He was waiting for all the hype with Richards and then he grabbed Leino, why I don't know. Some players are better in the systems they are in and when you sign them to a big contract, sometimes it doesn't work out.

I was told before that during practice Lindy kept moving Leino around and he looked over to the person my uncle is friends with and he said " No matter where I put him (Leino ), he still F$$KIN Stinks" .

Whoa. Let's no get crazy now.

Fleury is a good goalie for sure. It would cost a lot to trade for him.

I am just against it since they already gave up a first for Lehner.

- rmiethaner


Fleury is in fact a good player. We could him for free if we wanted him. Just look at how disposable these guys are - Fleury goes down and a rookie steps in and rips it up. It happens just about every year. This is why the Bills aren't going anywhere any time soon - you can't over-value players at certain positions.

I used to work for Pesci's, now Brando's on the corner of Oliver and Robinson and people who lived on Ruie or North used to order from us and get it delivered. I'm like why the (frank) are you calling us, don't you know a better place is like right down the street? It's a little more expensive, but when you're getting pizza delivered from a place 5 minutes from your house and you're not too drunk to drive you're not really thinking about spending an extra $8 for your pizza order.

Murray was ahl player of the year last season and has been absolutely brilliant since coming up. Maybe he ll be a flash in the pan, maybe he ll be Roy ... Who knows? Rumor is Calgary offered Bennett in a package for Murray at the deadline and we're basically told he's untouchable. Who knows? What is clear is MAF is a really good goaltender ( borderline HOF ) and the only reason the pens would consider moving him is because they love Murray.... Buffalo is not getting price, Hank, renne, rask, holtby or Schneider ... And if Anderson becomes available he would probably cost more... Do you really think buffalo is better with lehner? Like I said the 8 is a lot to give up ... But fleury, pouliot and a second is a lot

The list of "flash in the pan" goalies that won the cup is a LOT longer than the list of top goalies that won the cup. Of all of the top goalies you listed only one has a cup (and Boston regrets overpaying to sign him).

I am fine with Lehner or 20 other goalies being in my net. I'd be fine with Fleury in my net. I wouldn't give up anything to get him.

There is no way that Calgary would give up Bennett for Murray. The Pens would have taken that an laughed (and I like Murray just fine).

To me Lehner is a huge ????
I am not sure if he can stay healthy.

Those are two good examples (and I like them both). It isn't so much the overpayment of players as it is the not drafting of what makes the world go round (qb's).

No.

And yes, the Sabres are better with Lehner than giving up the 8th overall for a guy who will continue his decline. Teams don't win by using back-to-back 1st round picks on goalies.

I hate to stick up for the Bills, because they should get 0 slack, but I actually think Whaley is excellent. They seem to have an actual plan in place.

This roster is immensely talented.

Fleury is not declining .. In fact his numbers have been better the last two seasons. As I said the pens think Murray is the real deal ...make yes Calgary did offer Bennett in a package for him..but Ok point taken . I would be reluctant to trade the 8 overrall for fleury as well ...

I would laugh if CGY offered Bennett straight up for Murray let alone in a package for him. That sounds ridiculous. There had to me more coming from Pitt.

Casey Bailey was the Toronto guy I was thinking of, but I think my point stands though. We have been pitching UFA's on Buffalo for a while now and have yet to land any. Sure, they might have personal reasons for signing with other towns, but hey we were sold that, "Pegula always gets his man," so fare he's at least 0-5.
- sskkoo1


Let's out it this way ..........no we didn't land any of those names but if it wasn't for Pegula, none of them wouldn't have even answered the phone call.

That makes no sense at all and it's hardly believable but that's just me

I would like to know what the packages is because Pittsburgh has nothing in terms of prospects and they had no first-round picks so what could they offer that Calgary was ready to say yes to
