Let's see what will Garth do next? a Miller for Letang blog? or a Bobby Ryan blog? or yet another AVS blog?


"What has Darcy done wrong?"
- SABRES 89

Too bad those chicken sh!ts didn't say, Leino's contract, Myers contract, Miller's contract, Stafford's contract.

IMO he's a 65-75 point guy at best.

30 and 35
35 and 40

Somewhere in between that from say 25-32 years of age.

IE: Derek Roy minus the fish bowl and defensive capabilities.
- dadeadhead

Whom?

The fact that he got paid well and showed up out of shape, leaves a nasty smell in the room though. The kind of smell that can't be fixed by air spray.

Show up focused and determined this year, or bye bye IMO

I would give him one last chance, the key word is one.
- navinrjohnson

That will always mystify me how any player can come into camp out of shape. I get if they aren't in peak condition, but how can they not be at least close to peak condition?
I only play baseball in a mens league and I bust my butt to make sure I am in the best shape I can be to play well. It's pathetic preparation on Myers part.

Whom?
- Homer

Cody.

Pysyk IMO has a ceiling of becoming a Teppo type guy.

Solid in his own end
Nice breakout pass
Will get you 30 points from the back end
Hardly ever make a bad play.
Will give you 20-22 mins a night

all of the above

What's up my fine yellow, doughnut, beer drinking friend?

Cody.
- dadeadhead

I'll give the 65, I think 75 may be a little ambitious for him, but not out of the question.

65 low
75 ceiling

I see him as a 30/30 guy for much of his career.

been laying low....looking forward the draft and seeing what we do.

Cant believe Darcy is still here, but besides that everything is swell.

I'd take that.

Any word on moving up? I think we should target #5 and go from there. Canes need D and taking Nurse at #5 is too high. They could fall back to our spot and still maybe get him. Ristolainen or Zadarov could be had if Nurse were gone.

I'd take that.
- Homer

Hey Homer,
Do you still believe that we will keep Miller and trade Vanek?

5 to get who? If you're not in the top 4 then I dont see a much of a difference between 5 and 8.

I'm pretty sure either Monahan, Lindholm or Shinkaruk will be there at 8 and I'd be happy with any of them.

Bobby Ryan


Than give home the C!

Hey Homer,

- Sabresfan88

yes, I think there is a market for Vanek....I have no idea if there is one for Miller or not. Plus, from what Ive heard, Miller is open to staying...Vanek, not as open if he is at all.

Nichushkin. He's going to be the best wing in the draft, IMO.

Darcy admit failure? won't happen.

Personally, I'd have been happy with a simple "how much time to we have?" myself.

another Russian with our first pick? No thanks. Maybe he'll turn out great, but I wouldnt trade up to get him.

I got a feeling we keep Miller as well.
I am not so sure about Vanek. I think he wants out of Buffalo, as well.
Do you see us getting after any free agent player out there on the market?

Monahan and Lindholm will be gone and I'm not really interested in Shinkaruk, but Dallas is. 10 and 29/30 for the 8th.

some off the "b or c list" No A listers, but there arent that many to begin with.

Just shoot it to Crawford's glove hand. He's an AHL goalie on shots there.

The kid's a beast. He's the top of power forward I can't remember us ever having.

- dadeadhead

I read a lot of people who say Shinkaruk is a Parise clone.....if true I'll sign up. He also could be an Ennis clone, if thats teh case I'll pass. Only time will tell.

Would you take Nurse at 8? I really dont want a D there (16 is fine) but more and more mocks I see have us taking Nurse at 8.
