what time is the deadline over with, is it 3 ET?
- mhp

Yes, put trades sometimes don't hit media until 3:45 or 4:00. If I remember right, the Hodgson deal wasn't announced until 3:45 or so.

I'd move Hoff for a decent return. We're in full rebuild here so he doesn't really fit. Myers on the other hand.....

I may be in the minority but I'm not ready to give up on Myers. Still too much upside. He's a great skating big man with skill. He's still growing into his own body.
- Pairo11

I agree. I don't want to move Myers either. If they can get him to play consistently the way he has going back to a week or so before the Olympic break, he's going to be a pain to play against for a long time.

That's your opinion.
I believe he most certainly does give depth. IMO
- BuffaloHardHat

touche, however think from past toronto games those would have had a good shot at selling out. But this year think maybe half get sold out.

He is tall too.

As @DennisTFP reported last night, the Sabres appear to have backed off their demand for Toffoli in exchange for Moulson. Talks continue.

They don't sell out in Toronto either.
- HonkFortheGoose

Toronto fans don't care about the Bills. They care about the NFL. Rogers would make more money having a game at Rogers Centre that involved different teams every year, similar to the arrangement in London. It might be different if we were talking about the team from the early 90s, but even then, I'm not sure.

Weak, why bother moving him.

Exactly. I didn't like the arrangement to begin with.

Agree, from someone whos close to a sports merobelia store most of the Canadien fans buy the non bills team stuff the most.

Any idea if they have other good prospects?

what time is the deadline over with, is it 3 ET?
- mhp

I think so...

So it would be wise to leave the boards from about 3:30 until tomorrow. Should be ugly regardless of what happens.

so the west coast teams have only till 12:00 local time.

The Moulson deal could be the last one they do today.

The NFL is popular in Canada mostly because of it's legal to bet on up there.

That's kind of crappy for them.

Not "done". It's just for this year is what is being reported.
And to be honest, the Bills can't sell out the 7 they have so what's the big deal really?
It's just 1 more game they won't sell out.
- BuffaloHardHat

Are you for real??????? Really??? The Bills don't sell out because the team has sucked for 10 years. If the Bills ever become contenders again, they will sell out every game. A game at the Ralph beats a game at the morgue they call the Rogers Centre.

Yeah, what's the big deal to play at your home stadium instead of at a neutral site.

cant it be a tenative agrement and be hashed out shortly after. Or are they just not told ot media right away

- hubie

I loved the Bills at one time.
13 years of being the laughing stock of the NFL has taken a toll on my affection for them.
If the team relocated tomorrow , I wouldn't bat an eye.
They sell hope every year and my hope tank is running on fumes with that organization.
It's like a one sided relationship where you give all the time just to get poop on in return.
Has been for the last 13 years at the very least.

If the Bills were good, and I mean really good, you'd see a lot better atmosphere, mostly because many fans from down here would figure out a way to shell out money to go see the game up there, because it's worth watching.

Any idea if they have other good prospects?
- Rally_Shots

I'd say that goalie who backs up quick but unless we move Halak and our defense magically improves overnight I don't see that move being made. What is the likelihood we trade for Nolan's kid ?

Any idea if they have other good prospects?
- Rally_Shots

The only ones I'm familiar with are Tanner Pearson and Jake Muzzin but I have read other posters talk about Linden Vey.

Any idea if they have other good prospects?
- Rally_Shots

Tanner Pearson was playing with Toffoli in the A and is still producing without him. Could be Pearson for Moulson? Maybe get a 3rd or 4th as well?
