I would take both trades....

I have no clue who would take Stafford's winger spot on the 2nd line though besides Leino... Unless Grigorenko and/or Girgensons were to make the team we would have no depth.

Flip vanek to rw and put him in the slot

while it was a "good joke" that might be too soon. But heck i googled sandusky jokes when he was sentanced to jail and i found them hilarious.

Is scoring the GWG of the Stanley Cup Finals "doing the right thing"? Because I'm sure Buffalo or other teams could use something like that.

not sure how that would help buffalo... if they lost miller for crawford... the addition of Kane wouldn't allow them to even make the playoffs let alone make it to the SCF

I don't see it either... Enroth played great in his sparing time the last two seasons.. but after being what like 10-2 late 2010-2011 and the beginning of 2011-2012 season he dropped to what 2-9 down the stretch this season?

whether it was his conditioning, his mindset, the injuries infront of him.. whatever it was... showed me that this team needs Miller and that Enroth is not ready for yet.

so i see you know how to work google.com...

Well to be fair, looking at that roster, I know two of the guys on Kane's team. I had no idea they played with him until I saw the roster though.

it would force lindy to have to change his gameplan though. the "system" wouldnt work and he'd be forced to figure out a new way to win.

maybe a quick way to get rid of him

So trade a vezina winning goalie in order to make your coach's system not work and therefore lose which would push even harder for him to be fired...

GREAT WORK DARCY!!!!

No... not going to happen...

I'd keep Miller for sure, but saying Kane does nothing right is silly.

I think when millers head / body are right ...... hes a top 3 goalie in the NHL!

Before the lucic hit sabres were 10-5

After the all star game: Miller was 19 -5 - 3 or something close to that

So i dont think you trade him!

that is not an option... i think he just agreed to a 100 year extension of his contract with Buffalo

yeah i am not saying that... i am saying for this team Miller will be more helpful than Kane and Crawford

There is no doubt that Lucic ruined the Sabres season this past year... it took a very long time for the team to get functional again.. injuries devastated it all.

U take the first 15 games before Lucic.. and the time after the all-star break and we had a goalie with better numbers than any other goalie in the NHL and I believe Buffalo was the winningest team post All-Star break as well.

@sabresfrontoffice

i dont think it was just the lucic hit though.. the team got even better once both Ennis (came fully back) and Ehrhoff were back in the lineup..

And Myers....

At one time last year... Myers, Ehrhoff, Gerbe, Ennis, Regehr, Vanek, and Stafford were all hurt.. I thought...

I remember looking at the box scores and being like.. Who the F#ck is that guY!?

yeah it got real bad...

RJ Umberger has asked GM Howson for a trade...I, personally, have heard Buffalo come up a couple times now...would you guys be interested in him? does he make sense for the team? he is a center...

this is all I have to say...



depleted....

yeah take out the Lucic hit / post injury games ...... he had top 3 stats in the NHL when "healthy" and was easily out best player!

today's the big day for SabresFO...

the Gagner deal is supposed to happen today...

...we shall see...

, but it probably wont...

he would be a good fit for a 3rd line center... what is his contract?

i also think he could be had for prospects due to the rebuilding/stupidity of howson.. Cat and leo/pardy
