Wanna tell me Stafford has value and that pending-UFA Ryan Miller has much, either? Or is this about Myers?

Stafford sucks but you think miller doesent have value??? Hes on the worst team in the NHL and has a .940 SV percentage. Look back to the garbage given up at the deadline, like for iginla. Miller has high value with the olympics this year.

I think thats too much. Yak will follow kovalchuck and go to the KHL within the next 2 seasons anyway, hes not made for the NHL, hes an individual, not a team player, all he does is puck hog and wait in the slot for a pass.

Yeah, I think they'll stick with the guy with high-end potential as opposed to getting a backup, another Smid, and a 2nd.

His dad already came out and said in the offseason he would consider going back to the KHL id things didnt go well. Murray should have been your pick, but your old stupid GM told his scouts they were wrong.

No way should any team overpay for him. Don't see why Bergevin would be interested if not only for Yakupov's relationship with Galchenyuk. He stated numerous times he wanted no passengers and players with character on his team, an attribute Yakupov seems to be lacking so far.

I'll just leave this here...

Hemsky + Smid + conditional pick (upon signing miller) for Myers + Miller.

I think it's a pretty fair trade on both sides.

Wonder what was going through his mind when he said it. Very little, I suspect.

do you thnk it is even slightly possible that this was an english issue more than an attitude issue?

The Sabres are more interested in prospects and picks than older mid-level players.

I'd say 3rd rounder, but possibility of moving up upon signing of miller would be a good deal. Edm needs to get rid of contracts though to take those players.

With that proposal of mine, the difference is only taking on 3.5 mill (i believe?)

So Myers+Miller= Smid and 3rd rounder, no way. Buf would never do that, it doesn't fit their rebuild.

No, EDM would still have to include hemsky, they'd be over the cap im pretty sure.

Let me try and re-work this then... I forgot EDM traded the 2014 2nd rounder.

So Myers+Miller for Hemsky+Smid+2015 2nd (Conditional 1st if miller signs an extension)
