I'd want a much better pick assuming the Sabres aren't on his no trade list. If he comes back in an Eichel deal with Zary, Pelletier and picks, so be it

Hayden makes the team because he can whip ass!! Okposo is one punch from retirement!!Lucci is in Force reputation. So if any punks like the flyers that when after dalhin get stopped!! Cozens can’t fight for the hole team!! He is to good. Has the heart . And will be captain so day!! Better the the skirt!! Liam O’Brien is a Rochester option!! And a call up for certain teams! Rags and caps!
They are loaded for old time hockey!! Slap shot hockey!! Live 2005 ducks they kicked asst o the cup!! That is hockey

Hey RSH, people around here say you are a bitter old man who drinks too much and lives vicariously through your son.

I don't have any problem with that.

Yes, because they need the cap hit to make the cap floor this season and maybe next season as well.

Just got a Synergy Grip signed by Henrik Tallinder in the mail today. Signature is kinda faded, but stick is still in brand new shape. Pretty nice.

Good reply. IMO, the players and the agents that are demanding that kind of money need to take the bulk of the responsibility when they don't live up to the deal, I am sure that they negotiated the team way up from where they ideally wanted the player in the first place. That said, the team sure as heck needs to maximize what they can get out of the player once the deal is done. Burying Skinner on the 4th line makes no sense, at all. It's not like you overpaid Lucic, and the third or fourth line is where his skillset actually belongs.
- Beergu


Skinner played with Eichel, the 2nd line, the 3rd line, the first PP, and the 2nd PP ALONG with 4th line. He played off the 4th line when Ralph was fired and was dud and went back to the 4th line from Granato. Just to put perspective on things.

Easton needs to bring back the Synergy.

EDIT: I never knew Bauer swallowed them up.

Yea I’m expecting a second rounder for him at the deadline if they end up moving him as long as he is scoring at a 20 goal pace come deadline time.

Contending team can play him on the third line with PP time.

- Pegullaville


Exactly, if we can make him cheap, he will be worth something to a contender. Maybe even a late 1st if the market is a seller's one unlike this summer.

He isn't completely useless, I'll take his PP production, but paying 6M+ for a PP specialist is a good way to ensure we stay at the bottom.

Yeah never will be anymore. I have one of each from the OG synergy and the grip counterpart to the S19 stealth. Pretty cool collection. All new. Only one I’m missing is Si Core Grip. The Tallinder one is the only one I have signed though

In the first 35 games of the season, he had 2 games with Eichel, the rest of the time it was with: Lazar, Sheahan, and Mittelstadt. Looks like about 16 of the last 20 games of the season he was with Reinhart and Olofsson.

Kaiser, bf19 and stashu all in the same blog. I'm a pretty happy guy right now, the old guard coming out to fight for what's right. I like it a lot.
