The point is hes not good enough for the 30th place team in the league yet hes good enough for a team going to the playoffs.

You think he stays with LA for the rest of the year or is heading to the farm?

Gaborik to LA

He's not!
- SABRES 89

so we lose him for nothing ... cool

Does not matter. LA is obviously a better organization. They clearly know what they are doing and the "Sabrez R Idiots"

If they felt McNabb was good enough to be here, he would have been, end of story.

Its not that simple. Teddy wanted more vets. Thus Konopka, Sulzer, Tallinder, D'Agostine, Ellis and not Grigorenko, Armia, McNabb, Psysk, Risto....ect

Gaborik to LA done.

When was Murray the GM of Ottawa?
- ImThatGuy

I was told his expertise was player evaluation. He must have liked him we claimed him

Pearson and a 2nd?

he couldn't stay in our line up because we're stupid. Of course he's not Pronger but he can be a guy that gets you 25-30 points, plays 18 mins a game, be on your second PP and PK, will fight and stand up for teammates.....that PLUS 2 seconds for two D level prospects? Sorry, hate the deal. Hope I'm proved wrong down the road. I'll gladly eat crow.
- Homer

I completely agree!
McNabb did not get his fair share to play, because our organization SUCKS!!!

People had the same h@rd on for Kassian when he was dealt and look at that trade. We all need to relax and let it play out.

IMO, he stays.

How do we know he's going to be in the top 6? He could just be a depth add for them.

Its not about this year.

McNabb wasn't here to start the season either under Rolston.

I hope Teddy goes want the kids to play

THE KIDS DID PLAY.

does no one remember the beginning of the year??

we had tons of kids playing.

we won 4 games.

That may change if Nolan doesn't stay, I don't agree with a team full of kids it's hurts thee development.

Maybe they resign him, gotta have some NHL talent can't ice a team of kids.

buffalo has not said anything to him about a new contract....

Its not about this year.
- Homer

Glad you brought that up. I notice their depth at D (prospects) isn't very good. This could just be two teams addressing dire needs long term.

I never really liked McNabb, his okay but IMO he was to slow, didnt move the puck very well and didnt hit as much as every says he does. Having said that I only saw him a limited number of times so my sample size for saying that isn't that large.

Grigorenko should be trade bait.

so we lose him for nothing ... cool

3 year offer on the table, he won't talk about it now he said.
