Well.... we will have 1st overall for sure now...

Is it McDavid this year or who is the top 3 likely? Nylander

There is no way sabres average two goals a game now.
A team that never scores is gonna score less. Trade was good. Sucks real bad being season ticket holder
- hafgod

We will score more. Vanek was doing next to nothing and bringing this team down. That's why he was moved now. He was basically pouting. Never seen a player float so much

I think this puts Miller watch to defcom 5. He will most likely want out now for sure. He just might waive his NTC

I told ya that Moulson and a 1st was on the table last year for Vanek.....
- Homer

I remember okposo for Stafford being mentioned?

McDavid is 2015 Most likely Sam Reinhart

Kevin Freiheit: Report: Vanek traded to NYI
- KevinJames

Islanders will sign both Moulson and Vanek in the offseason lol

I'm friends with one of the Kings pro scouts, that's how I know they arent a fan of his.
- Homer

Everyone knows that they werent fans. But I guess you know best that they still arent. Vanek woulda been sick on Kopi's wing. But dont think we coulda gave up that kind of return.

that too, what a joke Darcy didnt do that

The fuse is lit !!

McDavid is 2015 Most likely Sam Reinhart
- Stripes77

Is he a D man though?

Surprised Buffalo fans are so pleased by this deal.

Thought Vanek would get a better return. Not a fan of Moulson at all.

Likely a 15-20th overall for the 1st rounder. Guess the 2nd in 2015 could end up being a high 2nd...

There cant be a greatvmarket dor a 1-7 goalie with a like 4 gaa

They couldn't afford both lol vanek is pretty much a done deal to sign with the wild.

Whether you like Vanek or not, he's a 30-40 goal guy on the Sabres and maybe more with a number 1 center. We could go the Myers route if you want and how he's a shell of his rookie year and his horrible contract.

Vanek= cancer

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

(frank)ing Super Cat!!!!

I still want Darcy gone though...

Terrific trade for the Sabres.

From the sounds of it the Miller deal is all but done too.

- JVince117

Center
1.) Sam Reinhart, C
2.) William Nylander, RW
3.) Aaron Ekblad, D
4.) Leon Draisaitl, C
5.) Michael Dal Colle, LW

What does Myers have to do with Vanek being traded?

Where he succeeds in trades he lacks in free agency. I'd keep him on as an adviser but bring in someone else.

Vanek= cancer

Moulson=cure? Maybe not him but indirectly could be dealt for another 1st?

that too, what a joke Darcy didnt do that
- Homer

darcy said suffering

What does Myers have to do with Vanek being traded?
- sbroads24

Nothing but you constantly rag on him for many reasons and you can rag on Myers for the same ones. Vanek brings a hell of a lot more to the team then Myers does.
