Gotta love the Lemieux situation. He's pissed he doesn't get drafted in the first round. So we pick him first in the second round, so let's reward that team by never playing for them even though every other team passed up on me already.

i hope if he ever makes it to the nhl that someone explodes him against the boards when we play him

What about Moulson, Kane, Bogo, Lehner, Gorges, Gionta, Sabrestooth, Darcy, Lindy & Nolan?

Can you really compare the 7th rounder, 2nd in 2017, and 5th for Flynn to the 31st, 21st, and 25th pick?
- sbroads24


In that same bunch of picks Murray acquired a 2nd and 2 3rds.

I'm not weighing any picks - of course they sent out better picks since 2 were 1st rounders.

Out: 1, 1, 2, 2, 7
In: 2, 3, 3, 5, 7

it sounds good to spin a trade, but I seriously doubt this "rumor"

Interesting how quickly you changed your tune. You were pro moving those picks for nhl players not too long ago. Why go back on that now?

I never liked the sens trade


I never liked "throwing" in Lemieux on the Kane trade

I am fine with Bogo and Kane in and Myers, staff, armia, late first out

Kane is underperforming
Bogo is what he is

AJ Jakubec, TSN 1200 host, said he wasn't surprised that Lemieux was part of a package, as Jakubec was told Lemieux would not sign.

Not surprised to see Brendan Lemieux involved in Kane/Myers blockbuster. His agent (Claude) told the Sabres Brendan wasn't signing in BUF.

— AJ Jakubec (@AJonSports) February 11, 2015
@James_J_Gordon @BlackAcesOtt Don't know the exact reason. Claude just didn't want him playing there.

— AJ Jakubec (@AJonSports) February 11, 2015

Its was reported by people outside the organization. Claude expected Brendan to make the team considering there were spots open for him and when it didnt happen the relationship soured

We are also forgetting about the 3rd moved out for Nuevirth and the 2 2nds move out for Fasching at the previous deadline.

He also acquired the 1st dealt in the Kane trade for Miller.

He's moved out quite a few quality picks.

Have to revisit that after game 82. As much as I'd like another top 3 pick, I don't think this team stays there. If nothing else, a lot of teams around them have plenty of talent to sell whereas we're more likely to stand pat unless negotiations with McGinn fall apart.


Edit: healthy Ennis, Pysyk and Lehner could help with that as well.

if he is so good, why didn't he sign with the jets so he could make their team this year


smells fishy

you can't compete for a roster spot, if you don't sign


if he wanted to make the club, he should have signed and earned a spot in preseason

They didn't "throw" Lemieux into that trade. Winnipeg's biggest stipulation was that he HAD to be part of it. If they weren't getting him, they weren't making the deal.
