Its a war of attrition my friend. I don't think these guys can win. Although that 3 point gap between us and Edm is frightening.


edit: Just realized Grigorenko was recalled

I hope we lose every single game we have left.

Just got back home from hanging with my buddy. He said he had heard we did inquire about O'Reilly during the deadline and a deal involving Grigorenko and one of our 2nds was tabled but Murray didn't want to bring him here during this season. He thinks the deal did involve something else from both sides but didn't know what exactly those were. In his opinion he thinks the deal was preset for around the draft and will be finalized around then. I asked him what his best guess would be as to what the other pieces were and he said he knows from the past that Colorado is high on Ennis and wouldn't be surprised if the whole trade was something like:

To Buffalo
Ryan O'Reilly
Nick Holden
2015/2016 1st (only one of them not both)

To Colorado
Mikhail Grigorenko
Tyler Ennis
2015 2nd

Keep in mind that over the years I have known him he is very hit or miss. The only things I can absolutely say 100% he got right was Ehrhoff being bought out and Bogosian being in the Kane deal. He has gotten trades to certain teams right a lot but not always the correct players and picks, but he seemed very confident about this which is not normally how he is when we discuss his limited "insider" info. He told me as well, that what we are hearing about Brendan Lemieux is correct. He was not going to sign here and was apparently planning on re-entering the draft. He also said Murray is absolutely LIVID with Nolan regarding player choices. He was very vocal about Neuvirth not being ridden after Enroth was traded and Nolan did it anyway. Said that Murray was really wanting to keep Neuvirth around and try and resign him but by Nolan continually playing him and endangering the coming draft he had no choice but to trade him away for "Peanuts compared to what he felt he was worth."
Again grain of salt please, I am not saying he is a perfect "source" but its nice to have at least a little something.

what a horse poop deal all that for a guy that could walk in 1 year i'm going to be pissed if we trade ennis +++

while there should be concern with the yotes "catching" the sabres, reality is


the sabres goalies stole them at least 24 points this year and those toys are gone


if the yotes get 6 points and also split the 2 games with us, it's a wrap

why, so Nolan can keep him in the presser

Keep it up with the bad attitude and i'll make a call to Navin.

that rumor Orphen22 posted look up

The Chicago Tribune reports the Bears are looking to trade Brandon Marshall.

Ideally, the Bears would work out a deal before free agency begins on Tuesday. Marshall was a shell of himself in 2014, reaching 100 yards twice en route to his lowest receiving total since his rookie season. Injuries played a role in that, but it's become increasingly clear Alshon Jeffery is Jay Cutler's go-to receiver. One source said it would only take a mid-round pick to pry Marshall away from the Windy City.



Has everyone gone nuts in the NFL ?

Keep it up with the bad attitude and i'll make a call to Navin.
