The more I hear the more I think it's Murray's destiny to trade #8 for Fowler. Hoping to god that he doesn't do anything that stupid.
- chilliard77

There has to be more to it. There is no way that Fowler is worth the #8 pick.

Just met wnylander. Cool guy.

What if.... (Now this is going pretty out there but with Murray anything is possible)

But what if we do 8th overall and Girgensons and our 2nd rounder for Fowler and picks 24 and 30...

THEN.....

Murray trades 24 and 30 to a team to move back into the top 10 or 12 picks...

What if, Murray then trades picks 24 and 30 for the 8th!?

Just met wnylander. Cool guy.

Where'd you meet him?

Half of the San Jose Sharks are upstairs in Bada Bing.

Even Girgs for Fowler is paying a hell of a price, but I think I could deal with it.
- chilliard77

We have vastly differing opinions of Girgs then.

I don't want to trade the pick at all unless a legit top pairing guy is coming back (Shattenkirk, Lindholm, Faulk, etc)

Downtown, walking around

I think it's Fowler and 30 for 8th and a player (Pysyk or Girgensons) the most likely

If we got Lindholm, I'd probably lose my mind.

I've come to terms that if Ana wants 8 for Fowler there's no way we're getting Lindholm.

Agreed. I don't even want to know what he'd cost...

I don't think it would ever happen. But if it did, I would lose my mind.

My guess the way things are going is...

8th overall Reinhart and Guhle...

There's a serious lack of faith in Murray on this board. There is NO WAY that we are trading the #8 for Cam Freakin Fowler. In 9 hours I'll say "I told you so". Murray is a hockey mind, he's not stupid.

They are not going to trade pick #8 for Fowler. He is not good enough for a top 10 pick. Anaheim scouted the Hell out of the Sabres last year for some reason. They must have liked some players and one of the best insiders on another site has said they are discussing Girgs or Ennis and Pysyk. Unless a bigger name comes back to Buffalo no (frank)ing way is 8 going the other way.

I think it's Fowler and 30 for 8th and a player (Pysyk or Girgensons) the most likely
- bluengold12

Too much to give up. Why would trade #8, which may get you a 1st line d and a player taken in the first rd for a borderline 2nd line dman and a very late 1st?? We need to think rationally here. Gmtm said he would give up #8 for a 1st dman. Fowler isn't that

I want to agree but I could see him making that trade.

The deal I was told about was Girgensons for Fowler

Fowler will be on our top pairing 100% but that's neither here nor there...

We're all thinking this will be the trade because other reporters are saying it's most likely.

I want to agree but I could see him making that trade.

Come on man, really????? The beauty of this situation is that it will be resolved shortly. I'm taking names of all non believers, and you will be called out.

If we give up #8 for Fowler, I will officially be in the Tim Murray needs to go group because there is no reason to do that deal.
