doesn't this really mean 2 1sts and a 2nd?









because this all but solidifies the Sabres picking 1st at the draft

Just when it looks like the islanders have figured it out.

Stupid trade. Islanders get Smoked once again.

No need to move Moulson he will fight right in, I am happy with this


I am SABRES 89 and I approve this trade.

Vanek and Tavares, that's a scary combination.

I'm lost on this move (the picks made it a much better move) but aren't these 2 teams with UFA's that weren't staying with these respective teams anyway?

Exactly where is he now?? Obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed even though nobody had this going down tonight.

Not really. Watch Vanek this Johnny T. Paid a big price from the Buffalo end Like Moulson and the first and a second. The problem is Darcy is drafting and has not hyit on a forward in ten years.

Hey where is that guy that said Darcy wasn't working the phones??
- Stripes77



Well hey...

I'm a big enough man to admit when I am wrong.

Nice trade by Darcy.

Especially if you can get 1st rd pick for Moulson at the trade deadline.

Its a bit odd for the Islanders unless they address their goaltending situation. Vanek playing with Tavares is a scary combo

It seems to me that NYI would have had no problems resigning Moulson. Vanek, on the other hand, it's the worst kept secret in the NHL that he wants to go to Minnesota next year. I just don't get what Snow was thinking. This far from guarantees the Islanders a playoff spot and they're going to walk away with nothing after the season. That's a brutal trade.

Even if he gets a raise its cap room saved

Young talent getting time in the Sabres uniform: Check

A stockpile of draft picks upcoming: Check

Cap room available: Among the most in the league

Moulson would be insane to re-sign in Buffalo. he's 30, wants to win, not endure more rebuild years that are coming.

He'll be flipped at the deadline.
