Yes, but times have changed since Pegula has arrived...and yes he has made soem good deals, but none pop to mind that have been recent.

Id put the Hodgson trade into the good trade category, especially since Vancouver let Grags walk and supposedly made Kassian available at the draft

There are still a ton of names in play though, I'm not too worried. I think something is coming shortly in these next few days.

Mcginn's stats on Col: 17 games, 8G 5A 13P. Not to bad huh?
- scott123456

A lot of players play great like that when they get traded. Mcginn is much better suited for the 3rd line.

Yea no sh!t......if you actually looked at last page you'd see that I posted them and defended McGinn being in the top 6. But hey none of us know anything about the avalanche because were Sabres fans.

Edit....I just realized you mayve not been being an arse......anyways yea he played well, think he just needed to see some top 6 minutes because if I recall he was quite good in junior.

That's not reassuring at all and you're typically on top of things, so I now have a bad feeling that nothing is going to happen.

Caps traded for ribeiro.. calgary got widemen from caps so they got a pico there... Nj resigned about all of their bottom 6..

So nope... Just us sitting on our hands in the last 2 months unless u want to count trading with calgary at the draft to get girgensons.

Maybe way to early to tell. My question why do we think Darcy is going to be active in the trade market. He has really never pulled a monster deal in buffalo.

were all getting pissed that we havent done anything ...

i feel like if we havent done anything yet then i guess darcy is just happy with the roster as is


no complaints out of me...going into last season we ALL thought we would go very deep into the playoffs...they just underachieved thats it. same team nothing else were gonna be fine



sure they might be targeting doan or someone else but if they didnt make a strong push elsewhere then im confident in darcys motives

Hate, Hate, HATE to bring it up, but Briere and Drury were pretty good.

The Drury trade was a big deal

but hes also never had an owner like Pegula that gives him the type of freedom.

Fuel that with the fact that he likely is feeling some heat to win next year, and his own admissions on the roster, yes i think hes active in the trade market

Its July1.

Im nowhere near mad. Just because he doesnt sign or trade anyone today doesnt mean he wont before camp. people overreact way too much on this day

I'm not mad at the fact he hasn't done anything today. People definitely overreact on July 1st. However, if he's happy with the roster as is, then he's (frank)ing high

Good points Jvince11....guess I trying to read into something after Homer mentioned we are 1 of 4 teams that haven't done squat. Looking at Capgeek...NJ they really have nobody under long term outside of Volchenkov and of course

I find this kinda disturbing
