You don't need to steal headlines to "win" anything. We aren't competing with Toronto. We're competing with Pittsburgh, Chicago, Washington and the other good teams.
- Buffalo--Sabres

Sadly, too long for a location.

I love that Dipietro gets 1.2m every year until 2029 . Thats better than winning the NYS lottery.

Only way it would have been better is if it happened to the Leafs or Bruins

Could be too high for what the other team wants to pay. Term too. Plus drives up the value cause he is signed already . Seems like a oxy.

Well the signing is contingent on making the trade. The team that gets the player gets extra term, the team giving up gets an asset. It wouldn't be a huge price. Probably a B or C prospect and a 2 or 3.

Yzerman would save face getting a first rounder for him and the Sabres would save $2 million a year and get him for a year longer.

It's a win win.

I'd do that.

Next years first could be anywhere. I'm anticipating 20-26 ?

Sorry to burst your bubble but

I don't know, having that ELC from next year's first round would be nice so we can rollover bottom 6 players like Chicago. Plus, like was said before - $2mil/year is another Foligno ... not a guy that you have to search high and low for.

Go back to the Leafs blog and enjoy your 1st round pick, why are you here

Sorry to burst your bubble but
- Aetherial

If Tampa signs him 8 years ..trades him to buffalo. It doesn't change .. he would be here 8yrs .

- Aetherial

Sign and trade deal. Pay attention. Yzermen could sign him before July 1st and trade him. He has until July 1st.

So again pay attention or just go back to your blog.

Why does it matter when there are players like Fasching Bailey and Baptiste still? Not to mention the other 2nd rounders?

Stamkos is more important.

I was never a fan, but this Johnny Manziel situation is really sad. Dude needs help.

Taking Nylander is gonna make things interesting

Gonna be a fun rivalry going forward

Yeah, some good decisions the last year or so.

Long road ahead though. Watching the talent in the last few rounds of the playoffs makes you realize how far away you are. I am also pretty apprehensive about the whole Andersen thing.

What did he do now?
- ImThatGuy

A ton of drugs. He's an addict

Unreal. I just saw that deal Arizona made - that might be the worst trade in NHL history...

I agree. Watching the playoffs made us think the same . Speed kills and we lack it to a degree.

Fun times ahead.

When we were contemplating drafting like 4th or 5th (before we finished last or won the lottery) I was thinking Nylander would be a decent pick. I think you guys are going to be pleasantly surprised. He might be the better of the two.

- Aetherial

That has been mentioned a couple months ago. regarding Nylander .

Congrats on your star center Gluck. Just don't be too sore when we kick you ass for the next few years .
