I really can't disagree with anything he said, it was pretty solid.

And good afternoon to you Cab.

Didn't Tampa finish almost dead last when they drafted Drouin, while having Stamkos, St. Louis and Hedman on the roster?

Anaheim was 25th a few years ago with Perry and Getz in their prime

LA missed the playoffs with Kopitar, Doughty, Carter etc.

Could they dip in a given year? Sure. My statement was a response to a statement saying they will be bottom dwellers soon.

I think the status of farm systems can be a little overstated. For example, ours dropped several notches. Bad drafting? No, we had just promoted a bunch of people to the big club. We have a bit of a down year and then the next wave is soon knocking on the door.

he's always spot on.

Solid article Michael. I like where we are headed. One other scenario for Moulson is that he has a decent year in 16/17 and the new Las Vegas Hound Dogs grab him as part of the expansion draft in order to reach the cap floor.

Doesn't he have a no trade? If so we have to protect him.

"All players who have currently effective and continuing "No Movement" clauses at the time of the Expansion Draft (and who to decline to waive such clauses) must be protected (and will be counted toward their club's applicable protection limits)"

according to the nhl rules

........

For those that missed

The trade means nothing for Buffalo. Absolutely nothing.

So Bogo and Gorges have no movement clauses so we have to protect them? And Moulson has a no trade clause so we have to protect him too? My god.

listed as a free agent after 17/18 from what I saw.

from what I've gathered, bogo, yes...

gorges, no...

I believe no trade and no movement are different

I believe Gorges is a free agent after this year

The trade means nothing for Buffalo. Absolutely nothing.
