The thing is he proved time in and time out he couldn't do that. I recall four or five times just off the top of my head where he missed incredibly easy goals that Eichel set him up with. He doesn't deserve to be on a line with the future of this team right now. Until he proves it playing on a lower line.
Fair point with Eichel I get it. That's why I thought Vanek would be perfect here. I get people hate him but he does exactly what you spoke of. Taps in goals is in the right place etc. We need someone like that to play with Eichel. Vesey is that guy. Should we not get him or sign/trade for anyone to play that spot like Pirri. Then we have to go with what we have. I believe Ennis is more capable of scoring at this stage than Moulson. They all ready tried him Girgensons and Foligno there and they all failed miserably. Give Ennis a shot there or if Nylander somehow makes the team then him - bluengold12
Well the good thing about Eichel is how good he is you don't need a great player you just need one not to mess up. Moulson I'm holding out a sliver of hope that he can do it but I get why you disagree. Personally I would still start with it and if it doesn't work try something else. I agree on Vesey and Vanek could have been good. Nash would also be nice to have there but that seems a bit far fetched for me.
I was surprised to see that Pirri wasn't already taken. I'd jump on that if I could for a short term deal.
If the leafs don't get Vesey I hope the Sabres do. It will only add to the great future rivalry that's coming very soon. Looking forward to hating you guys again.

Already hate you guys
But it's going to be fun. Hopefully we meet in the playoffs within the next few years. Now that would be fun.

Public info - Pretty sure Pegula cares less what we're doing on this site, just a guess. This probably provides better leads than anything else we get on this site. So the Plane flies to MA and turns around back to BUF in 50 minutes - this provides enough time for a lunch or meeting? Trying using a little logic here, it may be hard, I know. why don't you head back to your Toronto site and try to screw over your #1's pick bonus structure along with Uncle Lou. - turbo044
