He was paid to score goals and he did. #5 all time Sabre Goal Scorer, #10 all time in points. Sabres better hope they draft someone who can score like he could.

If T Pegs is allowing Darcy to make these moves thats a pretty good indication Darcy is on board for a while

Not sure he isn't still gone after the season though. He obviously does well trading.
I also would not be suprised one bit if Vanek resigns in NY.

He did well here. Like I have said I used to love me some Vanek too. 2010-2011 season changed that for me

since the start of the 09-10 season, moulson has more goals in the nhl then vanek

I don't know. He's a really big family guy and I can't see him wanting to raise his kids in the NYC area. I think the place he ends up is Minnesota.

I get the feeling Pegula had Darcy make the move to help relieve the "fire Darcy" pressure. Just a hunch.

Yea safe money says he tests FA and might not like NYC, I just wouldn't completely rule it out yet

Then Darcy wins.


Damn him. Why does he have to keep sucking me back in?!?

I think career wise he'd be better off staying with the Isles if he has good chemistry with Tavares. Minny doesn't have a center of that caliber on their team.

no it's kaleta's fault
- homiedclown

No get it right will you John Scott's fault !!! LOL

and i am tied at 418 with quick as my goalie shootout win i win or else i tie again

Kopitar scores the winner on stephen king

Honestly though, I think Vanek would just benefit from being on an offensive team. It's not like he's a sniper where he needs a good center to produce. He needs to be on a team with a good PP and obviously JT doesn't hurt

since the start of the 09-10 season, moulson has more goals in the nhl then vanek
- homiedclown

but 14 less points.

Vanek and Moulson resigned with the Sabres in the Offseason

funny koivu was a 60 point per year player, then gets paid

since then he gets parise and is still putting up points at the same pace when he had crap wingers

I think career wise he'd be better off staying with the Isles if he has good chemistry with Tavares. Minny doesn't have a center of that caliber on their team.
- HonkFortheGoose

If he plays with Tavares, he's probably going to have a pretty good year. possibly one of his best. He'll have to make the decision between big money and playing where he wants to raise a family.

but 14 less points.
- RynoBull

ironic, both players have been a -10 since then

Vanek> Moulson
But for the $$$ it's not that big of a drop off. Moulson is a solid 2nd liner. I hope he resigns for 4-5

Miller to the Preds for Forsberg if Rinne is out long.
