I think that Larsson, Pysyk and Flynn are the most underrated prospects in the system. It's hard to judge how valuable a strong two way player that may not have the offensive upside as others ...Especially on a team that doesn't score as it is. I'd be sad to see any of them go. I go to nearly all the rochester games and Johan plays in all situations and never makes a dumb play.

The media can be blinded by a 1.5 PPG minor/junior player

Also Pysyk should 100% be in buffalo, still confused by that but i hope the numbers work out for him after the deadline and he gets the call

1) I saw absolutely nothing remarkable in any game that Larssonhas played with the big club.

2) Who undervalues Pysyk? Sure, he and McCabe could play up here right now. But why rush them into this mess? Let them get some more time learning the pro game. The same goes with all of our prospects down there. We should not see Grigs or Armia up here either.

Wait...What ?

Mike Richards on waivers.
- Buffalo-Sabres

The Sabres take him, no question, right?

I like Mike Richards, just not his contract.

I doubt the Sabres touch that contract.......................... but the LEAFS will

But we need a high cap contracts, right? (With Stewart, Stafford moving on)

Nolan confirmed your entire paragraph #2 in a recent interview.

If he retires early, then the Kings get penalized then (similar to Ehrhoff), so I dont see the Sabres not wanting to add him.

I agree, it's just that's to long of a contract left.

I would personally, but the contract is a nightmare.

Whats the difference between getting your ass handed to you in the minors as opposed to the NHL?

Leafs mangement are cutting people off in traffic as we speak to get the rink to claim Richards.

It could handcuff them in the future

He might f-our tank up though.

I don't think a Mike Richards could fix this mess on his own.

His cap hit is 5.75M until 2020. That could scare off a few GMs.

1) That's not always a bad thing in regards to two way forward. Also no one looks great so it's not bad bad thing to be unnoticed (this year at least)lol

2) Good point, Wrong word. I guess i meant he gets overlooked bc of risto and zads but imo hes in that same class. Agree with Grigos and armia just nervous that due to the deadline they may get the nod if stew and staf leave

I couldn't stand more then 2 seconds of that morons voice.

With him at #1 centre you would see so many guys suddenly fit in roles that benefit them.

Correct, only using one hand to flip people off instead of two.

It is a completely different scenario in the minors. Rochester had a tough stretch but they will absolutely compete for a playoff spot. The difference is that we don't want to beat the tar out of our prospects like the Oilers have. The best thing that these guys can do right now is figure it out together. I still think that team is going to get it together (if it hasn't already).

Also, if nothing else they might be better than 3 or 4 guys that are here and we really don't want any of that right now.

would you have a #1 line of

Moulson/Richards/Ennis

Then how would the rest shake out?
