Note to our future draft picks: if you don’t live up to lacaprup’s expectations in your first year, you will be traded shortly thereafter.

If Levi is the goalie, then why doesn't that female dog step up and be the friggen goalie in Buffalo? Sounds like a Frannies boy.

what are the chances KA has a trade completed but won't announce it until the draft pick comes up for strategic purposes? 28 + a prospect for kane.....?

Adams loves Krebs.
- Sabretooth9


Certainly not off his play last season. Of the three question mark 1st round draft picks (Krebs, Cozens, and Mitts) Krebs is by far the biggest risk of bust IMO.

Being traded for Patrick Kane is no insult. You act like Kane's game has gone down.

If Kane doesn’t come with an acceptable extension, I see no reason to trade for him period. If he wants in next year, yep all for it. Keep stacking the prospects unless you’re getting at least 4/5 years of Kane.

I agree though I'd be thrilled with Nemec, Gauthier, Jiricek or kemell too. Maybe even Kasper?? Savoie being available is probably 50/50, maybe at best 60/40

If he has trades done it would make sense to announce at the mic. That part wouldn't surprise me.

He’s a free agent after this season. Why trade assets for him now, when you can get him for free at this time next year?

Why is that so hard for people to comprehend?

Your the ref in the minors who stands out?
- Rsh


In the southeast where I’m located none of these teams have a goalie that stands out that looks the part. Kuemper played for the Solar Bears years ago but that’s about it.

For me it's simple. You're not going to make the Playoffs for the first time and win the cup in the same year. It aint happening. You have to lose a series to learn how to make a run. Bringing in Kane does a couple things:
1. It all but guarantees were playing meaningful games to the wire if we have anyone but a stiff in net. This excellerates development of the youngsters who have never played a playoff series because they'll get one this year.
2. You have a HoF playmaker to set Quinn next to his rookie year
3. Because it's Kane and not just another future HoFer, you get 41 sell outs.

Sell outs are fun. I go to games. I want a full crowd. I want playoffs.

I would have loved Nazar and Savioe had they gotten the 7th pick and kept the 9th
- Stripes77


I’d have hoped for Jiricek & Savoie
