I'm sure EK9 could get a solid player From Anaheim not named Can Fowler

Who fills EK9 spot? The prospects we have are 2 more seasons away from maybe filling it.

I think you are overstating his value.

The concerns about his off ice stuff and his contract demands for next year are all true.
The Sabres are not the only team to know this.

Alex Nylander and Justin Bailey can fight for EK9's spot. This player has done nothing for this organization. I could say the exact same for Bogosian
- Acup2buff

He's done nothing for this organization? why don't you just say the entire league for that matter. I ask do you watch N.H.L. hockey? Kanes been maturing both on and off the ice. We got him at the right time. If he was somewhere else fans would be including Kane in the conversation of why couldn't T.M. have gotten him or include his name in players to aquire.

The rebuild is a lil ahead of scheduele.

P.S. What has Justin Bailey and Alex Nylander done for this organization? EK is proven.

Ok, That GM that really wants him, What does he have and will that Dman accept the trade if we want him?

Too many unicorns and rainbows to dream about in one sentence.

Who said it had to be defenseman with a new movement clause

There are some GM's out there that over value players did anyone here think we would land Cody at that time ? For kassian

Did anyone think in Calgary they get a very good defenseman in Dougie for picks

How did Cody turn out ? Kassian is at least playing

All of this debate about trading Kane, not trading Kane. At this moment in time, who won the Jets/Sabres trade? If it's true that the team who gets the better player wins the deal, then Murray won the trade.

Okay but at that time everyone here thought we were getting a franchise player don't lie
he had 18 goals was second in rookie scoring etc Vancouver Canucks fell in love with kassian

yes over the years both player suck but at the time their values were extremely high

- ImThatGuy

didnt say he was awful. I said trade him at highest value. We don't make playoffs this year, then he has a sub par year, contracts up and then he wants 6 million. That walk year you gotta sign #15 and #23 to long term deals

And we now have a franchise player lite that is producing . So trade him ?

It's like having a awesome GF and looking for a better one .

Nvm your not getting it ..

The argument was could Evander Kane get us as a top defenseman ..

I said who knows maybe a GM that we don't know about is in love with Evander Kane it would give up that asset that's why I brought up Cody

Everyone wants the young 18 year old even though they have a gorgeous 25 year old...

For once I would like to see this organization keep good players...

He had a lot of back issues. Not making an excuse but he couldn't keep up with the NHL game. AHL he would be making like 30k a year. Youth Hockey program with an NHL org? Much more money in that.

This is going to turn into Murray traded a #2 for Kane complaint filled board

We should've had Matthews/Laine. If only we didn't trade for ROR...

To further Cabin's point, this is like having a hot girlfriend and flaunting her around to lock down a hot house-wife.

I would rather have one of them than ROR...

Yes they were, and Hodgson led the Sabres in scoring the next year, which a lot of people seem to forget, which earned him that contract.

With all the talk that GMTM was looking to offload Kane , I'm sure he had convos with every GM. Good D are hard to find. Harder to get. Players like Kane are hard to find and just as hard to get.

Have you been watching this team?? Bailey has been better than expected on the top line IMO

If we didn't win that last game of the year we might have Laine right now

I was very excited to acquire him. Can't deny that.
