You guys should sign and trade for everybody just like Cloutier and the Oilers

this was a pointless article.
- BarUpHockey19


This.

But not quite...... New article means more hits, means $$.
Pretty much everything Garth writes is a cheerleading rah-rah hype and rarely contains anything of "inside" or "alternative" viewpoints.

Tomorrow's headlines may include:
- Goose flying back North again?
- Are the Flames going to trade Iggy? (I'm guessing he'll suggest trading Roy and Reggie)
- ZOMG! Ray Whitney - Our missing cup piece.
- Prodical Son returns? Lee Stempniak to return home and lead us to glory.

I've actually watched a lot of Phoenix games. There's no need to say nobody watches them. Maybe you're too lazy to do so, but there are plenty of other people that do.

If I never watched the Coyotes play, why would I be saying Doan was dirty? I would just go along with everybody else and say he's perfect. What I'm trying to say is that I have watched the Coyotes a lot and have noticed that Doan can cross the line quite a bit. Nobody else seems to notice this though, which bugs me.

"Don't let his age fool you. He's 35 right now, and is showing one iota of slowing down.

Think you meant to say 'is not' showing one iota of slowing down.

Either that, or this article is really confusing.

Garf hasn't quite figured the whole edit and 2nd read through thing. Apparently noone running this place cares either, it's pretty bush league to have a FOX backed site and have this crap continue daily. It's a fight a few of us have been waging fruitlessly for years.

Looking at the opportunity cost:

A Salary for Doan

Or

Salary for Ryan+Trading assets (TEnnis/Hogsdon/McNabb like assets - not all 3..)

Which would you rather have?

The premise of the article, though, is that Buffalo would trade for his negotiating rights. The Sabres have yet to win a full free agent "bidding war" on a top tier free agent under Pegula so far. And no, Ville Leino doesn't count.

I'm far more concerned about being hunted down by a roving pack of nerds, geeks and eggheads and beaten to a pulp with flugelhorn, bassoon and telescope cases.

This is exactly the type of guy the Sabres need though. That's why everyone around here likes him.

Call it a handshake deal that they won't sign Zach Parise and we have ourselves a trade.

If it were me getting those jerseys, thats the order I'd get them in.

Sabres players followed by the legit NHL talent followed by the favorites.

Don't know exactly what game Doan was watching in that first video...but that aside, he is one of the dirtier players in the league. All through Phoenix's run, whenever he got frustrated, you could see he would start head-hunting people. Him not getting called out for it is probably a combination of the small market theory and him being a captain and star player. They generally get penalties called on them less frequently, so they also don't receive as much negative attention as they should when they cross the line.

What about Roy, Mcnabb, Brennan, and a first? That's fair.

Overpayment with the plus. Seriously.

Swap grigs with Mcnabb and you have a deal

If you're lazy, and you don't want to be lazy anymore, you watch more TV. Got it.

They want McNabb in the top 6 this year. They aren't going to be trading him, nor should they.
