It wouldn't hurt to overpay a guy like that for 4 years.

That should've been the Bruins table, with everyone looking at Neely, like WTF did you just do??????

What a night.

Buffalo Comes out in a Lambo

Boston sputters to the line in a pinto

- Stripes77

it seems like he's moved every year

two unproven goaltenders would be a disaster
- gerbe75pts

So you would rather have Chad Johnson. Got it.

Ryan O'Reilly's 1.94 5-on-5 points-per-60 minutes last season was better than Ovechkin, Kopitar, Sharp, Hall, Nugent-Hopkins & H.Sedin.

Yeah, he's good

Don't you know that GMTM spent prospects he couldn't keep that might make the Nhl some day!

I mentioned last night that I want him, he will cost 6 years at 5.5-6.0 million a year though

Buy out Cody to sign another Cody...

Cap floor reached...

I think we'll probably sign one in the ufa

Great trade for both teams

Cody is a goner for sure.

I am just nervous, we need two Dman, the only two worth signing are Franson and Green, probably isnt wise to bring them both in.

Green by my estimation will want at least 5, maybe 6 years, and a money figure between 32.5-39.5 million.

Yeah, but we included a second rounder in the trade.

If memory served me he also had a high percentage of defensive zone starts. He is a very unique player in that sense.

The entire league is drooling over what Buffalo is doing, oh and by the way, the ONLY reason we are in this position is because we finished LAST.

Its not strokes that differenciates our preferences, its logic.
- MEBSabresFAN

The entire league aye?
I won't even bother with that one even though I would love to see proof of that, but do me a favor, humor me this.
If everyone in the entire league jumped off the bridge am I to understand you would also soon follow?
Alas, yes I see your logic.

Franson is a righty. I don't think we pursue him

Leave momma alone. Isn't there some concrete that needs mixing?

- Slump Buster

Yes, and also I heard that him along with Landeskog were the 2 best possession players on Colorado last year.

- sbroads24

Outside of Green and Franson there really isnt anyone I like on D. I know people like Martin, but yesterday I was in the Pens blog, and its being reported he wants a five year deal, and at 34, I want nothing to do with that. Oduya, for me at least, would boil down to the term he wants.

I'll bite...

So Dave, what would you have rather done?

Whom would you have rather acquired via trade/draft?

Did you listen or watch the coverage?

Did you read anything written by experts?

Buffalo got all A's yesterday, and many experts have said to look out for the Buffalo Sabres and a few even said playoffs next year.

Yes, and also I heard that him along with Landeskog were the 2 best possession players on Colorado last year.
- Punch70

That's the other part of the equation that the sword swallowers are missing. We weren't just turning change into dollar bills. We were building a team that is big, fast and plays in both ends. An emphasis was also placed on getting guys with good possession numbers. In other words, there was a plan.

OMG!! Don't ever,ever, ever call me such a denagrating adjective~!
