Oh man that leaves so few options to anyone who fits that description. Mathews is in the Eichel realm of potential talent and would be an immediate contributor beginning next season. It's not as if Mathews is a guy that needs a year or two in Rochester. I guess I would take a look at it if we're talking about OEL and a 1st from Zona. But I doubt Arizona has the depth on D to move OEL. Maybe a Tyler Seguin from Dallas? There aren't very many names I'd be interested in enough to move Mathews for. And you post this at the same time as me. Nice. I just can't see Arizona making that move. But yes, I would probably make that deal.

If it's a top 3 pick it's almost untouchable. A 4-7 pick and it better be a damn good roster player coming back. Even the 4-7 picks have a relatively high likelihood of being top 6 forwards/top 4 D within a years time and come relatively cost controlled for 7 years.

We don't?

They're not finishing in the bottom 3...... I'd say we're maybe 50/50 to end up in 5th from the bottom now that ROR is out. Toronto, Edmonton and Columbus are just horrible teams and I can't see them passing us. Throw in our easy schedule down the stretch and I'll be shocked if we end up in the bottom 3.

Man I hope Liger makes it back for the deadline. His immediate overreactions to Sabres trades bring me great entertainment.

Oh my god, this is amazing!!!! Ok, this is hilarious. About a month ago I wanted this team to pack it in for a draft pick. that, I completely forgot how much fun it is winning. Wow, I love this group of players. Who knows how it shakes out but I have a good feeling about the next decade of Sabres hockey. What a fun game tonight.

Noice.

Of course he was. #Racism

Oh ya I know. It was snark for Ducky's comments that Kane is a 3rd line player. He does much more than a typical 3rd line player. -
Thought this was a relevant tweet from the NHL. Kane 4th in the entire NHL in TOI amongst forwards. We love running our third line out there. https://twitter.com/PR_NHL/status/700419562911752193/photo/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

Yes 'Maintenance Day'. I'm not buying anything less than 2 weeks before the trade deadline :flirt:

Excellent. I like him much more on their wing then McGinn. -
:flirt:

True. But again, the point was the core is rotting somewhere else. This point agrees with that. Pommers still has 3 years remaining on his deal paying him $5.6 mil per season. He's scored 7 goals so far this year. Ouch. Edit - Not Molson bad, but still pretty bad.

Minny reminds me of the Sabres post Briere/Drury until 2013. A middling team trading for veterans trying to make a push but usually ending right around the playoff line. I realize how terrible the last two seasons are but I'll trade those for the next 10 of ours vs the next 10 for Minny. Also, this link shows who has what picks for the upcoming draft. Minny doesn't have second, third or fifth. Vanek and Pommers are major pieces to that core. I was responding to your point about none of those teams having as bad of seasons as we've had the last two years. My point is that none of the teams that have the old core players are doing anything but spinning their tires. Save for Nashville (but Goose isn't really a huge part of that team).
-
Although that's true. Are you more optimistic of the Sabres core/prospects going forward today or Minnesota? Vancouver?

I thought it would be move back one more year if he doesn't play the 10 NHL games. I could be wrong on that. Either way, I agree that he belongs in Roch. -
No. But the Islanders were terrible when Vanek was actually on the team.

Oh it is. I am just curious. Interesting the swing in positioning right around that 80 point mark.
-
Hahhahaha, ok, well humor me and assume we round up to the 80. Is it about a 50/50 shot of finishing in the bottom 5?
