For the record:  there is NFW that Florida is giving up Trocheck for McCabe plus a prospect.  It will take Risto or Montour.

McCabe plus a prospect?    I would do McCabe even for Trocheck, and maybe throw in a 5-6-7. 

Trocheck is not the 2C we need, he is a 3C and he will last about  2 more years before he falls offs.  I believe that McCabe is better now and will still be better in 3 years.

IMO Montour is for Sabres fans what Lydman was for my dad

fine, not spectacular, for long stretches on a good team, plays similarly on a bad team and it makes people fed up, then he gets traded to a better team and is viewed as fine if not spectacular again

Lydman was a steady defense first defenseman though, and anyone who didn't like him was an idiot.

From what I'm reading I tend to agree.

I like McCabe and worry that my opinion on Trochek is dated.

But as a general matter of principle, a guy whose floor is as a 50-point 2C is harder to find, and therefore more valuable, than a guy whose ceiling is a 4/5 defenceman.

Whoa whoa whoa!  What Lydman was for your dad?  Way to make everyone feel old man.

If any defenseman is traded other than Montour, I may blow a gasket.  He is terrible, and his only future is becoming part of the Ice Capades.  
 

Bonus reason for wanting him traded...he has a face made for punching.  

Don't hold back now LB, tell us how you really feel about him ?

So Frolik has been traded for 2nd-rounder? ?

****

Unrelated, how high do the offers have to get before you trade Larry?

And how much does that change if you know he has no interest in coming back?

We have 4 RHD's, 1 of which is an RFA at seasons end. We need an upgrade in Net to be sure. We need a 2/3C and could use another RHS RW'er. We can make a move or 2 to upgrade. The real question is, will Botterill make those moves to give the team a real shot at not only running for a playoff spot, but making some noise in the playoffs if they do make it?

And Dahlin too (for 5), though he prefers playing on the left.
