Ennis will rebound this season and Moulson will score 30 pts. As the roster remains today.

i assume that there is little interest in him until he shows that his head is ok

That's a lot of games he missed last year, maybe a team takes a chance.

Back reading 10 pages or so......


Stamkos is available .. We are actually in the news as interested and willing to pay.

Some say get 2 other players for that price (high quality wingers)

Are we just gonna check the thrifty section ads? Last player of his caliber to hit FA was Kovalchuk. and he was 30.

Get Stammer on the team and worry about the future ..in the future. Just sit back and enjoy the ride. Some of you have never been there.

My biggest fear is having Vesey and Stamkos turn us down, and having our big off-season moves be Kyle Okposo and Cam Fowler.

The point I originally raised was the taken out of context quote by Murray about the "best centerman". I said Stamkos isn't and listed 6 guys that are/will be better. And it just got whacky from there.

And somewhat tangentially related to that. With the "it's only an extra $2M". Ask Chicago if they'd take $2M in cap space about now. Or St. Louis.

- Wetbandit1



The argument the pro-Stamkos guys say is "win now at all costs, F a couple of years down the road when we have to pay Jack, Samson, and hopefully Vesey." I say that the team doesn't need Stamkos at 12mil/ 7-8 years, other options are available, or can be created, that are almost as good as Stamkos, but cost the team a hell of a lot less in the long run. According to Cap Central, there are 10 teams who have 2 mill., or less (2 teams over the cap), in Cap room. There's opportunity there, as well as other teams that have needs, and want to trade.

Maybe not straight up but there might be something there where the sabres get the d-man and that teams 1st rounder. like 8 and something for Brodin and 15. Gives you your LHD and a pick high enough that you can get a player with top 6/top 4 upside. Not saying I would do this as Im not a huge Brodin fan but Im thinking thats what they might be interested.
- Sabresfan-365




8 and Girgensons enough to get Brodin and 15?

Then flip 15 Pysyk and Foligno for Eberle! Haha

Sign Stamkos sign Vesey

ROR Stamkos Eberle
Vesey Eichel Reinhart
Kane Larsson Ennis
Delo Schaller Gionta
Moulson

Risto Brodin
Bogo McCabe
Nelson Gorges

You protect Risto Brodin McCabe and Bogo on the blue line and Eberle ROR Stamkos and Kane up front. You'll lose Ennis most likely unless you move him during the year for a pick and a prospect if say Fasching or Bailey are ready.

I was just illustrating that the quote by Murray about the "best centerman", and how it was taken a bit out of context, and how Stamkos isn't. That's all. It snowballed quite a bit.
- Wetbandit1

I think you're the one who took it out of context, or rather too literally. He didn't really mean the best center out of all centers in the league. He meant if a guy wants to come to your team that is going to be the best center on your team, it doesn't matter if you are already deep with good centers, you get that guy and move someone out if necessary.

It's Murray's job to find those players. You're going to be one of those guys 1-2 years down the road that are wondering how the hell we're going to get out of Cap hell, when Stamkos pulls a Moulson.

I had no idea Vesey rhymes with "feces"....as in "honey, remember we're having the Veseys for dinner tonight".

Come....on......

He's 26. Not 30. Elite goal scorers do not fall off a cliff until about 35 years old.

It's one of those things if you don't take the chance that is there for you, you will be waiting another 20yrs for it and it may never present itself.

Ive been waiting a long time already.

You think that in 1-2 years Stamkos is going to decline like Moulson has? He's only 26 right now. Moulson is 32. Pretty big age difference there.

I highly doubt that Stamkos is going to heavily decline at 28, but hey, what do I know.
