How so? He's signed the contracts. They have always tried to spend money on talent ala Jay Bo, Tanguay, Wideman, Hudler etc

Yeah, they spend like sh*t, draft like sh*t, trade like sh*t.

Edit: Their all red jerseys are pretty sweet though.

I wouldn't hate it if they did it. I just don't know that it would have the impact everyone thinks.

It won't in Buffalo, but it will for somebody.

You ever known Darcy to panic? no way he is right now. He would never make a deal just to make a deal.

I know but in a shortened season he has to realize this team needs more.

The team needs more, but it's not a high profile rental away from making a run. All moves have to have the long term in mind.

Gotta give to get and he won't give, Gerbe is a complete waste and is taking up a roster spot.

See, that's just it. Why overpay for a guy that's not going to make that big of an impact? Yes, he may help some, but in the end, it's not worth it.

My guess would be Calgary would want McNabb, Pysyk or someone along that line. I'm not giving that up for a guy that's in the last few years of his career. I would think they also would want one of our current roster players and to me in general it's too much to give up. Especially when there's no guarantee he stays after his current deal is up.

I said nothing about a rental?? None of the trade targets I want would be rentals. I want Bobby Ryan and he wouldn't be a rental.

That's the problem Darcy won't give to get, you deal from a position of strength and our strength is D.

I agree. I'm just saying I wouldn't want him to do that for a rental.

I can't stand watching guys like Stafford, Gerbe, Ellis and Sekera on this team anymore.

Myers for Kassian
- sbroads24


Kassian is benefiting from playing with the Sedins right now. As soon as he loses any type of consistency, he'll be back on the 4th line there. He's also a total head case. I like the trade. I'm happy with Cody.

If I'm moving Myers, it's not to get a guy back that I wasn't overly impressed with in the first place.
