They don't need to sell toronto. they will have loyal fans forever.

If they truly do rig it, it goes to carolina or arizona.

McDavid in Toronto makes no impact in attendance but they'd sell truck loads of jerseys and tv ratings would balloon. In my opinion he'd make little to no difference in Arizona, nothing is going to get those people to go to the games. Carolina? Sure I guess he probably makes a difference there. The money to be made off McDavid in Toronto is incredible though.

If you look at it as Myers for Bogo and Armia, Lemieux and a 1st for Kane, it makes quite a bit of sense. #Sabres

In that way..... We did pretty damn good.

You have to give to get. Were you really that satisfied with buffalos roster as it was? You got the best two roster players in the deal

IMO, they are about equal.

Bogo is tougher which Murray likes.

Murray has a vision, I trust him.

Where was Murray when Bogosian was drafted? Did he "just miss out" on being able to grab him? Maybe he always coveted him, who knows. Does seem very linear to me

- Herzeleid


not sure how you can say that.

bogosian has a bit better stats and played against better competition but is on the clearly better team.

bososian is 400k cheaper per year.

pretty much identical players.

BUF has cancelled practice for today. More trades believed to be happening. One would be a goalie to DAL IMO


Chris Stewart to Boston could be happening today too according to multiple sources

If I saw Murray on the street it would take a lot of restraint for me not to punch him in the face over Lemieux. In addition I don't like Kane.

We got Kane so I'm okay with it now. I always felt we were hurting the D core by trading Myers and not getting a top 4 D back. Now we have a guy that is better atm and probably will always be.

I'm with you on this one 100%
I don't like the type of person Kane is.
I don't like him moving Lemieux.

I think the thing that makes me like this trade is that we included stafford and not stewart. I think he can fetch more for him. After this trade though, I almost hope he signs long term here. Kane-McEichel-Stewart would be incredibly difficult to play against.
