That Aud Smell Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Interesting find. I would not mind the Sabres trying to talk contract extension with Myers NOW. This move wouldn't hurt. very interesting -- how on earth did you find that? it actually makes good sense. find a big, capable, stay-at-home guy to pair with myers -- give the young guy the comfort and confidence he needs to go out and be a norris finalist. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they do have to wait 8 days to start talking about an extension with Myers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanny Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I know the guys word is pretty meaningless, but as long as we're debating a rumor from some guy named "Fat Bob" or whatever, per hockeybuzz: TSN is reporting Robyn Regehr has been asked to waive his No Trade to go to Buffalo... The Sabres may be sending prospects...also heard Boyes name mentioned... http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Eklund/Jeff-Carter-Has-Been-Traded-to-Columbus-FLYES-NOT-DONE--Sabres-Regehr/1/36576 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesportsbuff Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Maybe Regehr plays with Myers, but I think they want Weber to model his game after RR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom webster Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Wow, that's terrible. Adam is the only C in our system and has a pretty good ceiling and we need that 1st round pick since we already traded our 2nd. As others have stated, this probably isn't the deal. However, as to your point about Adam, the Sabres aren't convinced he has the wheels to play center. Ruff said it, now Kevin Devine said it.

james duncan Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Maybe Regehr plays with Myers, but I think they want Weber to model his game after RR. If that's the thinking, the move makes even more sense--it helps two of the kids on your roster immediately and possibly helps you re-sign one of them long-term.

wonderbread Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I can see them trading out of the first but as Darcy would be handicapping the Center position by moving either Roy or Adam. I can see them moving a D Man and a pick. Calgary is dumping salary. By adding Reghyr Darcy is basically using the cap increase to add a piece. Which leads me to believe that they have had a plan in the works. I don't trust anyone name "Fat..." Nor do I trust anyone named "Ace". JMO.

I'd take that critique more seriously if the Sabres weren't the same team that thought it could win a Stanley Cup with Connolly and Roy as their top two centers.

shrader Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'm pretty sure you are correct. Can't wait to hear some details. Regehr is the kind of D-man we need. And the kind we thought we were getting with Morissonn. I agree. So much of the talk around here lately about d-men has centered around more offensively abled d-men, but I'd say the team needs a physical stay at home guy far more. Regehr would be a good fit for that role. I'm a bit worried about his age (31) though. He's getting closer to that point where he could break down. The two year deal does comfort that concern a bit though. Edit: And when we're speculating on terms, I could see this being the 1st round pick + a prospect, but we also get a 2nd rounder back in return. And also, I'm surprised no one has tried to make a joke about Regier trading for Regehr yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloSoldier2010 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 This is somewhat pleasing news. Hopefully we don't send too much the other way, but if adam is indeed being shopped then i can safely assume that the sabres have already talked to some centers around the league. This could prove to be a very big first step in turning this team into a contender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Backyard Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I think, if this goes through, it's going to be for draft picks, or a developing prospect. 4+ million is a lot for this guy, and we may be helping Calgary clear some cap space. We shouldn't have to give up a lot to get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullwinkle Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I would be outraged if their first pick was in the works for Regehr. What I hear is that we're trading Kaleta. I guess we'll see soon...if Regehr accepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloSoldier2010 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 You might want to think that one over a bit. Which 2nd round pick would we be sending them anyway? They could EASILY trade next years second rounder. If the flames are that desperate to clear cap space, i don't see why not. Connoly is coming off an injury in the playoffs, and his role is clearly different than the Connolly that got the inflated 4.5 mil contract. Edit: Like i said, I'm just getting excited, and it's just one of MANY possibilities. Also, to the possibility the prospect of Luke Adam moving for this, can one infer the sabres front office has talked to other teams for centers? Have they talked to Brads agent? i cant see them moving adam unless they have an ace in the hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
