Nash can motor.

The worst idea this franchise can have is trading a bunch of players away for another Kane type of forward (this is not meant to criticize him)

We can't do it.

Stat-wise, Nash IS a Kane type forward.

Hall at 18 had 22 goals in 65 games.

He if didn't get hurt so much, he's a top 5 winger

So the same thing that a lot of players here are criticized for. being injured too much.....

They really are extremely similar players when it comes to useful production.

player x is 31
player y is 24

If you can get Nash for a 3rd round pick, why not do it?

I saw this earlier but I never thought The Fourth Period was worth much

Sabres legit shot at Stamkos. Leafs, Wings, Lightning (still) and Habs on outside

I don't get my info from the 4th period and didn't know anything was posted there, I hardly read that web site, is it any good ?

Is this like a 'if you can do it, do it' hypothetical or a realistic proposal that the Rags would actually consider if the Sabres 3rd was offered?

But to answer your question at face value, yes I take Rick Nash for a 3rd round pick if I lose out on better more long term players.

I have read an article or two there before but it was locking up my computer for some reason and I just never went back since.

They may not get much more, it is basically a huge cap dump. The Rags can't afford him.

A year prior to last 79gp 42g 27a 69pts

then last year.. 60gp 15g 21a 36pts

Hope it isn't a real bad sign. But his contract is for only
2 more years at 7.8m. Will run out just in time for Jack and Sam to get paid.

Get them to Hold 900K.
They still get 6.9MM in relief.

You may have to send them a warm cheap body in return as well.

Alternate side of the coin with acquiring Nash...
If the Sabres do so, have they just enabled the Rags to sign Vessey?

He could be the winger that Jack needs.

I don't like the idea at all. I think the Rangers are looking to move him for good reasons, and I think there is far greater productivity in the market - with youth - for far less cost.

It's another beauty pageant name in my view.

Disagree, I cant see it costing more than a mid-round pick and a roster player (3rd liner)

Tuff call being that I would hate that we helped out the Rangers ... Productivity would be hard to get from an alternative player . Also hoping the fall off last season was a glitch.

I can't see any team taking him at full price. Or being able to afford him at full price.
