These people want to tank but they want to win at the same time, that's ok because the savior McDavid will save this team..................... in 5 years

They want their cake . And want to eat it too. Everyone is smarter than the GM in Buffalo . No matter who he is.

Yup true. He hasn't been helping his case by totally sucking either.

My beef is with Gionta. While I appreciate his tankability, watch closley. He wont go after loose pucks and when he has the puck he wont put himself between a defender and the boards or cut in the middle. He just gives the puck up.

I have noticed the same thing !

How do you know what he was offered elsewhere though ? How do you know we overpaid ? 5 Million nowadays for a 20 to 30 goal scorer is about the going rate. We could have Semin for 7.5 !

I don't relly care that they gave him that contract. He is terrible we needed to reach the cap floor. All good with me. He will be gone before 5 years.

I found out something last night that might ruffle some on this site.

He's not saving this team, take your blinders off.

Neither is Matt Moulson. Yet for whatever reason he can't be criticized.

When was Matt Moulson at his best? Playing with John Tavares, where was he drafted?

Go follow your boy Myers around, talk about doing no wrong

This current team? Absolutely not, but I seriously doubt Tim Murray does nothing to improve the team after he drafts a guy like McDavid.

He on purposely set the the team up just to have a shot at him, doubt he squanders the opportunity to build a contender around him.

Shoot, could use a good ruffling(yea poor wording)

Canes want Myers so they can trade Sekera, I heard Myers and Hodgson

Interesting. Skinner? Staal?

Not surprised at all (well except for the canes part, that does). what's being offered in return. I know you mentioned Staal a while back but the NTC is basically a trade killer.

Staal not Skinner, still waiting to hear the rest and no it's not Semin.

Sabres seem to do will trading with the Kings

Justin Bailey just signed his ELC

I'm not a Myers fan and can care less if they trade him however, if you are rebuilding doesn't make sense to deal him.

Considering the Canes are in the running for McDavid, I doubt they attempt to sabotage that

I think moving Staal + for a package involving Cody Hodgson helps them in that regard. Sure they get myers back but if 89 is right and they deal sekera, overall the team gets substantially worse.

Chris Stewart will be the first to leave.

Teams want Sekera so if they get Myers there will be a few teams that they can "steal " from.

Which Staal?

So are we moving him to wing? Or are we going to have 8 centers

We arn't aquiring either Staal for Hodgson+ ever in any world.
