Kings and Sabres are in trade talks. A league source says LA will trade with Buffalo. We shall see.

Just to get this conversation back to hockey

Ill throw my hat into that ring. Monday night game against the Browns we were 5-2 (or close to it) I went shirt less with a red and Blue "B" on my chest like superman. it was 28 degrees and Trent throws a pic on the opening play to make sure no one has a good time. I got thrown out 2 plays later for "stumbling" on my way to the bathroom. This was the game he became "Capt. Checkdown"

Sucked but Id still go back

good. i have to imagine it would at least include 1 defenseman because they're hurting for those so badly. it would be something if we traded fowards too.

as long as we don't do something stupid like justin williams for stafford because with that contract i would almost want to keep stafford.

Where can I find the league leaders in hits. It seems like Ott is banging bodies every shift. I'd be interested to see how he ranks in the NHL. This guy's effort is being wasted on this roster.

I'm thinking this has to be a multi-player deal as well. I just don't see the point in trading a guy for a draft pick now when you could probably get a higher one at the deadline (I'll call it the Gaustad theory ) If this story is true then I'm guessing LA made someone available that the Sabres really like.

Way back when wed do an away game every year. One year in Chicago...

Park for the tailgate decent size group with us. Eveything going ok drinking playing games of course every now and again you got bears fans walking by cussing yelling etc ok no big deal its all good fun.

On the walk to the stadium hail of snowballs lots of cussing just being low lifes.

WOrst part have the misfortune of sitting in the last row of the bottom level so you back is to the concourse. Every 5 mins someone slapping you on the back how does that feel and fill in the blank obsenity of being a bills fan. One older guy was the only one who was cool and talked to us and was nice.

We also had gotten into a mini altercation the night before at a bar.

KC fans are great which was odd, even though they are terrible Id thought they would be louder
CIncy fans are ok but like us you dont have championships so you cant talk too much
Raider fans arent that bag.

Sounds about right. Not going to lie when it comes to NFL I would much rather be sitting home in a warm room with the 55 inch, pizza and beer with a crew. I don't need to be walking into work Monday morning with a shiner.

I left that game at the end of the first quarter. Worst game ever. The next day was my second day on my current job. Being late and or hungover wasn't an option. My buddy who left with me is a garbage man for Kenmore. Basically with the drive home, dropping him off, showering and what not. I hopped in bed and turned the TV on just in time to see us miss that kick. He texted me right away saying thank god, in bed at 10:47pm as opposed to 2:14am for that poopty ass game.

they've got a weird lineup honestly. they have a halfway decent balance on their team of superstars and grinders but i just don't see what we'd want. bernier, draft picks or maybe prospects are all i can think of since i don't see us getting/necessarily needing Stoll at the moment.

Just noticed Antoine Winfield is no longer with the Viking s . One of the Bills biggest mistakes in history was letting him go.

I would never go to a road NFL game. Too many pussies want to talk poop when they would never do it one on one.

Toffoli and Pearson come to mind not sure why either would be made available though.

It can't be a goalie, not unless they have a deal in place to ship quick out. Otherwise they would have the most overpaid goalie tandem in hockey history. The only other logical explanation for deal involving Miller and the kings would be a three way deal:

Mystery team gets Miller

LA gets someone from Mystery team

Buffalo gets someone from LA ? total long shot but that's the only way I see it.

To LA??? Quick is having a bad year but to trade him or bernier for Miller seems crazy stupid to me...

Chicago let niemi go after winning a cup i guess
