maybe they dont have players to complain about or hate. Stafford give blues fans an instant most hated player

They really should fully commit then and ask for Leino.

When dreaming up trades the other team's needs are irrelevant.

What could the Blues need that they can (Besides Miller)
A) Use
B) Fit within the cap

without giving up anything on their roster.

no. its basically a late first for miller, unless its a 3 team trade and we move Halak to Long Island.....MPS is garbage.

IMO the Sabres should be on the phone with Washington in regards to moving Miller.

My sources tell me the talks don't relate to players, rather it's front office personnel.

The Sabres are looking to acquire St. Louis' Executive Vice President for Business Development.

Are you all ignoring the fact that Kulikov is obviously the centerpiece of any upcoming deal? He is THE domino.

That seems like the last thing they need though?

They are pretty set at forward right now.

unless it was Ott +, but then again there is the Salary cap to deal with.

Miller (30-40% retained), Stafford, Grigo, and MIN's 2nd rounder


Halak, Berglund, Paajarvi, and a 1st

- JVince11


I highly doubt Buffalo accepts something like that !

Miller is a UFA with a NTC in a saturated trade market.

If Buffalo prices themselves out, they are left with nothing.

MPS is 22 years old. Still plenty of time for him.

Halak to long Island for what?

That leaves Buffalo with Enroth and Hackett as goalies.

Halak is not getting much on the trade market. Also a UFA and has lesser values than Miller.

Since Ott wears the "C" which stands for countdown till traded. Could be happening .

Id like to see him resigned in Buffalo but I suspect Ott and Moultson are more in demand then Miller right now.

MPS is garbage, doesnt matter his age.

Halak to Long Island for a Pick

and yes I am fine with enroth and hackett as our goalies for 20 games.
