“As of this morning, what I was told is that there’s a 50-50 chance that Ryan O’Reilly gets traded period." #Sabres


My opinion: This came from the Sabres organization - they want it out there that we are not desperate to move him.
- Cup Crazy '07

This also screams to me "I need something else thrown in to really make me want to deal him.... sweeten up the deals"

PHX took Datysuk and Pronger.

ACTIVE. People will take contracts all day long if they don't have to actually pay the player. Those are the contracts that get moved.

If it gets Justin Bailey and Baptiste off the team I’m all for it

The Bailey Baptiste ship has sailed, they're both 23 before the season starts, they might be ok bottom 6 guys

[quote=gerbe75pts]
It’s only for a little while till we can draft or trade for a younger winger. We could be very competitive with that lineup. We can turn a bunch of these guys that can’t be protected into draft picks... and if you get another 1st by trading ROR. Now you have 3 first round picks, that should get you what you want in next years draft.

It also allows Rochester to field a really good team top to bottom with them resigning the goalie Wilcox.

Baptiste is better at this point, bailey no idea what happened to him last year, maybe the injury... but I don’t think either of these guys are going to crack the top 6 anymore... so either or both can be a throw in to any future deals, but i’d Put girgs, Larson in this group as well.

If we get. Thomas + Botts will be gm of the year

I'm honestly shocked the blues would trade him he's at the level of Casey and NHL ready next year

I want a trade with Minny. Zucker, dumba, nino. Plus they seem to always want to trade with us.

We would need to take Ennis back but throw him in Rochester.
- Fattony1187

I would love to get Zucker and/or Dumba in a ROR trade. Zucker would definitely solve our LW problem. At first I thought that Minny didn't need any centers so this wasn't an option but I noticed some Minny fans say they would love to trade for ROR even in a trade for Zucker. I'm not sure why Minny would let Zucker go unless they can't afford/agree on an Extension with him, but I would love him on this team. I wouldn't mind Dumba either he would also add to our RD, which needs help. Again not sure why they would trade him but I think he may be in a situation similar to Zucker. I would prefer that over a Trade with St. Louis, but we will see.

I would love me some JVR. Basically would replace ROR's offensive production (55-65 points yearly.) JVR + Sheary is a nice top 2 LW from where we came from, and allows us to move ROR for Parayko + Berglund (my hope) +. Let the kids keep simmering and call them up when they show they deserve it, a la Pitt.
- SDSabre

I don't think Berglund is an option in a St. Louis trade given he has a 20 team no trade list and I doubt we are one of the 11 teams he would go too. I would also prefer getting Riley Nash to play 3C and see if we can get a LW in a trade or within because paying JVR what he most likely would want is not a good idea, plus from what Leafs fans have been saying he isn't worth paying in the first place.

I ended up watching Se7en
