    We should be looking to sign Stamkos to a two year deal that’s undoubtedly an overpayment. He’s not going to be a 40/40 guy here, but we need his legitimacy in the locker room and this fanbase needs something to rally behind. The Athletic gave his projection at 3x6. Offer him 2x9. Win and he’ll finish out his career here. 

    24 million for 2 years would likely be his number for buffalo

    So let’s see. We got Lindy Ruff. We bought out one of our top 6 forwards and traded for a guy who I’ve never heard of. Sounds like more of the same in Buffalo. I was excited for 2 months after Lindy was hired. Now I’m not 

    On the bright side you can put some good money down on the Stanley Cup winner when Skinner signs with that team

    Excellent signing a guy that only played 1 season healthy out of 15 years is music to my ears hopefully it's long term.

    To be frank I’m concerned for the franchise’s future at this point. No one will waive or sign here of note. Even when we state that we are trying to win nowadays. Before people say you need to win; well it’s hard to if no one wants to come here unless they are drafted by us to begin with. It would effectively mean we will never escape the basement because we’ll never get the support to get into the playoffs and have to forever rely on rookies only for players to leave upon reaching their maturity.

     

    Start winning problem solved

    Was that reported, or is it your assessment/guess?

     

    "Generational" is a bit strong here.  Datsyuk was a great player, to be sure -- one of the best in the world for quite a few years and one of Russia's all-timers.

     

    Good range of outcomes here.  I like Krebsie and want to see him at age 25 after 2 years of being coached by Lindy.  It's very possible he could develop into a credible 3C by then.

    OTOH, I despair of his hands and I have a hard time seeing him producing offense in the NHL.

    He changed the game of hockey without him deking wouldn't be where it is today

    He basically invited the Alley-oop of hockey 

    And let's not forget probably the greatest 2 way player
