Looks like Quincey will be out in Detroit. I wouldn't mind having him be a nice stabilizing force on the 2nd/3rd pair if we're unable to make a big move. At something like a Franson deal.

I'm fairly confident that it would work out fine, and I'm sure Murray would have to be to make the deal as well. Really the only case I can think of not being able to switch sides is Franson, and he's a special case because of his anchor feet.

Hopefully you're right but if he doesn't do his homework things like that can get someone fired in my opinion because then you're going to have move players to different sides and different line combos etc ..

But damn those power-play goals Would go up maybe he could turn it up like Brett burns with stamkos , jack , ROR omg i'm about to tear up because now I know it's a dream

If we added Stamkos and Faulk in the same offseason I don't know what I would do. It would be insane. Lol

From an outside view I wouldn't mind it either, but most Detroit fans seem to hate him like he's their Mike Weber. Not sure on him.

I'm a huge Richard I usually give the pooptiest player lots of playing time so I could trade them for draft picks and first round picks and I make sure those teams are going to be in the lottery by looking at the standings usually I have no players left but I always get the first overall pick And just signed a bunch of free agents in the summer and do an offer sheet for a restricted free agent I'm a Richard gm

I always tried to play as realistic as possible, it's more fun when there's more of a challenge. It kind of loses it's playability after awhile though. Looking forward to NHL 17.

I always simulate a season or two with a bad team and do a "rebuild".

I meant you've been gone too long to realize it can and does snow in early to mid May here. I'm not saying we get any accumulation, but if the air aloft is cold enough even if it's in the upper 30's to about 40 at ground level, like today it'll snow. I saw literally 2 flakes today. I remember the year we signed Mario Williams it was like 80+ degrees for almost a week in early March, and then it was snowing 2 weeks later. I needed AC. In March. In Buffalo. Spring in Buffalo is crazy.

I'm starting my Fallout 4 survival play through. What should I call my character? I'm playing as the guy. I already have the female character.

Never played Fall out or COD. I literally only play NHL or Madden and I do maybe once every two weeks or so.

Dont know what to make of Faulk tbh. Not really my first choice when thinking of someone we'd want to add but can't say i wouldn't be excited if we added him.

Can't see what reason Carolina would have to move him other than having some good D prospects. Maybe the target is someone like Fluery. They are light at forward

Faulk would cost so much would it even be worth it to add? 2 first rounds or Reinhart would probably be the asking price

imo, way, way too much for a offensive-minded/powerplay d-man with issues in his own zone...he scored 31 goals over the past two seasons, 19 on the powerplay...he was also a minus-41

I wish I could have a real winter, i miss them. I would take Buffalo's winter over Tampa's summer. If I remember correctly Christmas was in the high 80's here and the summer is just so insanely humid I don't know how anybody could enjoy it. It's hard to breath here because it's so humid. I can't wait to get back up north.

Of course it is but what would you expect carolina to ask for when trading their best player. For a team that wants to make the playoffs next year it cant be scraps going back
