hahaha i expected the comments. But at least it sounds like something is happening. And yes it is with the sabres, that's all i talk to.
For the record, i am a huge hockey fan, but not the most knowledgeable per say. But my source is in the buf scouting area

Glad he didn't get fired yet.

If Murray was GM, he would have offered Shatty 8 mil, right?

Hence is reluctance to share certain info. He's very picky with what he tells me. To be honest, by the time i hear from him, it can even be old news.

He woulda offered 10.


But in all seriousness, Murray getting Okposo and that Risto deal of 5.4M for 5 years. That's the best things he did while here.

Kane resigned and ROR over 65 pts and I'll add them.

Here's a question for ya to pass on. We're seeing a lot of these scouts being let go. Any knowledge as to why some of them are being relieved?

I was hoping for Vanek and Daley, and JB clearly did a better job. All his moves so far seem solid, and he's given up so little. Truth be told, I wasn't excited when we fired Murray but JB has won me over so far. He's given Housely the horses, now Housely has to get them to race

I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little sad to see Foligno go. I really liked his game this past year. However, had you told me last week that he'd basically be flipped for a top 4 defender, I wouldn't have believed it could happen.

I'm happy with the move overall.

Could it be the trade that happened earlier or more?

Me too. Earlier this week I was advocating for a 3 year, 2.5 mil contract. But we also needed to shakeup a stagnant bottom 6. Now with Pommer, there's really no place for Gio, so 3/6 will be different. I think that's important too

What it should be is a cap dump for Moulson. Then start looking for LWers.
