I just don't like Kane as a person. Guy seems like the cancerous growth of a locker room Someone recently included Stafford in the list with Zagrapan for draft pick busts... enough said

In pretty much the same number of games Skinner got 10 more points than Hodgson. Ignoring the fact he played on a better team, with better line-mates and with Staals getting the toughest match-ups this is your trade Myers, Top 10 pick, Prospects for 10 point increase to a player

Credit for meddling with the players heads? Probably using some combination of Jedi mind trick and blackmail? I don't think so (For Tank's benefit - i'm being sarcastic :P)

They're missing their best defenceman and forward. Plus they haven't looked great this tournament

3 goals in 3 minutes. 4 goals in 25 minutes wow.

In fairness, I think a fanbase is entitled to be entitled when, from my understanding, every free agent wants to sign in Toronto

The damage that the league would incur, including some legal issues i imagine, if it was found to be tampering with the draft means it is just never going to be worth them doing so. It would be impossible to grow the game. All anyone would know about hockey was the league decides where the players play - thus making it a joke. On your point more directly, I agree and it was started by the fact the Pens were going under and going to move when suddenly they land Crosby and the franchise is turned around

Girgenson - Hodgson - Stewart Foligno - Ennis - Stafford Moulson- Reinhart - Gionta McCormick - Larsson - Kaleta Mitchell Flynn

So we're getting Kane and Toews at the end of this season?? Sweet

Vanek turned down 64 million and 6 months later settled for under 20

Why?

2016 2nd rounder is a cheap price. I like the pick up

Thumbs up

One thread I would really like would be a news thread - where just headlines (or confirmed tweets) are posted and no discussion. That way if you miss something it is easy to get back on track with what has happened. But this mainly comes from the fact I am a few hours out of sync with you guys so generally miss large chunks of news/updates etc. But I can see why this might be less of an issue (and in fairness 99% of the time i do just wade through every post in the threads) I would even welcome a rumours thread, where again, just rumours from credible tweets are posted so it is easy to keep track of what is happening - but i can understand why this might be even more unwelcome But perhaps these 'improvements' would not even be suggested if the threads were not as cluttered?

I don't really understand this move. I understand we are tanking, but we just got even worse. Who is playing defense now? Myers is our number 1 - does that make Pysyk our number 2? I guess if Ehrhoff made it clear he didn't want to be here and the risk of trading him and him retiring was too great or something

Guy says he tries to emulate Toews. I like this pick

I'm actually really psyched we got Reinhart. Despite leaning towards Bennet all season. Reinhart seems happy to be a Sabre and is not flashy by the perfect guy who can carry this team. We needed a work horse and we got one. Girgensons can be our energy guy and Reinhart can be our backbone. Also takes fan pressure off Grigo, which I think will be good for his development. Does Reinhart make the Sabres this year?

Let's hope he dropped because of his size and will one day be St Louis

Hodgson and Reinhart could make a nice 1-2 tandem. I think they both have good hockey IQ and could make pretty nice passes to one another. If Foligno finally returned to playing the power/banger role to give these guys space/dig the puck out of the corner it would be a sweet line

We have had 17 1st/2nd rounders in the 4 years. I think we can risk a third on getting a goalie

I thought we still had our 4th rounder :/ Arizona gets him

If Karlsson is there at the end of the third, i hope we grab him

Are the big trades so far Garrison Kesler Neal Have I missed any? Dodgy internet combined with no access to phone 3G means i am very out of the loop

Both Nolan and Murray have spoken very highly of Myers

I'll put this here because it doesn't really fit anywhere else: https://twitter.com/Hope_Smoke/status/482558109370421249 Anaheim and Vancouver had a deal for Kesler worked out but Kesler's family nixed it. That now explains Anaheim's bizarre behaviour at the deadline by jettisoning a top 6 plaer and not doing anything else
