Neither is a good option. The only reason it has worked out for the hawks is because they've got guys like Keith on ridiculously good value deals that don't exist in the league anymore. That cap space should be dedicated to things like finding another top pairing d-man or 1st line RW.

Via Clark County: A criminal complaint was filed today charging Jarret Stoll with one count of Possession of Controlled Substance (Felony).

One other update. Filing shows that that the controlled substance was cocaine.

Just toss him in the Voynov cap space pile.

Soooo just like Malone, I'm gonna guess Stoll's career is over.

Salary space isn't what is keeping us from getting a 1st line RW. Unfortunately they just don't go on trees. I've come around on Crawford. Sure, he has a great team in front of him but the guy made all of the saves.

This is just the Vegas thing being formalized after results of the testing shows that substance he possessed was in fact "controlled"

lol oh no not at all. That's just my aggressive sense of humor.

He's a one year wonder, I myself just wouldn't blow my load to sign the guy. Like we did with Leino. I mean yeah, he could be pretty great, or he could be that guy floating around on waivers.

And if one does become available we'll be left out because we dedicated 6 mil to a goalie who probably doesn't deserve it.

I think goaltending should be looked at short term till we have all the pieces up front. Then you can figure out how much you can dedicated to goaltending.

Weve have had quite a large sample size of having a good goalie and bad scoring and the results speak for why Id rather have better scoring and a lesser goalie.

I see what you did there

I hope he does and shuts that (frank)er up

reality, I see him as a thornton type

15 goales, 35 helpers if he is anchoring the second line this season with say moulson and ennis as his wing men

(im back) wow are you still going off about Reinhart putting up 50 points?? (you even changed your location like a child) You do realize that not once did I say he could not do it. I said its not realistic to expect those numbers out of a rookie on a bad team. Yet somehow you interpreted that as "sam reinhart sticks" or sam reinhart is a "bust". YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE SAYING THIS. I like Sam Reinhart alot but I think its more realistic to get 35ish points out of him this year. Do i think he could put up 50 points?..sure but im not counting on it next year on THIS team

In LU of prison term he should have to serve community service where he coaches a misfit youth hockey team, steal the best player in the league away from his former coach who somehow hadn't aged is 30 years.

You're not the only one, you've missed a lot, we don't care what you think, let it go

I think that pretty much sums it up.

Who would have thought a guy that out scored RNH in juniors could have the same type of rookie season as him in the NHL...

Word has it that Cam Atkinson might be available.

Would you swap McCabe straight up for him?

I'll take Kerby Rychel.

This guy's a chump and he's gotten very little right, but I'd rather discuss the deal than it's validity.

Sabres Insider ‏@InsideSabres 3m3 minutes ago
Sources say that the #Sabres have called the #Rangers and have offered a 2nd(31), a 4th and Chad Ruhwedel to the #Rangers for Cam Talbot.

Who does 31, 4th and Chad for Talbot?
