Yashin was a (frank)ing wasted talent. He screwed himself over, Ottawa screwed him over, his agent screwed him over (by placing WAY too much emphasis that he was a megastar, which he really wasn't). Ottawa should have nutured him and not (frank)ing him over while giving preferential treatment to Daigle and Bonk. Yashin could have been to the Senators what Alfie was had all three of player, GM, and agent calmed the (frank) down.

Yeah it's a shame but oh well. (frank) the 90's isles were the biggest poopshow

Yeah but at that age and with that type of Leadership. Toews has a Messier type of leadership quality. JT I can see possibly becoming better than Toews though.

Agreed. The Islanders are where the Oilers should be at this point. Great forwards, moderate defense, good goaltending. The biggest differences are that the Islanders have an elite center in Tavares and Oilers have Hall, and the Blueline/crease is slightly better with the solid vets backing up talented blue liners and Halak>Scrivens.

absolutely, I wouldn't want to lose a future stud dman like that, but if the Islanders falter for some reason and that pressure to make the playoffs creeps in, teams do some really rash trades

Ya when the owners get involved its pretty much game over for that team.

What actual fact he made none. Mine where and are 100% spot on you arnt getting a star/ potential star for nothing very simple. The team trading for star player always overpays and if you dont they dont get traded. Why would Buffalo do a deal to get ride of myers for nothing?

Good try trying to stick up for a fellow fan but you all know im right.

- jake24242

If you actually read my last post I stated that I never said I would trade a 3rd for Myers. My offer was Klefbom, a 2016 1st and a conditional 2 or 3 from this year. Im done arguing.

But Buffalo doesn't have to move myers so anyone getting him will have to overpay or he stays a saber. So your choice is stay bad and keep your pick and keep drafting high or make a trade in which you will overpay in any situation because everyone knows the oilers are desperate.

overpay for myers or you will stay bad.

who the fuk are these guys that come up with this nonsense? too much dreger

He's in the Czech leagues. He fizzled out after the lockout and was criticized for not caring about his game.. never really turned into a big scorer, don't think he ever broke 30 goals. He had a solid two-way game, but was lackadaisical about his overall play.

Would you give them Hall Eberle Nuge for him? or LD and this years first and Petry and another prospect as was proposed by them?

Maybe we should bring him in. You know. "veteran presence"

I barely remember him doing anything outside of Ottawa. I guess there's a reason for that!

No thats like 3 stars. But it wouldn't be for Klefbom and a first. Im sure they would ask for yak and a 2nd in this year or first and next years draft. That would be the overpayement and oilers hang up the phone. And both teams move on for now.

Hall's got some chicken legs

Its just the angle/lens. Halls got plenty of leg power.

- ChetManly

He played for the Habs and the Preds for a few years each but did (frank) all with both teams. I wouldn't recommend bringing in him. If you want someone who was drafted in the early 1990s to come in, get physical, and provide leadership, Bertuzzi is available.

And that was my point, the sabres fan was asking a ridiculous price and it made no sense.

I can see that you confuse easily.


overpaying for question marks is certainly not the slam dunk answer.
and attempting to get max value and protect assets is good business.

your contention here is nothing new. we've heard it all before. its typical media stuff without much substance or thought behind it

I welcome original thought. but these trolls who come with this bs cant be taken seriously. "the only way u get better is to lose a trade"!!!
