WTF

I told you there was another deal in the pipeline but nobody even listened to me...

but that may have been because I, myself said it was BS

Sabres include Gragnani in Hodgson-Kassian deal.

Grags/Kass for Hodgson

New blog in 5...4...3...

So they got a center and a #1 pick.

Why?

He's been right on about many things

Please Darcy... make sure you get rid of EVERY tough guy on our roster..

Boston will beat the sh.it out of us every single year

think about this... if Hodgson is a damn good player then why did they trade him for kassian/Grags both of whom we know haven't really shown us ANYTHING big YET!?

To Buffalo: Hodgson, Alexander Sulzer To Vancouver: Gragnani, Kassian,

don't know this guy.

Like Kassian's size but have been wondering since he's been on the Sabre's when he was going to turn it up.

I think he had more grit than skill set but didn't really see much of either when he played.

Tell me more about Hodgson !!!

Cause Hodgson is stuck behind Sedin and Kessler.


He was never going to get a fair shot at the top 6 there.

I give Darcy an A for the moves. They unloaded Gragnani for a bigger defensemen in Sulzer, got a possible future #2 center in Hodgson, and got a #1 pick for a guy who is going to be an UFA in a couple months.

They would have obviously talked to Hoff and maybe Hecht about this guy.

Hodgson impressed me in the one full Canucks game I watched this year (rematch with Bruins from month or two ago).

Agreed.

He smells better because he's younger.

Have to agree. And who knows, Goose may return on July 1.

Sulzer is actually smaller than Gags.

6'1 instead of grags 6'2

But Sulzer weights 3 lbs more.


Sulzer has been Van's scratch player just like Grags has been for us.
