Subban: "I feel a whole lot closer to winning a Stanley Cup after today's trade."


Savage.

I was told 28, but ennis could be. But i think it is 28 going

The same Rick Nash that had 36 points last year, is 32 and makes 7.9 MILL a year. Why on earth would the Sabres do that.

Going to bathe the dog... hopefully nothing else insane happens.

Homer,the same reason murray does anything. Regier to murray,we definetly didnt and dont now ,have the smartest man in the room. From many ex players,regier built his team in his image,PASSIVE. Murray i dont know what he is doing

So what's plan C now ...

Youre speaking as if we traded for Nash....this is all speculation.

He has 2 years left. Cap hit is irrelevant to us, crucial to NY. We get a top 6 forward for almost nothing.

Had a hell of a year no doubt, at 32 I gotta think those days are behind him, and at that cap #, I'll pass.

Taylor Hall
Brandon Saad
Evander Kane

Which one cost the most, and had by far the worst year?

I go to the doctors and everything goes nuts!

I'm bittersweet about Stamkos... The fact that he signed for 8.5 is a joke! I get it but I don't know why he magically decided to take the deal now... I'm thrilled he's not in Toronto but definitely bummed it's not us

Murray better go into insane mode these next few days. I don't care what any of you Girgensons shippers say the team currently constructed is a bottom 10 team and will always be a bottom ten team. Murray better trade or sign any top six winger he can get. As long as it's not over 6.5 a year for the player we sign I don't care what it takes get it done.

I think Vesey walks now. I think he tests market and signs elsewhere if we end up with no Vesey and no Stamkos and (frank)ing Girgensons on the LW with Eichel Murray should be fired
- bluengold12

Overreact ouch?. Ever consider that stamkos not signing here makes it easier for Vesey to be a top 6 on buf? There's a novel idea!!

28 is more than 'almost nothing"

Now if it was Ennis, yeah, maybe.

What is NYRs desperation to move him now that Stamkos is back in TB?

- Homer

If he were signed longer than 2 the cap might be a concern. We have oodles of room for the next two years.

So what's plan C now ...
- GERBE!!!75PTS

If I was GM. It would be to see what market is for Eberle. Try and fleece Edmonton. Eberle for Bogosian straight up

Overreact ouch?. Ever consider that stamkos not signing here makes it easier for Vesey to be a top 6 on buf? There's a novel idea!!
- turbo044

No he want's to go to a team that is ready to win. This team is not ready to win with their current roster.

I like 28, but Nash is a better player right now than 28 will ever be

You are hearing this here. I just received a text. Rick Nash is the sabres target in a trade. Watch
- Buffalo39

Sure he is. We all. Believe you wolf

- sbroads24

Nash is done...maybe a 3rd and I would make NYR give us a prospect for taking on Nash's 7.9 million. Dude is 32.

And in two years Girgs will be in the NHL and Nash wont

Based on what?

- Homer

And why would you GIVE the NYR ANYTHING for that favor?
unless they retain the max salary they can, and then it's still a pick and a prospect or may be foligno, girgs or Larsson.

I guess it all depends what we give up if I'm on board or not....like with any trade really.

Nash can score. He had an injury riddled year. IMO you take the chance he returns to 70% of what he was 2 years ago.

Toronto has the best management of all of the Canadian teams. That is scary.
