What's with the knock on Sabres fans....I highly doubt we hold a monopoly on making idiotic comments.

Look at the Miller trade....EVERYONE thought Buffalo fans were asking way too high a price for him....and while you guys were all laughing we landed Stewart, Halak, and a (likely)1st for him. If you look at how depressed the trade market was for big ticket players(see Vanek trade) that is a pretty big return.

god no
but just funny a sabres fan ripping on another teams talent

Than what's the point? Swapping first liner for first liner?
- Dedshark

Exactly it would be pointless wich is why I don't believe this rumor for a second.

I had a dream that someone told me the Blues are interested in Stamkos. I don't remember who my source was, but I'll go back to sleep and dream some more and see if I can figure it out. More to come!

Columbus for example.
Klesla 4th overall
Leclaire 8th overall
Nash 1st overall
Zherdev 4th overall
Picard 8th overall
Brule 6th overall
Brassard 6th overall
Voracek 7th overall
Filatov 6th overall

9 top 10 picks in a row and None remain with the team or are a credit to the teams current sucess. Busts or traded away. High picks can only take a team so far, drafting and asset management

Sure, it's pretty easy to find examples of where it didn't work but it's just as easy to find where it did. Look no further than your Avs.

Duchene- 3rd overall
Landeskog-2nd overall
MacKinnon-1st overall

You're pretty well set with this as a core

The islanders aren't very good
- Flyfreaky

Maybe they could work out a swap for vanek! oh, wait...

Who would they send back to the jets? They have hardly any talent.
- jaumiller

Don't be such a dumas. They have plenty of talented prospects... just no talent behind the bench, in the FO, or owner's suite

Maybe they could work out a swap for vanek! oh, wait...

You should trade Kovie before he bolts to the Motherland

Oh I know, it can be a crap shoot, some years are stronger than others, but its crazy that after that many top 10 picks there wasnt a life time Jacket with the only reasonable being Nash.

I was thinking the devils should trade Parise and Kovalchuck for those two plus.

Hi Islanders Fans,

My name is Beezer and im going to be filling in for Garth Snow today.

Most likely you will get a top 5 pick this year so youll hold onto that and hope to be much better in 2015, which u defer the pick to my favorite team the Buffalo sabres

End up drafting Del Colle prolly? Who knows but whoever it is they wont be on the team next year.

Trade a 4th (2014) and 6th (2015) for James Reimer

FA Targets: Brian Elliot, Matt Niskanen, Dustin Penner, Tom Gilbert, Brian Gionta, Malhotra

Potential 2014 Lineup:

Penner-Tavares-Okposo
Lee-Nielsen-Grabner
Bailey-Strome-Clutterbuck
Martin-Malhotra-MacDonald
Boulton

Visnovsky-Hamonic
DeHaan-Niskanen
Hickey-Carkner
Strait

Reimer
Elliott


At least that looks a little better right?

More importantly we need a coach.

Eklund: Source: Islanders and Jets could work major draft day deal.
