I predict Statsny will surpass Vanek numbers if he stays with the Avs next season. I'm not kidding.

Profound.

There's no way Regehr is on this team beyond this season.

The Sabres should do themselves and Regehr a favor by trading him to a top cup contender at the deadline this season.

Another 1/2 season mentoring our young dmen and send him on his way. He could fetch a 1st rounder at the deadline and the Sabres should thank him for his service by giving him every opportunity to win the cup he badly craves with a true contender.
- Losman

depending on where we are in the standings and his interest (or lackthereof) in staying with the Sabres, then I agree

Stay at home experienced dmen can be hot commodities at the deadline, just like checking centers.

If Goose got us a first, so could Regehr.
- Losman

Exactly, how would we get a 1st round pick for him then?

good for him. Roch native and a big piece of their success last year

1) why are we messing with Grigorenko's head, by playing him on the wing "until he's ready for being a number 1 center"? That makes no sense whatsoever. Yikes. If we want Grigs to be a #1 center, then PLAY HIM AT CENTER!!!

2) Boedkker is a RW, not a center.

3) so, instead of having our highest paid player be a non factor during a run to the playoffs, you'd rather have a guy who is a non factor the whole year?

4) Is there a hidden camera somewhere, cuz I feel like the joke's on me.
- Powerslave

So did we mess with Tyler Ennis's head by playing him at center this year?? Or does it only work in some cases? Grigorenko will be a top 6 player by next year IMO. Center is a big responsibilty for young guys. Alot of centers play wing when there young. Alot of Rw's play LW and Vice versa.

I see what you did there!

Yea my bad stubbled across an old tweet....oops. Was kinda hoping they resigned him

Read earlier today, that it was a mutual parting of the ways.

Exactly, how would we get a 1st round pick for him then?
- sbroads24

If he's playing well and a team like Pitt has a need for what he brings, I could see it happening.

If I told you Goose would net a first rounder this time last year you likely would have been just as incredulous.

where are all our rumor guys today?

Most likely they are TEXTING SOURCES

You're missing my point. At no point in time did the Sabres go "hmmm, Ennis would make a good center, so we're going to play him at wing his first year and 1/2"

If they want Grigs to succeed at the CENTER ICE POSITION, then they should play him at CENTER ICE.

Name me "alot" of centers that have played wing when they were young.

One thing is clear, Buffalo is stocking up on "in between" players (those that could play some in Buffalo and some in Rochester - Porter, Mancari, Ellis), which could mean that players like Gerbe, Adam, Brennan could be going out in a package deal.

I don't think I can make it, EK hasn't updated the rumor chart and Garth hasn't posted a Kane blog.

Most likely they are TEXTING SOURCES
