It's not a trade otherwise we would have found out. Unless Miller changed his mind last night about waiving his clause

Pegula auctioning the team off to the highest bidder

I actually liked that line last night. Even Leino. He also busted his butt back a few times on the back check. Something that probably couldn't be seen on TV but he was hustling all game
- Stripes77

The problem is they are paying Leino, and Stafford, to put the puck in the back of the net. You can somebody to do the things you are describing $3M per or less.

Hustling is great, but scoring is more important from them, and they are simply not doing it.

And they arent hustling every game either. They are the most expensive 4th liners I have ever seen

He will be fine IMO. It's just frustrating to watch him (Foligno) The bad icings, trying to stickhandle all the time, not finishing checks. He is so inconcsistent
- sbroads24

I think what you are seeing with Foligno is a byproduct of what the team is asking him to do, by putting him into situations is not familiar with and really not prepared to handle properly.

Put him as a 3rd line winger with a good center and I suspect you would see the Foligno of 2 years ago back with a vengeance.

Darcy moving up?

It better not be that Koelmel (sp?) guy from that bank.

Actually, it woulmd be par for the course.

So, carry on, Terry.

Bingo. At best, it's 1 out of 2.

If they don't buyout Leino, I will be nearly shocked. He's producing at about the $1.5M per level, not triple that.

I don't think they will buyout or trade Stafford, and that they will hold on to him until he becomes a UFA after next season. They need to have some contracts that can at least get them to the cap floor after Miller is gone. I believe that is the same reason they will not trade Myers or Ehrhoff, unless they get at least dollar for dollar back, if not more.

Hopefully no one with Buffalo ties. I want someone who doesn't have losing embedded into them.

Better be bigger than that

I have to agree here, hopefully no one with Penguins ties either.

This is good news though.

Better be bigger than that

This could be, hopefully, the precursor to that something bigger, meaning a GM & coaching change after this season.

I bet one of them is gone by years end. I have a feeling you see another "hockey trade" made
