Thank You. Occasionally, just like Regier, I get lucky.

I just do not see anything we would gain from adding Gagner to our front 6..

I would take Hodge, Ennis, Grigorenko, Girgensons, or Ott all at center before Gagner.

You do realize that over the last 3 years Myers has 29G's 79A's 108P's compared to Gagner having 48G's 82A's 130P's

Just a little stat pulled from the main blog...

With 8 of those points coming in one game.

Didn't Rico or homer call this? Sekera and a prospect for gags. Then gags and staff for Ryan? All this sounds like I've heard it before

They may have. I'm not sure. Haven't heard from Homer in a while, and I choose not to read Rico's XBOX NHL 12 trade ideas.

That would be an AWESOME plan..

flip our not needed extra d-men... for a "2C" just like they want.. and then trade him for Ryan while keeping Ennis..

BRILLIANT!

I want NOTHING to do with Gagner...
- JVince117



I posted twice in the last 10 days of Gagner to Buffalo. Not saying I like him but he would be ok as a 3rd line center. I think he plays bigger than his size and the criticism towards players like him and Hemsky have to look at the Oilers as a team the last few years.

and your point is?

I'm just saying there is nothing wrong with playing him on 3rd or 2nd line when he hits around 40 -47 pts a year and still is very young at 22

he had 14 points in the span of 4 games last year...

you take those out and he was mediocre the rest of the season.

he had 7 points in his last 23 games.

How does he play bigger than his size?

I am honestly curious because according to his stats atleast.. he has 44 hits in the last 2 years combined?

I'm not being a smarta$$.. i am honestly asking.

Every study that I've ever seen. Here is the first link that came up when I googled it. http://news.illinois.edu/news/04/1117stadiums.html

We've built 2 new stadiums in the last 20 years and there is almost nothing going on around them that wasn't there already. Bring 70k people downtown 8 days a year doesn't justify spending hundreds of millions of dollars that we don't have.

- Slump Buster


Way to think outside the box.

I'll offer 1 comparable city, Pittsburgh. We are behind them in terms of redevelopment but they are great case of utilizing their remaining strengths, having a plan and executing it. Buffalo needs that cornerstone project to boost the interest in down town.

Steelers share their stadium, Buffalo does not, but could if it were closer to UB
They have a nice river walk/harbor area. Buffalo is develping theirs.
baseball parks, naval parks, hockey arenas.

It's hard to envision a scenario whereas Edm and Buff are trade partners but to play a long a bit a move of Sekera and Pysyk for Gagner and Hartikanen or possibly Paajarvi. The Oilers have a number of young centers so I could see some type of move. Anybody that thinks Grigs or Myers would be moved is insane.

LegitimateHockeyNews ‏@RumorExpress
Colorado wants Hjalmarsson and wants to trade Stastny, there has not been an official offer, but Colorado has contacted Chicago. (Cont)

That actually makes sense...


LegitimateHockeyNews ‏@RumorExpress
Sabres had a small conversation with the Sabres yesterday regarding Stastny

That however does not... just a typo i know.

See I've read these forms for awhile before signing up. I learned take homers stuff seriously.

Rico: You have to read before you react to what he says. Sometimes he will say "me and my tsn buddy's were shooting the **** and think ____". Other times he says "rumors around tsn".

And sometimes people don't read and him saying "well we we're just joking around when he brought this up".

He has good stuff when he says "rumors around tsn" and I'm pretty sure he talked about this trade idea.

I hope he did, as long as we can parlay Gagne into something useful.
