Rumor is Pacioretty and 3 for ROR and Reinhart. It wasn't from lebrun or Bobby Mac but it's floating around out there tonight.

Botterill should be fired if he does that

Why? Just because Pacioretty isn't 23?

I saw Pacioretty and 3 alone for ROR. All I know is twitter is hot right now about Buffalo and Habs talks. Regardless of ROR deal the Sabres appear to be gunning for Patches.

That was a mistake. It was supposed to be Pacioretty "or" 3 not "and".

Might be a slight overpayment.

But would be forgotten as soon as Zadina and eichel start combining for 30 goals each

Either ROR or Reinhart is an overpayment in terms of Pacioretty 1-for-1.

Statistically, based on age, Pacioretty's best days are behind him

I don't want to pay a 30-year-old Pacioretty a Kane (7x7) contract

I'd much rather keep Pacioretty out of any deal. What's the price for 3OA? I'll pay that, but I have no interest in a winger whose best days are almost assuredly behind him. I can find a younger, cost-controlled winger to play with Jack at a fraction of that trade price

Yes it is, nice course and great views of the hills. I pay $700 for a season pass, unlimited golf.

I've listened to hamilton a lot, though not today. I usually find him very balanced in his comments. He just scorches him every time. I find it really hard to give risto the benefit of the doubt.
- Lunaion


Maybe he just has a thing for Risto, Lord knows that never happens in this town. I tend to trust Craig Rivet's opinion more and he thinks there is no way they should trade Risto.

Hamilton also said today that at 23 Risto still has room to grow. Some days he loves him, some days he hates him. That's pretty fair.

I'd have to scorch someone in a trade to move him. He still might be horse.

RoR will be slowing down too, patches is a better leader and he plays the wing. Sounds like a wash to me

In my opinion, that is an overpay on Buffalo's part. I don't understand how ROR and Reinhart are worth less than Pacioretty and a maybe prospect at 3oa? we would be giving up 2 established players for a 30yo winger and an I hope he turns out to be good prospect, which we have seen how that has turned out in the past.

I don't give that show any weight. It's Pegula funded. It's no coincidence that they like everyone and criticize nothing.

Most of what he says about Risto you can see on the ice.

I think more than anything you would be trading two mediocre skaters for 2 good-to-very-good skaters

It has been mentioned that one of the knocks against Zadina is his skating, we are already having problems finding someone who can skate with Eichel.

Average skating in an age where most prospects coming up are terrific skaters all around is still better than RoR and Reinhardt.

We don’t need blistering speed we need good skating and finish
