Maybe the Rangers realized they weren't going to land Nash and offered Doan?

Maybe the Sabres realized that they weren't going to land Staal, Ryan, Nash or Getzlaf and offered Doan that kind of money?

True, my thoughts were the guy might not even play all 4 years. However, you have to go to Cap Geek and look at the better teams and players. Detroit, Pitt, St. Louis, Vancouver. Look at what thier stars make, what the results have been and how under control thier cap situation is. And then think about 37 year old Doan. Would this be just another spend money for the Sake of spending it? I know Terry is filthy rich but there has to be a line drawn somewhere right?

No this would be part of the "3 year plan to get the cup". Win a cup in the next 2 years then trade Doan to another team who needs to get to the cap floor.

In theory

From the sounds of what everyone was saying...
Girgensons seems more likely to make the team than Grigorenko this year

If that's the case,
I might prefer Girgensons at least starts in Rochester
Grigorenko goes back to juniors
(no one is gonna like this next part)
Porter centers our 3rd line

We are in a tough spot,
IMO, Darcy has built a really strong future for this team
(which is why u aren't seeing McNabb, Pysyk, Armia, etc traded)...
But we are also in "win now" mode

Kinda puts us in "no mans land" as far as the direction of the franchise for the next 2 years

Three options IMO....
1) hope the kids grow up fast & can take on big roles
2) trade a bunch of the stockpiled talent for a couple (3, maybe) pieces to give us a shot to contend right away
3) trade vanek, pominville & miller... Get some stud prospects & high picks... Total rebuild ala NYI, EDM, PIT, etc

Eklund says that Philly is not the Eastern team that offered Doan $30 million.
- Jacob582


Must have been Philly then, cause the Flyers were having trade talks with the Leafs, but it was NOT Schenn for JVR

My guess is the Rags, Sabres, Pens or Caps.

Even if the Sabres did offer that I don't think that it will make much of a difference.

He is hell bent on saying in PHX......or at the VERY least out west

I guess
But if Darcy goes to Pegula and says,
"these trade offers are just stupid, etc...
I'm not going to make a bad trade just for the sake of making a trade...
our best option is to go hard after the perfect guy to lead our team"

What would you say as owner?
