Yes, yes, and yes big time. If Eichel was not on our team TM would have never made a stab as Vesey

i agree with homie though, id make a big offer for trouba if he were available.

Trouba has had a hard time staying healthy over the years no? I just cant gve up a ton for another injury prone guy. especially on defense

We had to take Reinhart - no guarantee on Eichel - other than Draisatl....Sam Bennett?

Maybe he burned a few, but I like what we got back. We won the Kane trade, WON the ROR trade -

Vesey was ugly - but lets be candid - he was banking on Eichel reeling him in on that summer squad last year.....Vesey sucks anyways

What about the 6 2nd picks wasted and 2 first in 2015 what depth did Tim bring to this organization ? And Kane and his 30 some points it's not a win we thought this guy was going to be a Corey Perry did we not when we traded for him
Now people are like no big deal at least he plays hard and fights cool

I think the only reason he missed time this year was a holdout and suspension. I could be wrong though

would you do reinhart and 8 for tanev and 5?
- Sabresfan-365

Probably.

Tanev is not iron man though either

Trouba is uber talented. Reminds me of Bouwmeester back in the Calgary days

I definitely agree. But can we protect him?
- lulags

With bubble wrap maybe. Or maybe he can play in one of the big rubber balls that people play in in between periods. Would skate about the same and probably be able to start blocking some shots.

Did Housley have Trouba in 2013 or was he the year after?

From last blog...

1. We're trading Kane. This is the only time to trade him to get the best value. He's not going to sign here. While I'd like to keep him it just seems like he'll hit FA.
2. We need a top pairing defenceman and Kane alone is likely not enough. Brodin is very, very good and would likely be the best case scenario for us to get.

I honestly pay very little attention to the Jets. Just going by stats/GP. Hes only had one season where hes played over 65 games (in past 4 seasons)

How many "Young guys" do we need

Baptiste - Bailey - Rodriques - Carrier - Reinhart - Eichel - Casey Nelson - Nylander last year etc etc. etc Who am I forgetting? Marcus Foligno is 'young" - heck Ennis is like 26?

Dude, we had TOO many picks. Sure, he was liberal with them, I hated the 1st for Lehner - I am ALL in favor of trading Kane NOW -

Now there's a trade worth discussing. Yes, and the Jets could use a Robin Lehner

I don't think the Jets need that much help down the middle. There weakness is in the goal.

- homiedclown

lehner plus our second for 1 year of Trouba at $3M and the right to sign him long term.

I don't think we need to give them Sam for that year and that chance.

I think if Trouba is moved it's a situation where the team knows he will re-sign.

Like O'Reilly or even Drouin

Lets start the conversation. It has to be a somewhat exciting prospect to come to Buffalo, be the top 2 guy?

Ok - maybe fellas, your expectations ARE WAY TOO HIGH -

The dude gambled, won some, lost a few smaller others.....yet when Regier was here everyone cried he was too conservative -

Bouwmeester could skate like the wind, move the puck up and down the ice, set up beautiful plays. He was very talented and seeing the play and development.

Bogos falls under this. He is a strong player who looked like he was lacking in confidence all year.
- lulags

I think a lot of players had the same problem
