You have to have a quality goalie between the pipes to win. I'm sure Eichel knows that. Lehner has high potential. Murray knows a lot about him and must feel very confident he'll deliver. 21st was a lot to offer, but other teams were going after Lehner. Maybe a 21st was needed to win the bidding war.

Agreed. 31st pick is a "1st rounder." I would've been content w/ that....I think. Now we have one heck of pick to look forward to tonight, but that's it. Had plans of yelling w/ excitement when Eichel is picked and having a feeling of my gosh what is next! And now, it's watch the Eichel selection and move onto a typical Friday. Yay....

Nah, other GM's are in agreement that Murray just got owned by his uncle.

Peters was smoked in the head a few too many times as a "fighter" in his playing days. Don't take what he says seriously.

That would make what was suppose to be a very happy day even worse. Can't believe this crap just went down.

And this is why they say don't do business w/ family and/or friends!

Sadly, it has already been done.

This thread is already 3 pages long. Really shows how mad/disappointed the board is.

And now we know why he drinks Bud Light. He's beginning to lose it upstairs.

Don't ever make a joke a like that again.

I still have my hopes up! ha ha

Maybe Liger is in on it. He pulled one the other day w/ Eichel.

Every time I refresh this page I hope to see Buffalo was given something else. Still in disbelief.

Ha Was waiting for someone to post that!

Wait for Eichel to say he's returning to BU for another season.

Can the complaint Thursdays thread be opened for an hour?

And to think I was going to be ticked if the Sabres traded their 31st pick for Lehner or Talbot. Lack on the other hand... This trade is beyond bad.

It's the Buffalo News. Not getting my hopes up.

Yeah, nothing to report at this time because they just realized they jacked up.

And now other GM's begin calling Murray to take advantage of him....

And a ZFG has to be thrown in Murray's face for that bad of a trade. No excuse for it.

This is...stupid

:cry: Not liking the sound of that

Out of the trades mentioned, that is the one I'd pull for.

Rumor is Dubnyk wants a very lengthy deal. Talking 8 years! The guy is 29. I say pass on that.
