Great. Buff. Yeah, he can hit, and shoot, but that is all you get. We have enough big, and slow guys. Now we get one that doesn't have any hockey sense; to pinch or not to pinch, or to turn over the puck or not turn over the puck. I really don't see how he helps. Teams still can't decide if he is a D-man or an O-man. Nobody knows how to use him. Chicago gave up, and now the Jets may give up. Do we really need another problem child? Maybe if he can gain a few pounds, we could put him in goal. He would be so big that no pucks could get past him. Don't worry, he will be like Jaba, and just sit there. He wouldn't have to move at all...lol.
Get over it Homer, and stop sniffing around Buff. Nothing is out there right now, and you might as well wait until the playoff teams start looking for rent-a-players if you want to conduct a trade.

How long is it going to take for people to get past the notion that Byfuglien being a massive player who has played d makes him a true no 1 d man...

Hemsky for a 3rd Pick. Makes sense. Detroit love euros.
- Orpik44

Hemsky will be resigned before we accept a 3rd rounder for him.

Nope not drinking it at all. I'm just fed up with all the speculation trying to have fun with it.

Yakupov for Callahan.

That would be a good trade for the Oil.

- Orpik44

Of course all we could get for a 1st overall pick that led all rookies in points last year is a rental

hes got more speed and skill than anyone on the entire flames roster. id love to see a hemsky+ for Hjalmerson (sp?).. If he goes to detroit id like to see dekeyser come back just because it would be funny.

Besides, having more speed /skill than the average guy on the flames isn't saying a whole lot.

Yep. People see size, and grit, and go crazy. If Buff would focus on being a D-man first, he might make a a decent player. However, according to an article that was written when he was placed on the wing by the Jets, as an experiment, he actually preferred that position. So, why did they put him back on D again? Makes you wonder. Makes me wonder why the Flyers would be interested in him.
But, we paid the price for Bryz, so...... He was big, and tall. However, he wasn't very mobile. Everyone was excited about having Bryz around, until they found out that he was a spaceman, and could only stop pucks in front of him. If you get him moving, his crazy legs start going...lol. But, in his defense, he had our defense, and some lazy forwards...sob.

Do you know what reading comprehension is? Is that what I said? I said we will resign him if that's all we can get. (frank) people are stupid as (frank) these days.

IT's gonna be epic when you give him another $5 million + deal and then talk about trading him for this huge return for the duration of a 3rd contract.

On Girardi...

In a similar, but less crazy way, I still question if the Rangers are really willing to trade Girardi and a source today texted me that the Bruins made "quite a gesture leading me to believe the Rangers are either close to re-signing Girardi, close to dealing him elsewhere, or not interested in moving him at all.




Seriously?

At least they won't be talking about how the hockey universe is jealous of their youth and that any day now they'll be Cup contenders.
