Potentially.

Say it's Kane + Girgensons + 1st round pick

Myers
Stafford
2015 1st
2017 1st
Armia
Lemieux
Girgensons

For Bogo and Landy.

Say Myers=Bogo. And that's being generous

Would you give 2 1sts, Lemieux, Armia, Stafford and Girgensons for Landeskog?

That a bit of an over payment. But we also got a season of Kane too. Does that mean nothing?

I remember this one time my dad told me the story about this 5th round pick that the Sabres went to Russia for..... Got on a plane to convince him to come to the Sabres

I forgot his name

A kid defecting his country risking his life to a Harvard graduate I wouldn't go that route.

What about when you add in Eichel? And before you say if Stafford and Myers suck the logic is flawed, I would counter that their replacements were even more inept.

I'm not going to try to predict what would have happened if they never did it

Remember the Toews and Atkinson plays? Those could have never happened

I forgot about him. He could be a decent back up eventually. As long as his injuries don't haunt him

I knew what you were getting at and I can agree to a point but the entire Mogilny thing could have killed Luce and Mogilny not to mention his entire family.

We still have our 2017 1st if I'm not mistaken.

Getting Landeskog would balance the trade out IMO.

Gerbe. How do you know Vesey is on the plane?

Also, I'm inclined to agree with 89. I feel if he wanted to play here, he'd have signed already. We are not helping this kid at all - it will add to his big head and make him think he should "play the field." I'm already sold that he isn't coming here.

It's not a story they did a small documentary on all the Russian Mob and the Russian hockey Players and what went down, you can't compare Vesey's situation to what Mogilny, Federov and Bure went through. This kid either wants to play here or he doesn't, simple as that.

I don't want to back read. But anyone that is comparing mogilny to vesey in any way shape or form is ridiculous. And I feel shame on the American education system if people don't understand Russia circa mogilny

Yea because how the hell can you see who's plane is going where, i'm a little slow so maybe it's me.
- SABRES 89


If you know the tail number of the plane you can find out real easy. You can either see a guy getting on a plane, find out from someone else, or do some digging into their financials if they're a public company to see what assets they own. There are a few other, shall we say, nefarious ways as well. Everyone's required to file a flight plan with the FAA. And they make the info public.

It's not really all that different now. They're sliding right back into it. The corruption never went away though. Sure, they're a democracy now, but when your guy gets like 98% of the vote you know there are shenanigans going on.

I'm not saying any of this has to do with Mogilny or Vesey.
