomplish this offseason plus next season to get you to abandon tanking for McDavid. AS for the Islanders deferring if in the Top 3, who knows at this point.... -
As the title says..... I'm thinking along the lines of, what I we end up with the 2 of the top 3 picks this year and thus we look far better next year. More so..... what if we get the top 2 picks, do we try, do you think we could succeed at, to strong arming Edm into giving us their 2015 1st and their 3rd overall in 2014 to get Ekblad?

Nice, so we got to watch a good game, and didn't lose any ground in a sense. Any word on how bad Girgs' injury is? -

I wonder if he's excited about meeting Hasek? -
I want them to win the lottery just so we can watch the Islanders squirm

Buffalo HAS to bring in 1 leader for next year (with talent)
thewookie1 replied to CallawaySabres's topic in The Aud Club
I'd go after Ott, Morrow, and Jagr. Moulson if he's willing and resign Tallinder. Aside from Ott & Moulson they are past their prime and experienced players with trade value at the deadline. If you keep Erhroff, give Sulzer another year. Find a Rivet sort of guy to give money to and give depth/experience to the youngsters. I'd then give Zadorov and Risto short NHL stints for experience(5 games each) I'd keep D'agstini and Ellis. Field the team with old guys and a spattering of "NHLers" and young guys. -
The Tank is Done (Now we're just bad)
thewookie1 replied to Johnny DangerFace's topic in The Aud Club
I can see 1 scenario with this occurring; risto and Zadorov come up and along with Myers light it up. Armia and Grigs become such an amazing tandem in Rochester and it follows in Buffalo. Enroth and Neuvirth pull off what Crawford/Emery did last year and Stafford scores 30. Hodgson and Ennis have great years, Girgs becomes a consistent scorer and Ott and or Moulson resigns. -
I love this guy's way of communicating with the press, straightforward with good honest answers. I hope to see his lighter-side come out like it did more in the post-deadline conference. Best of all he shows passion, something DR rarely if ever showed. If Lafontaine and Murray had any problems, it would of have to of been on the fact they are both very passionate for what they feel is right.

I loved that quote. I think he has the potential to be a solid 2nd line winger in the right situation, as Murray said, he's a complementary piece. I almost imagine him being sort of a skilled player who's production relies on that of other players. He couldn't lead us to a Cup, but could assist a team in getting there. I'm not sure where he'll go after this season, if he hits it off with Ennis or Hodgson he'd likely be signed at least for a couple years. If not, who knows. As for your estimation, I'd mostly agree. On his own he's nothing more than energy guy on the 3rd line; however with the right line mates, he could be a solid 2nd liner as his time in Tampa Bay showed.

Moulson + McCormick to Minn. Torrey Mitchell + 2014/2016 2nd rounders
thewookie1 replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
2 2nds aren't amazing but they are far better off with Moulson than what Snow got for Vanek. Vanek's trade was a joke lol. So we ended up trading Vanek for: a conditional 2014 1st round draft pick, a 2015 2nd round draft pick, 4 months of Moulson, 2nd rounder in 2014, and 2nd in 2016 -
I like this for 2 reasons No reason not to give him a chance..... Plus, that may mean a Sabre trade is imminent

Halak for Heatley and a 2015 1st rounder, that is what I'm expecting. It would be Halak for a 1st/2nd but taking Heatley frees Minn up to make another move if they wish -

thewookie1 replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
During the offseason I'd go sign Morrow and Ott to add vet leaders back to the team. How many guys do you think will be gone by the end the deadline? I say 5 Halak Moulson Tallinder Erhroff Stewart I think Myers stays -

I think the shrug thing was more of a "well be fine either way" sort of shrug. What is with the Sabres and late season pushes? -
