Andrew Amerk Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Stop rationalizing why he might come to Buffalo. Buffalo is the Siberia of the NHL. He's not interested. Didn’t his dad or Uncle play for the Bandits? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Crotch Posted May 19, 2018 Report Share Posted May 19, 2018 Didn’t his dad or Uncle play for the Bandits? Only for, like, 24 years. (uncle) ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 Clearly he's waiting until Seattle joins the league, he will then get plucked in the expansion draft (after signing a 4 year deal with snow) and snow will also give them something to take JT, because that's how snow works, and I also want Seattle to be good right off the bat. Mostly because I'm drinking and wanna rile you guys up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 Trotz has been named Tavares' next head coach It's certainly going to help convince him, but I don't know that this is over yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Posted June 21, 2018 Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 He is coming to play for his favourite team, the sabres. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted June 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2018 @AGrossNewsday Also, not a done deal, and still a fluid situation, but sounds like Isles may have good news on John Tavares as well. Isles beat reporter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 NYI may keep him but they need some work to really be good. Closer than Buffalo is though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted June 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Yeah, but who also paired that up with sudden and extreme levels of competence arriving in Isles management? I know we'd all anticipated (and hoped for) Garth Snow's inexplicable tenure to continue. I'm not surprised at all the NYI did everything and anything they could to retain him.

Radar Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Per 4th Period the NYI offered 8/88 to him. That means other teams have to offer 12.5 yr. or more to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eleven Posted June 23, 2018 Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 That means other teams have to offer 12.5 yr. or more to match. Or the opportunity to actually do something with his career, which NYI cannot offer, Lamiorello or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
