I was laughed at when I wanted to extend him in november

I believe I was one laughing...not about Samson, but rather CJ. Evert bone in my body said Ulmark or Leiw would be up by game 41 to save his ass. I admit defeat, good call sir.

'Myers is in need of two surgeries, most significant is a hip (16-20 week recovery). Also needs a knee surgery, but that has to happen first.'

regardless of who won the trade, rough to see everyone in the deal with injuries

With Nelson, Guhle and Ruhwedel


I am not sure there is a spot for Pysyk on this roster next season

- homiedclown


Ruhwedel over Pysyk? Come on.... Pysyk hasn't been spectacular but he's been better in his own end than Bogosian by a country mile. Bogosians grit and recent offensive production have covered that up a bit but Pysyk will be on this team next year unless he's traded. Nelson will probably be in Rochester and depending on if Murray brings in any top 4 LHD in trades or FA Guhle will probably be in juniors again. Even though he should be able to play in the AHL (But that's another argument entirely...

Edmonton will call your injuries and young players and raise you no effort or skill in their own end.

Myers misses a lot of time...part of that is because of how massive he is and how he plays...different type of game Kane plays but both get hurt and miss significant time every year...

I'm assuming he could have played through it. He didn't leave injured last game

Fasching (with No. 52 on his helmet) and Nelson (No. 34) both on the ice for #Sabres practice.

Myers with chronic hip and knee problems and he had major issues in his game. GMTM is smarter than the average HB whiner, discuss.

I am convinced most people have no idea how to evaluate the play of a defenseman going back to the disrespect for Bill Hajt, Richard Schmelick, Sekera, the total overrating of Myers and total dissing of Bogo's game.

I'll be back later boys

Agreed. Whatever talent-killing agent is in that Edmonton water will eventually prevail. Hopefully McDavid is a Poland Spring man.

We should crowd-fund a retirement bribe for Moulson. I wonder how much it would take...

I'm not doing the math.

My stance on pysyk aside, Ruhwedel has been overlooked for a while now. Not saying he's some blue chip guy but when you think about the d-men they've used on the big club over the past few years...

If you put Pysk down there he'd look like he was on another level too... Not blasting Ruhwedel. He obviously could take 25's spot right now and probably out play Franson too but Pysyk has played all right in the NHL and does things that other D on this team can't do.

A 18 yo prospect and a college kid, neither of whom have an nhl game undar their belt, over Pysyk and Weedy? Not me.
