You guys have time for Drew Stafford?

For whatever it's worth Gregor is talking about a report coming out that he's open to a trade - team ties and all...hmmm, perhaps he could get going in E-town.

I'd agree with this

You are 100 percent correct Richard. I spoke with Rick Olczyk a couple of years ago and asked him why on earth did the Oil sign Horc to that awful contract. He told me that no free agents want to come to Edmonton so they had to pay Horcoff because he was willing to stay. Very bad decision!

I'm not sure I would give up much more for him. He's got some size, but doesn't use it nearly as often as he ought to, and he's a horribly inconsistent goal-scorer. I'm not sure that's what I want on our already-crowded right side. If we're trading for him, it's not going to be anything significant going back for him, and until the PFP (Player-for-player) bar gets set post lockout, I won't really know what kind of player package it would take to get him. All we have so far are the (frank)ing "low-end player for a 5th" deals so far.

Jones had more goals last year than White has career points. no thanks

Ya it's the NOT using his size enough/ lack of killer instinct that backs me off obviously.
Now, if we make a little run and our pick ended being 12th overall...that pick still doesn't seem worth it for a player that presents little jam.

Hmmm, maybe you go Hemsky for Stafford plus another roster player on the Sabres. Even then, I'd rather a Hemsky ++ package for established sandpaper or top four D.

he's okay. Not much more than what Dustin Penner was for the Oilers.

sabres will go for the deal if they just clearly gave up on him and just want to clear his salary off the books and since whitney is a ufa, they just let him walk.

just watching tsn 30 teams...blues needs a top 4 left handed d-man to play...whitney. not exactly the caliber of a top 4 d-man based on current numbers, but as of late play, he can rekindle some magic. blues cannot afford to keep stewart long term considering pietriangelo, berglund, and shattenkirk are all rfa...

whitney+ for stewart?

thing is theyre making a run. cant see them dealing stewart (or any impact roster player) before the offseason. and by then whitneys either resigned or gone.

since hes been playing well theyd prob rather have stewart as a part of the team through playoffs and let him walk for nothin than move him

Do they or is that just TSN putting words out there? They have Pietro, jackman, Shatty, Cole, Polak, and Russell, plus Redden in there. Not sure if they're needing a D that bad or if Whitney's really an improvement over anyone but Redden.

All good points. Esplen has permanantly fixed white and blue specs attached to his head. And he's not nearly as entertaining as Clouts...
- MnGump


Esplen is actually a Flames fan that happens to blog for Van. He panders to the nucktards on his blog to get hits...

Cant stand most of those those dbags on the nuck board.

bob mckenzie stated ideally the blues want to add a left handed top 4 d-man. how credible? i don't know. but with peitrieangelo seeking doughty-like paycheck, shattenkirk seeking $4-5m and berglund seeking backes-like money...blues will have to pay attention to their cap.

hearing hemsky for stafford now.

If Whitney keeps up the level of play that he's been at lately, and St. Louis actually is interested in him, then MAYBE you get Stewart for Whitney+++. And I still have no idea why St. Louis would ever consider a trade involving Stewart with Ryan Whitney as the main piece coming back..
