Are we the Buffalo Eichel's now? Jack has issues with Kane, ew trade Kane for his old college linemate.

Resign Pouliot and that's a win IMO.
- SABRES 89

sharks don't view Kane as a rental

for what it's worth
- homiedclown

Which makes the trade even worse.


I can't believe Pouliot didn't get traded(yet). That's a fail. If anyone pissed and moaned about Murray not trading Kulikov last year, you can not be happy that a guy with actual value didn't get dealt, if he indeed did not get dealt.

other than on here i have not seen that it is lottery protected if it is a first.. is this out there somewhere?
- IndianaSabresFan

If not thats a win for us

but I thought I saw DD post it

Which makes the trade even worse.

He has a strike with me

Anyone saying the Sharks don't view Kane as a rental are delusional. You can't say in one breath his baggage is what lowered his value and then say but the Sharks are on-board with him beyond this season.

Yes. Sounds weak but would he be worth more? I think I am just looking for more moves in general because it's the only exciting part of the Sabres season.
- Simple

I don't know much he's worth, but if we were serious about him I think we could have beat a 5th, a 5th is worth squat.

Kane and Eichel were very friendly, often going out with each other around Buffalo. Don't believe everything you read on the site.....

Which makes the trade even worse.

He didn't. It's leaked out he is staying.

Reilly went to Montreal. Buff was runner up, just like everything else.
- Simple

He’s a bust
Can’t play defense
No big deal we didn’t get him

Yes, so he saw first hand what a knucklehead Kane is off the ice.

Folks that love Botts wont see anything wrong with any move or non-move he makes.
- PrinceChill

Exactly. He looks like a smacked ass when he came out with enormous demands for what he was looking for in return for Kane.

"we got a good one"

He has a strike with me
- GERBE!!!75PTS

You've said this about 10 times, so does he have one strike or 10 strikes now? And if it's only 1 strike, what happens to him when he gets 3 strikes on your scoreboard?

I’m hearing TB sending to NYR: Libor Hajek, Brett Holden, Vladislav Nemestnikov, 2018 1st round pick, conditional second round pick. Confirmation to follow.
- Stripes77

TB wins that trade

I don't know much he's worth, but if we were serious about him I think we could have beat a 5th, a 5th is worth squat.

Which is why we shouldn't be up in arms about not getting one for Pouliot or a 7th for Girgensons.

Right. I am just looking for moves as I recently stated, this is the only exciting part of the season!

Kevin Smith had a massive heart attack last night

Almost died

No poop?

He didn't. It's leaked out he is staying.

I will take your advice and not believe this.
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Its not just about kane dude!
I have said this for weeks.
Its the whole picture not just kane.
If our free agents walk after this year, today was a total debacle imo.
- TheHank

Trading Pouliot, Gorges, etc for late rounds picks would’ve meant we’d have to bring guys up from Rochester

I’m gonna assume that keeping Roch together was more important than a couple of 6ths
I’d have liked to see them moved too,
but i also don’t mind that line of thinking
Obviously he wanted to make Rochester a priority this year
Not surprised that’s continued
Are u?

If not thats a win for us

but I thought I saw DD post it
- GERBE!!!75PTS

What does it matter? Botterill is about the only moron that would sign Kane to an extension after he found out he won one of the lottery draws.

I’d rather Bailey, Baptiste, etc be in the lineup next year over Pouliot
He’s ok
But if we are gonna stink again,
might as well give a kid the icetime
- jdfitz77

Agreed

No poop?
- Wetbandit1

Yeah in between shows last night

Had a widow maker

Was very lucky

Which is why we shouldn't be up in arms about not getting one for Pouliot or a 7th for Girgensons.
- Zschalberg

I never claimed Pouliot or Girgs was worth so little.

Which makes the trade even worse.

Kane isn't very good, thats what made the deal bad
