Hes got an extra year on his contract while Iginla is just a 2 month rental. And it sounds like Iginla limited their options to a couple teams so they couldnt maximize his trade value on the market.

With a shrinking cap being a rental helps more than it hurts in this situation.

STL- cant take a +1 year contract guy cause they have 50 rfa's
as an example and im sure there are plenty others in the same boat.

I agree that hes a fringe 2nd liner at best. But I think he'd certainly bolster our depth on the 3rd line. Foligno doesn't hit as much as Ott, but is pretty comparable in almost every other area of the game. Ott makes $133K less and will make more on his next contract.

Serious question, how many more 3rd liners do we need?

Iggy gave 3
Pommer gives 8 he wont trade subtract those form the rest and of the rest who would go for him? I bet that number is somewhere in the neighborhood of 5

Closer to 10.

That is my exact thought...we already have Foligno, Flynn, and Leino who are legit 3rd liners... Big Z is probably gonna be a 3rd liner....

I think what we need is a legit scoring threat on our 2RW if Ott stays at LW...

and we need a top 4 d-man.

Iggy, had full control over where he went, AKA having Calgary by the balls.


Pommer will get a better return than Iggy.

- dadeadhead


He definitely should.

Please trade pommer. From the day that he was named Captain this team has unperformed beyond belief. He is not a Captain, put that C on Ott already

“@PatrickCaisse: Buffalo Sabres asked Jason Pominville to prepare a list of eight teams where he doesn't want to be traded. #NHLTradeDeadline”
- PassionBucket16


If this is indeed true you would think the Sabres have a serious offer from a team before they asked Pominville right?

They are listed in order for a reason.


Gerbe has a contract and is a 3rd line player. I'm not happy about it but that is a fact.
