Huge game for both teams: Panthers 16 points - Buffalo 15 points. Two of the worst teams in the Eastern Conference/League. Both teams can't score and give up a ton of goals. Goaltending is shotty for both teams, Injuries play a huge part.
Last time the Panthers won 2 games in a row was this year when they played at Buffalo. Hope that trend stays the same, probably won't though after winning vs Pitt this will be another Panther letdown.
Folks this is a trade proposal based on rumours about a Briere deal.
Personally, I would rather focus on O'Reilly, but Colorado would probably demand our 1st pick, which would end up being 1st overall.....I would make the deal only if it was a lottery safe pick.
Pegula might be willing to bring Briere back and hope that Briere's playoff type spark ignites now for the Sabres for the stretch run...problem is you have to make the playoffs and one aging player is not going to get this done right now, but could he help start the fire maybe. Get to the playoffs and all of a sudden we all know what Briere is capable of doing there. Next year, we are back to squere one during the season though.
Scenario 1:
Briere and Simmonds to Buffalo
Stafford and Leopold to Philly
Scenario 2:
Briere and Couturier to Buffalo
Leopold, Regher and Adam to Philly
Scenario 3:
Briere to Buffalo
Leopold and McCormick to Philly.
Basically it is a salary dump for Philly as they prepare to take a run at getting Perry or Getzlaf......
Take you pick on the deal....keep in mind Philly will have salary cap issues going forward and everyone knows it.
Personally, I would love to see Hodgson center Simmonds and Gerbe; Briere move in with Pominville and Vanek; Porter on the wing with Ott and Ennis;
Grigorenko rotating with Hecht on a line with Foligno and Kaleta;
Scott to be dressed as a 6th defenseman with Brennan as the PP specialist;
Roll Sekera, Regher, Myers, Ehrhoff, with Weber and Pardy as your 3rd pairing.
Youd give this 10 games and if it does not work, start trading out quantity and picks for quality like O'reilly and do so by making room on defense for McNab and Pysyk and up front for Flynn (and Tropp next year) and Armia and Girgensons.

Any truth to the rumour that Craig Rivet wants to attempt a comeback next year?
Also, anyone hearing that Florida would be willing to move Campbell and if so would we bring back both Campbell and Briere....again these are salary dumps for those teams, although Campbell might cost us Erhoff and forward?

Your F$$KIN high all of a sudden Leoplold is Paul Coffey? give me a break.
Did anyone know Daniel Briere was chosen by the Winnipeg Jets with the 1st round pick the Sabres traded to them along with Craig Muni for Michael Grosek and Darryl Shannon? He was destined to be a Sabre.
