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

With so many young dmen in the system there won't be a need to bring back Regehr beyond this year.

His time in Buffalo is almost up.

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.

Dustin Brown is not a center.

Patrick Kane played center out of necessity, as there was an injury to Toews.

I guess if this were baseball, you'd be doing ok.

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.

Eric Staal, Evgeni Malkin, Tyler Seguin, Claude Giroux, Steven Stamkos played wing

You really have no clue what your talking about. Kane was drafted as a center. Moved to wing. Dustin Brown was a center. Moved to Wing. The point is they change positions alot when there young.

Sam Gagner centered Kane in juniors, but keep going with that idea.

Vanek needs to play with a Number 1 Center. I think he will score 40+ with Stazzy in the middle. I think it turns staz into a legit 80 point centerman too. The Sabes can give Foligno and Grigs for Staz. Would the Avs take it?

....don't know how to post videos but I just searched "Patrick Kane gets drafted" when he is drafted the screen pops up that clearly says Right Wing. Some peeps just don't get that they asked him to play center. Don't understand why we continue to have this Kane is a center convo.

He'll look great across from Parise with Koivu centering him! That is when he signs with the Wild after the 2013-14 season!

Why not? Foligno will never duplicate his late season production. He cant skate and his value is at all time high.
