Bmwolf21 Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 That list looks like a lot of guys I wouldn't want in our lineup regularly, but wouldn't mind seeing as depth players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Wing Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Hockey Buzz, mainly Eklund, is getting old! Enough already with this clown! I actually prefer Spector's Hockey web site. He seems to lean on some reliable sources prior to posting whatever rumors are flying around. One of the most surprising nuggets from his site today is that Biron could go to Pittsburgh for Ryan Malone. Seems a little far-fetched, but if it goes down I would not be shocked. Malone could serve as the back-up plan in the event that either of the following happen: (1) Connolly is truly not ready, or (2) We lose Drury or Briere in the off-season.

Kapanen, Chouinard or Boucher would good pickups. Downey is more of an enforcer. If anyone has ever seen one punch on youtube that pretty much sums up Aaron Downey.

apuszczalowski Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 And how do the Sabres fit these players under the cap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deluca67 Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Don't teams put players on the wire to see who is interested? Then they recall the waivers and try to work out a trade? Does the new CBA allow for that? Berard demanded a trade. tsn and spector are reporting these names now too. He makes $2.5 and has played in only 10 games.

I agree that Spector is more reliable. But why would PITT want a goalie when they have two good ones? Doesn't make sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFinkle Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 Don't teams put players on the wire to see who is interested? Then they recall the waivers and try to work out a trade? I think they are on waivers for 48 hours before they can be recalled. Not positive though, but fairly certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two or less Posted February 26, 2007 Report Share Posted February 26, 2007 I agree that Spector is more reliable. But why would PITT want a goalie when they have two good ones? Doesn't make sense to me. Biron for Malone isn't Eklund... it was reported today in the Ottawa Sun. http://www.ottawasun.com/Sports/Hockey/200...667720-sun.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the new CBA allow for that? He makes $2.5 and has played in only 10 games. No. While a player is on waivers any team may claim him and the waiving team has no recourse to keep the player. If the player's compensation exceeds a threshold, the player has to clear waivers to come back UP as well as to be sent down. If the player is claimed on the way back up, the waiving team has to pick up 1/2 the player's salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluery has hit the skids lately, and is still a young guy. That's probably the reason for the rumor. Whether the rumor is even remotely close to being true, though, is a whole other debate.
