And what hockey do you watch? Vanek is worth every bit of Getzlaf. Cripes, he scored 11 goals and looked lethargic last season. As of right now I wouldn't trade Vanek for Getz in no way shape or form.

HAHAHA!

Tell you what...Have GARTH do a blog about it and put it to a vote. Gauranteed 75% plus vote that Getzlaf is worth more than just Vanek.

so it seems like we all have these crazy trade ideas, so I figured I would toss in two more! lol We are all pretty sure Myers and RNH are not going to get traded, so whose left?

When I first read this post I though immediately about Leopold and Sekera for Buffalo and Gagner for Edmonton.

Buffalo GETS:
C - Sam Gagner
LW - Magnus Paajarvi

Edmonton GETS:
D - Andrej Sekera
D - TJ Brennan
C - Luke Adam

----------------------------------------------------------
And here is a trade that is a lot of wishful thinking!

Buffalo GETS:
C - Sam Gagner
C - Shawn Horcoff
LW - Magnus Paajarvi
2013 2nd RD Pick

Edmonton GETS:
D - Andrej Sekera
D - TJ Brennan
C - Luke Adam
LW - Ville Leino
C - Tyler Ennis

---------------------------------------------------

Vanek - Hodgson - Pominville
Paajarvi - Gagner - Stafford
Gerbe - Horcoff - Ott
McCormick - Ellis - Kaleta
Foligno - - Tropp
Scott - - Porter

Myers - Ehrhoff
Leopold - Regehr
Sulzer - Weber
Pardy - McNabb

Hahaha, just because Toronto is large don't mean it's pretty. Trash, homeless, sewer stink, & window washing squeegee freaks with B-O come to mind and it's been a while since I was there so I'm sure I'm missing some other highlights.

I'll stick up for vanek...my math may be off but he has averaged 34 goals a season (post drury/briere)with no help up the middle....pretty good if you ask me. most of the goals he was probably taking a beating in front of the net....now he might have some talent to set him up(grigorenko)...not to mention he has a crazy good shot that he rarely get a chance to use

After last season? Deal. Cripes Gaustad looked better then Getzlaf last season. I'd have to see Getz bounce back before I trade Vanek for him.

If youre gonna make fun of Buffalo at least do it right.

Watch him play for a minute or two and get back to us.
- robin_steele264


Again, I think he's a good player, but he's played one season Which he got injured in
And he will have the est line mates in the league, do its not like JT or crosby who make their line mates

I've driven around Buffalo...it's actually the worst North American city I've been in. The Main strip makes me sad.

the d they are talking about is 95% not myers. so drop it. it is also 90% not ehrhoff. so that leaves mcnabb or leo or sekera or regehr.
- LizzyJo



But only 85%. Which would be about 21.25% each for mcnabb, Leo, Sekera, or regehr.

That's a little crazy
As much as I love JT I may trade him for Crosby or Malkin but bearing injuries. But deff stamkos, stamkos is going to be the greatest goal scorer of all time

OK this is for all the Buffalo fans. The fact is Eklund says there is a young top 6 Center. On the Edm roster, that gives you Hopkins and Gagner. Hopkins is not going anywhere, so that leaves Gagner. If he's moved, there will be another Center coming back, as there's nobody in the Oilers system that can step in there anytime soon, if ever. If they're looking at moving him, it'll be for a bigger Center, likely in a package deal.

Consider this Sabres fans: maybe a deal like this goes through, with one of Grigorenko or Girgensons going back to Edm. Obviously there's more pieces, likely a Dman to Edm and a winger to Buffalo. At the same time, Buffalo works a deal for Bobby Ryan, sending CoHo the other way; or maybe does something nuts and brings Patty Kane home. Then you've suddenly got a use for Gagner don't ya?

And no, Stamkos will not be the greatest goal scorer of all time.

yeah the majority of the people who are buffalonians live in the suburbs surrounding it. our city is really sad. poor city planing and corruption plus we are part of NY which kills us because of NYC. the good things is its cheap to live here, its easy to get around and you can take a 15 min drive from the city to the country.

Agreed but I think it would be Gagner going. I can't see Buffalo going back to two small centers on the first two lines.

Unlike many cities Main street isnt our "main" street. Theyre actually doing construction now to make Main accessible by road again instead of just by subway. That has already begun to pump some life into Main. That combined with UBs new medical campus coming downtown Main street will be good to go, it will probably take 5-8 years but it will be fine. Delaware and Elmwood are the "main" streets in Buffalo.

Honestly I would rather have Girgensons/Grigerenko than Gagner. Wouldnt give up either for him at the moment. Hodgson and Ennis have as much talent as him IMO, so why send a package the other way for somethign we already have?

There would be no point for the Oilers to trade Gagner for a prospect like Grigs either.
