Who was 32 years old at the time of the trade. Not a comparable player in age or ability to O'Reilly nor is Grigorenko ever going to be as good as Forsberg even though they were only taken one spot apart inn the same draft.

Doesn't matter. Washington didn't know Forsberg ' s future just like we don't know Grigorenko ' s.

Would you do Sam Reinhart straight up for O'Reilly?

Millsie just left the game after getting run into by his own back checker. Right knee seemed to be the problem.

Same here

He like Gringo were touted as top 5 picks.

Yeah, for part of the year Gringo was top 5

Forsberg had 34 points in 47 games last year in the AHL. Similar numbers to Grigorenko

If Forsberg were on this team he'd probably still be in the A

Had him going 5 to Toronto on June 19th.

I know, it's just so ridiculous and hypocritical. The odds of something bad happening to you young from smoking are small. The commercial way overshoots the mark. Then they are followed by alcohol an fast food commercials, as if those are just fine.

I appreciate a person that pays attention.

What doesn't matter that Erat was 32 at the time of that terrible trade?

No, I wouldn't trade Reinhart straight up even though I'm not a big Reinhart fan. That doesn't mean he won't be a good pro.

So Big Z has an attitude problem ?

Maybe a drinking problem?

People are assuming it's Gringo going to the AVS if they make a move for ROR, what names have been mentioned.

Pysyk.

Which I wouldn't be fond of.

Kid's 19 I would hope not but it's something that's going on with him.

Not that it should be a surprise to anyone but it sounds like the #Avs have scouts at the Sabres game and vice versa.

I mentioned him or McCabe but that was just me talking, I haven't heard any names mentioned.

You seem to be an all numbers/stats guy and not so much how a guy plays and his ability. Heart and intangibles don't seem to have any relevance to you either.

Oh and btw, it's McCabe, not McNabb

My friend I wish I knew, as of now hasn't been much talk of players, just that the Sabres have an interest in ROR.

19 year olds can have drinking problems. Especially having Canada right here and being a Sabre.

Im not entirely sure what he could give him to make it work much less what they'd actually want.

@MikeChambers: It appears #Avs D Stefan Elliott will play for Jan Hejda. No Hejda in warmup”

Heavy scratch...gotta protect that trade bait ..oh now its a day to day injury, boo

Usually ability equates to better numbers and vice versa.

My point is that Forsberg didn't tear up the AHL. He came out of nowhere this season on a stable team and is looking great.

The defense looks better with Pysyk and McCabe. I wish Zadorov was in, we'd be seeing a preview of 5/6 of our future D.

I wonder how this Big Z problem will play out, does Murray listen to Nolan if Nolan thinks there is a problem and move him ? or do they send big Z down and let him work out his problems in the AHL. Can they send him down?
