Yandle >>> Myers. Their 1st could be top 5.

You can send me a thank you card in the mail when Prince is traded to Buffalo in the coming days.

Now that Darcy is in Arizona, perhaps he can influence getting a few of his own players. to AZ: Myers, Hodgson, Armia, Stafford to BUF: Yandle, 2015 1st - Buffalo then would need to add cap space. Some options would be signing Steve Ott or Dany Heatley trading for Vinny L, Patrick Marleau, Kris Letang, Sergei Gonchar etc.....

I think Murray also mentioned the trade involved a winger....so probably Stewart who was nearly sent there at the deadline. O'Reilly is very good but overrated IMO. Steve Lloyd @TSNSteveLloyd · 2h Despite Legwand signing, the #Sens are still trying to get something else done via trade.

I copied it from the Sens section on the HFBoards. It was in his talk after the Legwand signing. The other day, Shane Prince was pulled out of Sens development camp and was spoken to by Bryan Murray. He is from the Rochester area, 21 year old LW .... and had expressed interest in a trade previously. I'll toss out a few ideas.. Stewart for Shane Prince + Chris Driedger Stewart + 3rd for Shane Prince + Mark Stone Stewart + Pysyk + 2nd for Cody Ceci + Shane Prince Stewart + Hodgson + Adam + 2nd for Curtis Lazar + Shane Prince Stewart + Hodgson + Mitchell for Chaisson + Wiercioch + Prince + 2nd

Murray added this about potential additional Senators transactions: We continue to talk, we've had discussions about a trade that has gone on for a period of time now, it's just a matter of if we can get satisfaction both ways. Stewart??? Tim Murray hand picking a prospect or 2?

Why would you want to offer sheet ROR and forfeit multiple 1st ..... when you can just trade for him???

Now that Legwand has signed with the Senators.....perhaps Murray calls Steve Ott. IMO Murray was waiting to hear back from Legwand. O'Reilly for Hodgson + Grigorenko + BUF 2015 2nd + throw in (ex. Luke Adam) ? I think that's pretty close. O'Reilly + COL 2015 1st for Myers + BUF 2015 2nd is also very interesting.

except Reinhart has played over 200 games in junior right? and how many had Grigorenko played? Not nearly as many.

Seems to me like they are waiting for Legwand to pick his team. When he does, if it is the Sabres....Ott signs with his #2 choice. (Flyers? Leafs?) If Legwand signs somewhere else, Murray calls Steve and signs him.

Tomorrow I want to see something similar to one of these below (Murray you raised expectations!) Hodgson + Stewart + 2nd to OTT for C.Lazar + S. Prince Hodgson + Grigorenko + Enroth + 2015 1st (STL) to WPG for Evander Kane + Ondrej Pavelec (Tank Commander) + 2015 1st (WPG) Myers + 2nd to DET for Nyquist/Mantha + 1st 3rd in 2015 to PHI for Vinny L. + 2nd in 2015 Ott signed to a 1 year 4 million deal for deadline trade bait again (probably unrealistic, so 2 year deal)

Lets make it fun: Hodgson + Stewart + Grigorenko + 2015 2nd for Lazar + Prince + 2015 1st

Bruce Garrioch @SunGarrioch · 7h "We sure could use one more NHL centre," says Murray. #Sens Stewart + Hodgson would make sense for both teams....just depends on the return. I'd ask for Lazar but doubt we could get him.

Bruce Garrioch @SunGarrioch · 7h Murray says he is in the process of trying to get another deal done. Prospect in the package. Deal is close but not done. #Sens

Saw this on another forum..... "Anyone else see this French radio station citing a deal is being finished between us and Ottawa sending out Hodgson and Stewart?" Anyone know about this?? We'd like Lazar please....

Lets get on the horn right now shall we!! GET IGINLA!!!!!!! Butler is Tim Kennedy on D basically.

Moulson...barely

Post what lineups you'd like to see when 2016 rolls around! E.Kane - McDavid - P. Kane .......... Absolutely terrifying Zacha - Reinhart - Ennis Lemieux - Stastny - Girgensons Foligno - Boyle - Deslauriers Myers - Yandle Ristolainen - Zadorov Pysyk - McCabe Goalie? Ullmark maybe (Boyle, Stastny signed via UFA) (Hodgson, Grigorenko, Armia traded in packages to acquire E. Kane, K. Yandle) (Stafford, Stewart dealt for picks/prospects at trade deadline) (McDavid, Zacha drafted via BUF, NYI 1sts) (Pat Kane signed via UFA. 8 years 88 million, + Pegula bonus off the books 20 million and minority ownership of the Bills ssshhh! ) I feel this lineup is a great mix of high end skill, physical presence and desire.

Jarome Iginla...... one can dream. He was Reinhart's favorite player. Who better to learn from? 1 year 12 million. Top line minutes with Reinhart and then pick's his team at deadline for Cup run. Sabres retain salary, receive 2015 1st in the 20's.....everyone wins!

I'd like to snag Brian Boyle. He is someone I would give the longer-term deal to. The guy is huge at 6'7. Hes good on face-offs, plays with heart, sells himself out to block shots. Just a great team player. Makes me think of a 1980 US Olympian type. If we are good in 2-3 years, guys like him are so crucial to team success in the playoffs. He also has a decent pair of hands. A dream world would have us landing Iginla for 1 year 10 million and selling him on top line ice time and leading the young kids. Then we deal him at the deadline to a team of his choosing. (1st round pick return required!) Obviously that is very unlikely to happen. Reinhart's favorite player growing up was Jarome Iginla. B. Boyle for 4 years 18 million. Ott for 3 years 12 million Gionta 2 years 8 million Orpik 2 years 7 million Moulson 1 year 12 million : Trade at deadline! (to team who plays the most games against NYI after the deadline)* If Tim Murray is actually able to sign some of the above names to steep $$$ 1 year contracts (as I'm sure he would want to) and then retain salary and trade them at the deadline for assets, he is a genius. Especially if that happens to be Moulson.

Gagner sent to Arizona

I hope TB buys him out....I'd claim him. Hes still young and a fresh start could turn him into a 70-80 point player. He could also help lure Kane here as they were a dynamic duo for the London Knights. Great chemistry.

Leafs: Stafford + Ruhwedel for David Clarkson + Dion Phaneuf + 2015 1st Clarkson's contract is so brutal for what he brings that Leafs would have to forfeit their 1st to move him. Jets: Hodgson + Grigorenko + 2nd for Ondrej Pavelec + Evander Kane + 2015 1st Oilers: Tyler Myers + Drew Stafford + 2nd + 3rd for Jordan Eberle + Sam Gagner +1st

Some folks are always right..... oh well!

Crazy prediction: Leafs sign Ehrhoff. (Didn't he say he wanted to be in the east) That way his family is still close. Sabres then trade for Dion Phaneuf.
