Not sure what we could get for Hodgson.

They are desperate for a semi-decent center though.

Maybe one of their prospects and a pick?

Do we take an interest in Yakupov?

Once Grigorenko gets here (should be here already) could Yak and Grigs be a nice tandem, along with Armia? Thinking down the road a bit probably.

Man Hodgson really sucks now he is useless .

I think he will get moved .. Jordan Eberle would be nice but he makes 6m a year what kind of bullpoop is that

I was watching him closely on a few shifts and was just awful with the puck. He is struggling with his confidence atm.

When I'm old and gray...oops I'm there now lol.

Seriously I would say he's here this year and next. Probably let go April '16.

I don't put any blame on him right now, the players gotta come together as a group and give a 60 min effort. They need to build a little confidence. Squeezing the sticks atm.

I'm trying not to judge players until the 10 games mark of the season but mezarous is making this tough for me. Glad to see zemgus dropping the gloves yesterday.

Who cares. Ted is the short term coach. Yakupov would be a long term move

He does not respond well to being coach . Ask Cody Eakins , Not a big practice player.

I would like the sabres to get yakupov, if the price is right. I just assume they want more than I am comfortable parting with.

He may be struggling to start, but he's worth/will be worth every penny of that 6 mil. I'd take him here any day but I assume the conversation starts and ends with Myers.

He's been mishandled as well, eakins is a mediocre coach at best. And from what i've read and heard his work ethic isn't bad at all. Doesn't make up for the fact that he may or may not have issues with coaching but I wonder if that's a response to the way he's been treated and what's been asked of him.

I might be too hard on mezarous. On the panthers goal he did lose a board battle but hodgson could have supported better than just swiping the stick. Also stafford turns the puck over at the blueline causing a mini 2 on 1 I guess I can't blame mezarous for taking a penalty on that play.

Funny how Eakins was the hot up and coming coach when Edmonton hired him .Leaf fans were crying over it . They thought he would be their next coach. I think Edmonton's problems are a lot deeper than Eakins. How has YAK been mishandled ? Doesn't want to practice . Does not want to play a responsible game. He did not get screwed around like Grigorenko . He is a candidate to just go home and take big bucks from KHL.

They are, no doubt about it but he is part of the problem. No he didn't get screwed like Grigorenko but he spent time on lines he shouldn't be on and asked to play roles he simply wasn't built for.

And the rumor about his practicing habits are just that. Everything that's been said about him suggests the contrary. He's been one of their better players this year as hard as it may be to believe. And he seems to put in a real effort every time he's out there.

Obviously can't know what's going on behind closed doors but I think the accusations of him being lazy and not being a team player are far fetched.

Stereotypes.

Yakupov is a documented hard worker.

I have repeatedly stated why I am not high on Tyler Myers so if you cannot grasp it at this point then you have a reading comprehension problem, since you and several others have repeatedly questioned my opinion of Myers and I have repeatedly provided adequate response and credible opinion as to why I am not only down on him as a player but feel it might be in the team's best interest to trade him while they can get a king's ransom in return. All the while repeatedly stating that I think he is the most skilled player on the team.

Bold 1: Expecting him to lead the league in shots + hits is not an adequate response.

Bold 2: You have flat out said he isn't the best on the team and that you think Risto has already surpassed him.
