How about a trade with LA? Richards, Toffoli and someone like Andy Andrehoff for Hodgson, Stafford and Ruhwedel. LA gets rid of Richards and gets a d-man they definitely could use right now due to injuries.

Better offer more then that crap if you think the Kings will move Toffoli.

The Sabres will never get Toffoli for our junk and a 6 or 7th Dman even if we take on Richards' contract by giving them Hodgson's contract

Why can't he do it this year ? I think it's the fall from the "IT" guy on the team. After Pommer and Van where gone he was stated as the #1 center. He lost it to Nolans fav . Bad tude by his part if thats the real reason.

Lots of speculation there. You don't know what his attitude is like. Why can't he do it this year? I have no clue. Still a terrible idea to buy him out. Especially when you will have all that dead cap money for a decade. No thanks.

If you mean Hodgson, he does have a bad attitude and is negative, they aren't a fan of him but as of now are stuck with him. He still doesn't get it.

I don't like the Moulson deal, or the Hodgson deal; I'd like Fowler deal so where does that put me?

Interesting stat #2

The best offensive player during Myers tenure here had 73 points.

Never have we had a top 15 scorer over the past 6 years

Our offense has never been better than 9th and 10th coincidentally his 2 best offensive years.

Since, it has ranked 17th, 23rd, 30th, and coming soon....30th

Interesting stat 3:

Erik Karlsson has never played with a player who has scored more than 84 points - and has led his team in scoring twice - yet he has scored at a virtual ppg game pace in three of his 6 seasons.

blame Darcy for Stafford he was duped, you can't see that Stewart fits in here? it's taken Stafford how many years here and he still sucks.
- SABRES 89



Stafford had a better season that year than Stewart is having even now. This team will be far better off when somebody else gives him long term deal.

Moulson produces what is the problem with his deal, 5 mill is good for a player like him. What is all the hype with Fowler? because some French guy says we might move Myers for him? screw that I know better.

Stafford also looked like he "fit in" he had 31 goals in 62 games. Stewart has shown to be inconsistent in past years and up until this hot streak he was mediocre.

And is regarded as one of the best in the game because of that
Not sure the correlation?

Defend him all you want, Stewart brings more to this team then Stafford ever will.

Nobody's defending Stafford. We're saying the wise move here is to show both the door.

Moulson produces with a great center, we'll see if he does without one, still waiting.. and he is getting up there in age so 5 million a year's main purpose was to suck up needed salary space. Fowler is a a solid dman who there was reportedly another player involved and I think you are selling Fowler short. He would probably add something to the PP because Myers doesn't.

I think Stafford would fit in well with the Islanders.
