moulson is already 3rd in points for the Ontario Reign

Of course their offer will start low
Not like they’re gonna tell LeBrun the most they’re willing to give up
What team doesn’t say they don’t wanna trade 1st round picks?
Yet it happens all the time anyways

think about what "low" means here and what you and botts are thinking the return for kane should be.

who do you think is going to cave first in this? Im not saying they won't meet in the middle and give up a first but it pretty much sinks the ship on "let's bring back a first, A prospect and roster player because kane's the best available".

Jbotts put the big ask out there. I like it. Keeps the tire beaters away and only serious offers will come in for him to focus on.

there may be a much bigger trade out there than what we are thinking


skunk and kane to the devils for santini, plus and plus

santini has been trash for the devils, yet another d-man who can't play defence

It doesn't though. They are all going to start low, its how this works. you don't start with your best offer, ever.

If I am getting +++ I am thinking Calgary

Pick Up Adam Fox, Oliver Kylington.

Bogosian was terrible from day 1, sorry not sorry. He wasn't the edge we needed, nobody needs bogosian on their team, not when he gives you 35 games and an awful cap hit.

Johnson is probably just as bad defensively, why on earth would we pursue these guys? Let's start looking for high iq puck movers and defensively competent players.

I pointed this out a while back when he was 3rd in points with only 9 games played.

That goes without saying. This should keep the KAne for a second offers away is what i'm saying. Of course no one is going to come in with full ask

go bite a tide pod

Posted this in the last thread as it died:

Shouldn't the Sabres get aggressive with clearing out problems? I wonder if they can talk to Moulson and say, "listen, you're not gonna make the team next year, and you're not going to play and live in California. You have two options: retire, or play for the Americans, where you will be expected to show up on time, or we will be voiding your contract like Steve Moses. If you retire, there's a good chance we'll be able to find you a position within the organization"

Ship Bogo somewhere for a pick or Bailey or something.

I get that Moulson is respected and yada yada yada, but why the Sabres doing him favors and letting him play somewhere else on their dime? It's ridiculous.

could bite 8 and still find a better d-man than santini


The only d-man at 500 mins or more with possession numbers below 40%...on a playoff bound team no less
