Miller+ Grigs for Edmonton 1st and Hemsky.

No guarantees, but it is VERY likely he'll go to Minny.

This is what I've always thought. He's always seemed to want to go there.

As of now, the Sabres have five picks in the first two rounds of 2014 draft. Same as 2013. I'm going to need to my beauty rest.

What needs to happen is for Darcy to waive Stafford (because I truly don't think he is worth anything on the market) and re-sign Moulson to replace him....that is an improvement right away.

I'll tell you Sabres fans, your rebuild has been fun to watch. What does your next draft bring? 2 Centers, 2 D-men... 2 wings? 2 Goalies? Your in for a long few years but it will be worth it. And enjoy it too!

Not sure, but I was at the Florida and Tampa games. He looked like crap, going through the motions, and Rolston even benched him.
So maybe he already knew something was going on...

- Jawallstar1


I'm sure he knew that a deal was close with the Islanders because no doubt the Islanders spoke to his agent about resigning him before the deal or just asked if there was a chance he'd be interested in signing with them.

17 1st and second rounders between 2012 and 2015, most for a 4 year span in franchise history

Miller,
McNabb,
(or Myers)
2nd round in 2014
for
Yakupov
1st round 2015

- Orphen22

I'd say:

Miller and McNabb for Edmonton's 1st in 2015 and Ales Hemsky. Maybe throw in a piece or two on either side, but I think this will be the basis.

I liked Vanek had 4 jerseys and 1 game worn but I like Moulson. Would have liked Vanek to stay but wasn't to be.

Nope, they just signed Andersen to a two year extension, have Victor Fasth and John Gibson.

"blah blah blah, we'll get a ridiculous value for Vanek even though anyone in the league can sign him after this year" -Every Buffalo fan

"that's so stupid, you guys are overvaluing your players so much" -Me

I legitimately don't understand how Buffalo pulls off these robberies, this move just makes no sense for the Isles.

Moulson wasn't playing with Tavares this year... Moulson was on the 2nd line. I'd imagine JT would be pretty happy that he now has an elite LW to play with.

Vanek - JT - Grabner/Okposo is a pretty sexy line.

- LetsGoBuffalo75


Moulson and Tavares are very close though. Maybe even as close as Bozak and Kessel.

at the first two. Miller for a late 1st is the only one that would make sense.

Why does everyone want to move Grigs in all these deals.This make no sence at all Grigs aint getting moved.Darcy got everything I wanted and more with Molston.Say what you want about Darcy but he knows how to cut good deals in this league.

I liked Vanek but not as the team's best player. They should have had a better player as their leader/top talent. I also wasn't infatuated with Vanek because in a lot of games we hardly noticed him.
