No, but when another GM says, that he is nearly impossible to work with, and specifically mentions him, there has to be some truth to it.
- ImThatGuy

He should be hard to work with. Burke's team is within the division. Every team asks for more from a division opponent.

I'm not saying it is a good idea for them, but that is the decision they are going, which takes another suitor out of the Miller sweeps.
- ImThatGuy


Ya, I was just making a general comment.

Not sure why the Flyers always spend all this money and don't go after a proven goalie. I still remember when they were handing money out like water but wouldn't sign Cujo and let him go to TO. They probably would have won a couple cups with Cujo in his prime.

And the Flyers won't make the playoffs again this year if they are going to rely on Emery.
- BigStew

They will make the playoffs, but that's all they care about. They won't win the cup with that defense or goaltending. Sure they will score enough to make the playoffs

Sources tell me that last night the third hot dog was a mistake.
In other news, I expect the Sabres to be surprising. Not necessarily surprisingly good. Just, I expect a move that no-one saw coming.

Could be, but every GM tries to get over on the other GMs and inflate the value of their players, that is how you win trades. There is something to be said for win-win scenarios, but how often does that happen? Burke wasnt exactly easy to deal with himself in my opinion...

Burke made very bold moves when he was in Toronto. He built that TML team and will get no credit for it.

What bold moves has Darcy made?

It's true. He's been a huge disappointment for them. He's their version of TJ Brennan.

Trade Miller and do something to get Stafford off the team. No to Derek Roy.
- Losman




Could not have said it better. Talk about pisin' off the fan base...sign Roy and half the fans will turn on the team, the other half will laugh at the incompetence, well laugh louder anyway

Darcy probably got up this morning and put his left leg into his pants first instead of his right one. Totally bold move.

Really though. Which is a more likely scenario for Philly going after Ray Emery instead of Miller. Is it because they think Emery is better than Miller? or is it because the Price for Miller is too high, and the GM wont budge?

Sylvester said it on GR but it doesn't add up because Blum is a UFA. I haven't found it anywhere.

Darcy ordered a new chair fo his office this year. It was quite bold becuse he was concerned that the lumbar support wouldn't be sufficient. His chiropractor confimed yesterday that his back is ok. His situation is unique given that he is spineless, so he needs maximum suport.

Did he do that by being easy to deal with or did he get over on other GMs by taking advantage of them for being easy to deal with?

Next year's UFA group includes Gaborik, Thornton, Marleau, Lundqvist, Boyle, both Sedin's, Kessel, Callahan, Pavelski, Orpik, Brown, Moulson.
- mhp


Andnext year we will still be the Sabres with Darcy as GM so no FA in his right mind will come here. terry will learn through this rebuild that the fans were right and he wasted years learning it slowly. Get you pen out Terry and start the list of "what he has done wrong"
