No, but I think Vanek is the most overhyped player in the league. Sorry. Just an opinion. He is making a boat load of money and his production has decreased. Again, just my opinion.
- Oneonta Penguin

Overhyped? I'll agree that he makes more than he deserves but I dunno if he's overhyped.

Vanek is a stud .. i wouldn't give him up (unless the Sabres landed Ryan too)

sigh.

Seems like the Sens are trying for Ryan ,per Yost. Darcy will won't budge.

Uh yeah...no thanks.

Ryan and Stastny have similar stats, however Ryan scores more goals, and has a lower cap hit plus bigger size which makes his value greater than Stastny's, so this trade couldn't be for one on one! however, it is a good basis for a fade as Anaheim desperately wants a 2C and Stastny could be just that, but colorado would need to add something else to this

Not saying that id do the trade. But the Ducks needing a C makes w/e C they pursue that much for valuable in a trade. Just saying.

Make Semin an offer and be done with it already.

He is making 7.5 million and has only eclipsed 70 points twice in his career. He, right now is more like a 30-goal, 35 assist guy. That isn't a good value at all. Sorry

I get the money but it was a result of an offer sheet. But to call him the most overhyped player in the league is a huge stretch

HockeyyInsiderr saying Statsny++ for Vanek being discussed.

nope, and nope to stasny

- Oneonta Penguin

Overpaid is the correct word, not overhyped. his cap hit is 7.1 mil his actual dollars are 6.4 mil. And given how he has had little to work with Im happy with his production. And how can he, in your mind, be more overpaid than Scott Gomez?

nope, and nope to stasny
- PearlStreet

Why

He is making 7.5 million and has only eclipsed 70 points twice in his career. He, right now is more like a 30-goal, 35 assist guy. That isn't a good value at all. Sorry
- Oneonta Penguin

True, because he has played with some really good Centers lately.

He is making 7.5 million and has only eclipsed 70 points twice in his career. He, right now is more like a 30-goal, 35 assist guy. That isn't a good value at all. Sorry
- Oneonta Penguin

Then you'll love 6.6mm for 20 goals and 53 points.

Or say 6mm 10-years for 25 goals and 50 points.

Before you call Vanek overpaid you better look at overpaid and overhyped Stastny.

Should do a 3 team trade.

Vanek to COL
Stastny to ANA
Ryan to BUF

Since I'd rather have Ryan over Vanek anyways

If u make a non-sense offer to a player that makes no sense to the team then what's the point? Lenio was a non-sense move in my mind and what happened?? Not saying its a total bust but why just throw money and players around to make a splash? Everyone else around u is wet and pissed off. No move is better than a no sense move IMHO

Semin has more talent then Leino, no question. Leino is a bum and always has been and always will be.

You honestly believe Semin, on a team with little character/leadership + Lindy Ruff will work

- theblueandgold

The Sens or Flyers will jump in and grab Ryan.

I wouldn't trade Stastny for Vanek.

And, I wouldn't trade Vanek for Stastny.

- sabresfan365

What's your point, Lindy ruins every player so it makes no differance does it.
