You could make anyone trade down if the package is right ..

Ya, but you'd prob have to really overpay
Remember Murray tried to get into the mid1st round last year & no one would trade down

They can afford to move a forward, they have like 12 good ones for gods sake.

Nino
Granlund
Vanek
Pommer
Koivu
Parise
Zucker
Coyle

They are loaded

Who is this Vanek guy you speak of? I heard he got yelled at yet again by another coach

I could see that, although I don't remember too much of him in his prime
- sbroads24



Won a cup with 3 different teams.

Had a knack for scoring.

Great in his own end.

Didn't shy from a hit or hitting.

Very good skater.

Made players around him better.

Very good pp guy(400+ pp points).

Of all the players I have strong opinions on, I was dead on with him. What a waste of talent. He could be a perennial 80 point player

He isn't that good.............. good but not anything to think he's a " world beater "
- SABRES 89



The NYI almost made him a bust but he found his game with the wild

he is going to hit maybe around 26 goals this year and he is very annoying to play against he will hit you

He's the best laziest player in the game, the Wild handed him a gift when they signed him.

Nino Niederreiter for Enroth?
- SABRES 89



I probably would.


Nino knows how to score goals and isn't shy to use his body.


He has hardly and assists.

Is Eichel really considered great in his own end?

chris stewart ( late 1st - 2nd round pick)
drew stafford (late 1st - 2nd round pick)
cody hodgson ( 2nd round pick )
Jhonas Enroth ( 2nd - 3rd round pick)
marcus foligno ( 1st round pick )
Myers( 1st round pick +++)
Kaleta ( 6th round)

- gerbe75pts


I'm hoping we can get Subban from Boston for Stewart.
He was a late 1st round pick I believe, so his value shouldn't be too high
And I'm not convinced we have our goalie of the future...
Most of our goalie prospects are having down seasons

He's a solid two way player.

Something that can be worked on.

They would take a case of 30wt oil for Hodgson if they could, what's that tell you.
- SABRES 89


Its mind-bottling how he's struggling so much offensively
Have u heard that they'd like to move him?
Or are u just assuming?

Maybe, he looked average in his own end during the world juniors (well the games that i watched anyway). He's not a liability there but I wouldn't have him out there to kill a penalty up by 1 with a minute left in the game.

IMO they couldn't move him fast enough but that contract is horrid.

On a more balanced team his defensive liabilities could be hidden and allow him to do what he does best, all "O",

Personally, I'd rather see them just buy Hodgson out.
