So trading 1 first round pick is trading the farm now? Got it....
- HonkFortheGoose


That pick we traded wasn't worth all that either. I'm ok with us losing it. Sux that he was injured first freaking game in. No body expects that to happen.

Oh. Well. Yeah. If he could play like Price, we'd be pretty good lol
- TheSabresTaco


I don't even need him to be like that. I'd take half of an improvement over how he's been on rebounds and be happy.

Lovejoy's goal was definitely on Eichel last night, but it would have been nice to have the goalie make the initial save and then not give up a rebound for the guy to bang home.

When do the naming rights run out? They really need to find someone else...and put M&T Bank ATM's in there, so that I don't have to pay a surcharge for withdrawing money.

I bet that pick would have been a great piece to add a quality d man or a rw sniper

I honesty think neither Neuvirth nor Lindback wanted to resign here because of our tanking tactics
- MattFreaknEllis

perhaps


there was other options though then chad johnson for an emergency starter

I would at least have brought in Emery the day after bubble boy went down

I was actually wondering if M&T would make an offer on the naming rights.

Lehner doesn't have this crazy injury history that you're making it out to be. He had 1 concussion last year. That's it. The over-exaggeration of things around here at times is laughable.

You seem to forget that guys have to be willing to sign here. Who says Emery would have even been interested? You're not in the office with Murray seeing what he is/isn't doing. All you're doing is speculating and you could be completely off base.

We brought that up the other day here. Your right. I thought he had way more injuries the way everyone tagged him.

He's doing them a lot of good on their injured list.

He also got injured because he wasn't able to be in full shape BECAUSE of that concussion which did not allow him to train as he normally would have.

I have a hard time faulting Murray for getting good players that "get injured", since I see injuries as fairly flukey events

They are and they aren't. Look at Jaromir Jagr, who doesn't have much of an injury history. It's also well documented that he takes very good care of himself.

That's not a negative thought, it's the truth. He's currently injured. It's fact, not opinion.

I don't think he's a PPG player, but 65 points is looking more realistic than 45 (which I thought he'd be)
- sbroads24


I was thinking about that for this year (40-50 on a team struggling to learn together), but now it's looking much better.
