Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Ah gotcha. I thought you were making a philosophical statement. My bad. No worries. Besides I was just trollin' ya .......... :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Why yes, yes I am. There are several instances in this thread alone where rumor turns to completed deal soon thereafter. Big whoop. You know how many rumors we've seen around here over the years that wind up being nothing? You know how many moves we've seen that have come out of nowhere with no rumors at all? At the same time, distractions are distractions. He's just a headcase. I like the talent, and he does some nifty things. Most of these guys mature out of it given time. Imagine if Tampa had actually traded Drouin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohickie Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Are you implying a casual relationship between rumors and actual moves? Casual? No, they're serious. They're looking at rings together and everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 the Kane deal was definitely a deadline deal. just because it didn't happen the day of doesn't mean it wasn't deadline influenced I don't think that's the case. It was in the works for some time, IMO, and was just finalised sort of near the deadline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brawndo Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Sure, but I am just pointing out the reality of most deadline trades. I can't remember a 'hockey trade' happening on any trade deadline day. March 11, 2003 Chris Gratton and 4th to Phoenix for Danny Briere and a 3rd ( became Sekera) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlueGED Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'm still disappointed we traded him. Yup. When people wax poetic about Regier's value in trades, they never seem to remember that one. We got freaking fleeced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkman Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 Yup. When people wax poetic about Regier's value in trades, they never seem to remember that one. We got freaking fleeced. That being so, most fans hated him because he did t rip people's faces off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at all these non-rumored trades the Sabres are making. :rolleyes: Look at all these rumored trades that are being completed. Where's there's smoke there's fire.

Except all the times when there is as evidenced several times in this thread. I'm not saying there always are rumors, but quite often there are. But don't let that get in the way of you being an . There has been a huge void of anything Sabres related today for the most part, which was and is my original point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robviously Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'm hearing something big is about to go down. (Just kidding. I'm refreshing Twitter every 30 seconds hoping we trade a pending UFA for a draft pick.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what Thwomp! is saying not so much that where's smoke, there's fire, but rather, there isn't likely to be fire at all if there's no smoke.

Except, of course, we know that's not true. Based on, I don't know, the history of forever. Rumors have pretty much no bearing on anything actually happening.

Thwomp! Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 No trades per WGR. So.... no fire. Completely understandable. Everything is fine and dandy with the Sabres. Stay the course!

Robviously Posted March 1, 2017 Report Share Posted March 1, 2017 So.... no fire. Is a trade the fire, or would the fire be trade talks? I thought it'd be the latter but I don't know where we are in this debate. Big whoop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
