Remember the summer of 2011 when Darcy Regier basically promised that the Sabres would land a #1 center?

He will deal with teams that have salary cap issues and land a couple of good players.

Absurd. Rather keep Hodgson, who is 5-6 years younger.

Stupid, stupid idea.

Fun fact Semin is a career plus player...fun fact #2 Hodgson is not....fun fact #3 Semin put up 19 points playing in 57 games last season, Hodgson 13 in 78, fun fact again 2 seasons ago was the only season Hodgson outscored Semin (by 2 points and playing in 7 more games), Semin has scored over 20 goals 7 times in his career Hodgson once, Semin has scored over 3 three times and 40 once, Hodgson's career high is 20.

Semin's value is and will get higher than Hodgson's especially come deadline time if both players return to form. Former 30 goal scorers fetch more at the deadline than an underperforming still developing player, not to mention Semin's contract is shorter than Hodgson's.

Fun fact, Semin played with the Staals...fun fact, Hodgson did not.

Everyone is throwing the word fun around too liberally. Nothing mentioned has been fun.
