#Sabres have a TON of defensemen. Something has to break.

so he shouldn't have to worry about waivers till he hit 20 some games played.
I guess depends on his age .. 23 now

It's been 3 years since he signed his first contract. He must clear waivers.

3 years or 160 games, whichever comes first. So even though he's only played 11 games, he lost his waiver exemption July 1st.

again stats dont mean everything. stafford pretty much scores a hattrick or doesnt exist. doan is a steady contributer and also actually hits and plays defense when he isnt scoring.

What is the ceiling for this kid?.. what a 4 or 5 d-man?

He is somewhat undersized for the NHL game.. he has decent offensive stats.. isn't a big physical d-man.

I, personally, like big physical d-men for the most part...

I think Brennan or Pysyk will be traded for Ryan or Stasnty IMO.

Tarnasky earned 173 PIMs in the KHL last season.

He's the perfect guy to call-up and battle Lucic and the Bruins


Good call Garth....

I thought Doan was a better PKer?? he only averaged 52 seconds a game and had 69 total minutes last year... He did average 3:11 per game on the PP though.

Waiver rules are pretty interesting, I just assumed a 1-way contract locked a player into waivers. Did a little research and found the NHL waiver rules chart, and yep, he needs to pass through waivers like you said since he signed his entry level at 20 y/o.

Again, pretty crowded blue line and we just added another to it.....

Tarnasky got the last shot in. That's as good as a win, right?


He does get some credit for walking directly into a buzzsaw. He's brave. Or stupid. Or some combo of both.

A one way deal may prevent him from getting picked up on waivers though. A team may be less likely to take a chance on him if their owner can't afford to bury the contract in the minors. Not all of them will.

that is the truth... we always seem to have a top 7 or top 5 PK unit... but out PP always seems to be between 17-25.

remember all that talk about teams wanted to move Doan to Center?

I would kill Lindy with a paper cup.
