STRYPER does an unreal version of Carry on Wayward Son.
- SABRES 89



Stryper is unreal, period. Michael Sweet is one of the best vocalists out there in that style. Saw them last summer. Been a fan since Soldiers Under Command.

Hey guys just got off phone with my buddy who works at FNC. He told me Pegula and Murray are going to make a heavy push for #1 overall. Players being thrown in are pretty significant. As I always say when relaying what I hear from him, please take with a grain of salt as he isn't always 100% accurate so don't shoot the messenger! The offer as he has heard:

Edmonton:
#1 Overall

Buffalo:
Pysyk
Zadorov/Ristolainen (choice of 1)
Foligno
#2 Overall
NYI 1st

First time I have talked to him since leaving WNY or I would have said something sooner. Again he is not the best "source" but he has gotten some things right in the past, grain of salt please!

It's not speculation
I know FOR A FACT that Enroth will return here if offered a decent deal, and a chance to at leat compete for the starting goalie spot

I don't think Murray will offer him one though
His agent may have been told that, which is why u are now hearing the frustration from him

Enroth needs to stay gone, we can do better.

Oh yea I know, I think everyone knew that and I told him as much haha. Apparently he said they have been talking to Edmonton for a week or so back and forth and thats what he heard was a framework offer so figured I'd share. There was also a mention of Reinhart too, but I guess Murray said something along the lines of not unless we are keeping #2

He needs to be careful he's not dealing with Mac T, we don't want to give up to much. Should get interesting.

Agreed! I look forward to it. I'd love McDavid but I am just fine with Eichel too! Either way its going to be a fun off season!!!

There is no way Chiarelli, as one of his first acts of business, trades that pick.

This unhealthy obsession with McDavid is going to get this franchise into trouble.

JUST SAY NO!

EICHEL IS THE TRUTH!

I don't think it's unhealthy to want the best for your team and fans. I personally do not think anything happens but it is being discussed and quite heavily at that by both sides supposedly. We will just have to wait and see!

There's wanting the best for your fans, but then what?

We're giving up a TON for a player who may be, when the smoke has cleared, only marginally better than Eichel.

Foligno is nothing in a trade of this magnitude.

But the other 1st? Could have been used to bring in another top 6 player.

Pysyk and Risto/Zads? Two, TWO, top 4 defensemen. Gone.

Eichel? Franchise centerman.

Hate that deal. Not shooting the messenger, but, yes, when you're giving up all that, it is unhealthy and borderline obsessive.

Idk man it's not my idea lol. I personally don't mind it all that much. Pysyk has yet to stick regardless of reasoning. Foligno doesn't bother me any, So it really comes down to Risto/Zads and NYI first for McDavid and that's not bad at all. That said I still doubt anything will happen.

Like I said. Not shooting the messenger, but it's not Risto/Zads, NYI 1st for McDavid. You forgot Eichel.

"McDavid and Eichel really separated themselves and are elite generational-type players," Central Scouting's David Gregory said. "It was great to be able to scout and watch these two players. But as a group I think we had McDavid rated a little bit ahead."


Chiarelli needs to take his phone off the hook.

That's just it though. Giving all of that up for McDavid is the exact opposite of "best for the team"

If it was Zadarov, I'd definitely make the trade. If it's Ristolainen, I'm not so sure. To me, it really boils down to how big a gap there is between McDavid and Eichel. With former players like Gretzky and Hawerchuk saying some pretty incredible things about McDavid, maybe the difference is pretty big.
The best part is that it doesn't include Reinhart. I don't like the idea of any trade for McDavid if it includes both Reinhart and our 2nd overall pick.

Yes, by all means, let's give the edmonton "3 1st overall forwards and now a generational center" oilers Zads and Pysyk. Fvck it, give 'em the other first and throw in Foligno too.

It's not just about giving too much up and being a terrible deal for us, you have to understand how much you'd be helping the oilers here.

Idk
He's a good backup
I wouldn't want him as our starter, not long term anyways
He did play above expectations last year for us
