There's no way one fan of any team would agree to that. How on Earth could that be a real proposal? ZG+ for sure. Doesn't even have to be a huge +. Of course, it's not up to fans..

Not saying you're wrong because I'm well aware of your inside knowledge... ROR, Moulson, (Stammer).. just very hard to believe.

I agree but we can only wait and see as of now.

Vesey discussion flow-chart:

Pre-trade: Vesey is a beautiful hockey apple just sitting there on that low branch
Trade: Vesey will never sign in Buffalo
(Signs in Buffalo): Vesey is totally overrated, spoiled, and will be a career AHL'er
(Signs in X city): I can't believe we got this young superstar in the making for nothing

About right?

Speculation Sabres all in on Stamkos
upwards of $12MM a year.

According to Dreger.

Guarantee well still make the playoffs next year. Maybe even win a round. While you'll be on the outside looking in, again.

You're taking the Edmonton approach to rebuilding. It's been working out really well for them.

I would LOVE to bet you about playoffs....while we build up for deep runs it sounds like youre content with getting into the playoffs and barely making it through a round or two off of "The Queen" Lundqvist...yeah enjoy that because thats as far as youll be getting for at least the next five years...Sabres are trending up while the rangers are slowly crashing and burning and we all get to watch it along the way..

Like I said 10-11 a year and they won't blink at that price, wouldn't shock me 12 mill either but I was only told 10-11.

Lundqvist is going downhill, McDonagh is a hit away from being a vegetable, at least one of either Stepan, Brassard, or Nash will be gone before the start of the year.
- doppelthat

We'll be trading Stepan for Dumba and a 1st. Then use the free cap space to sign Stamkos

The Rangers are capable of making a deep run every year with how the roster is currently constructed.

Considering they are drafting number 1, got a starting goalie and look to land Stamkos, I'm really not sure you'll see much disappointment in Leafs fans faces. Lou can't promise him top line minutes like TM can. He has to earn his spot on the Leafs roster battling the likes of Marner, Nylander, Soschnikov, Hyman, Brown and Kapenen. Not too mention Michalek and Greening. I just don't see him being a fit in TO.
- ShayneCorsi


Michalek still plays hockey in the NHL???? Colin Greening is allowed to as well?

Vesey is better than everyone you listed there besides Marner and Nylander. Stop kidding yourself. Hyman, Brown, Soschnikov, and Kapenen. Pffftt.

Hyman had 37 pts in 59 games in the AHL.
Brown had 29 pts in 34 games in the AHL (maybe best one of the group)
Soshnikov had 28 pts in 52 games in the AHL.
Kapanen had 25 pts in 44 games in the AHL.

Christ... Philip Varone had 32 pts in 44 games, William Carrier had 30 pts in 56, even Baptiste had 28 pts in 62 games and his debut AHL year was basically a disaster.

Get real man. They are not god sends.

Who's Gracco?

Why are you being so aggressive? I didn't say anything about their talent levels, that was you.

All I mentioned was age

I don't think he should get more than either of them at all. They both have their name on the Cup 3 times. Both have won the Conn Smythe. Kane has a scoring title (probably would have 2 if he didn't break his collarbone last year).

In no way shape or form do the Rangers have a roster that could compete for the Stanley Cup

I think it's funny that people think he's not going because of his agent lol
The sabers don't want to lose any picks for tempering


best friends and are known to have the biggest Bromance

No one should be worried about this at all it will get done just sit back and relax

Teams that say otherwise are just jealous bumholes

Did you read his quote? He wants to choose where he plays and was pretty clear about the criteria. He's not going to let a deal between 2 GMs take that decision away from him.

Good selling point. I hear Stamkos loves playing wing.
