Peter Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Let's all see what vanek gets compared to moulson to see if we got fair market value I think I read a second and a prospect on twitter. Wow. Edited March 5, 2014 by Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 ... what delete? It was a ha, ha, since the thread was started before the trade was officially announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRH Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Vanek brought a 2nd plus a prospect. If Moulson brings a 1st or two other picks, I'd say we made out nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kishoph Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I told people 3-5 years before we see playoffs leaning more towards 5 Yet people are surprised that Ted Nolan hasn't jumped at the offer to coach this team for 3 years ? It may be an NHL coaching job, but after the Sabres cut him lose in 3 years with a losing record, where's he going to go then ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Not sure what the griping is about in here. TM got what he could get for Moulson. Clearly it was a buyers' market this year for rental forwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly it was a buyers' market this year for rental forwards. I still don't know what he got, but there was something of value to having the next four months to negotiate with him.

LGR4GM Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 So Vanek was traded for a conditional 1st, a 2nd in 2015 and some sort of Picks??? and you could say we got 4 months of Moulson as well. Depending on those picks could be a good haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 I still don't know what he got, but there was something of value to having the next four months to negotiate with him. Yeah, I kind of think the chance to resign Moulson is better than a mid-round pick who will almost certainly never make the roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueBlueGED Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Not sure what the griping is about in here. TM got what he could get for Moulson. Clearly it was a buyers' market this year for rental forwards. I'd say some combination of unrealistic expectations and dissatisfaction with the direction the team is taking to rebuild, a feeling that just gets reinforced as the moves are made to take the team in that direction. Perhaps another part is that our most exciting moves were made in advance of the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGR4GM Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Sounds like a 2nd and something else for Moulson. This would be in line with the prices today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trettioåtta Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 We took on $2.5 million salary for a worse player. This must be for more than a 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 We took on $2.5 million salary for a worse player. This must be for more than a 2nd Since Pegula took over we've turned into the league's salary dump. We take on everyone else's overpaid problems and retain salary on most trades out.
