That would certainly be nice... good luck


Also, let me know when the yahoo stuff will be starting up again... I expect to have that beautiful trophy on my mantle for a year

Will do. Gotta see what tools they add this year. Want to make it an easier/funner league. Maybe add some more teams.

For sure. I'm sure that we could drag up some of the degenerates from this board to come on in and join us. The fact that there's a buy-in and bad-ass prizes should hopefully keep people interested.

Am I correct in saying that Buffalo can only negotiate and no team can sign him prior to Aug 15th?

I argued with someone who says "If Buffalo was going to sign him it would be done already".

Please tell me I'm right because this guy is a turd.

So if I'm a Vessey, I'd sign with the best chance to win a cup. Why wouldn't he?

He's going to make the same $ no matter where he goes.

guy has never even played an NHL game and he's not even guaranteed to be on an NHL roster in October. doubt Cup contention is on his mind. he's likely looking for the best opportunity for him to play and produce and earn a second contract.

I remember the Liriano to the Jays rumours from the winter. Guess there was some validity.

Nope, Buffalo can sign him now as they own his rights. No other team can talk to him until Aug 15th.

No one can talk to him but Buffalo until the 15th. They could sign him anytime, but He said he wants to wait till the15th and assess all proposals.


Was it Garth?

Nah wasn't Garth. Well then that does hold some merit I think. If he was gonna sign with Buffalo he may have already done so.

Not necessarily... he may just want to meet with other teams first. He's had a chance to build a relationship with Buff and that may not be a bad thing (see posts above from Victoro that mentions this)

He wants to see all the options, which won't happen till the 15th.

It makes sense that if he wanted to sign with Buffalo he would have by now. They've made a couple pitches already.

But we've seen that movie before "if he hadn't yet, he won't" with stamkos.

Great point. Not sure how I feel about Vesey either. Seems like our forward crop is getting pretty crowded.

No, they're not.

I'm just glad this blog was based on info from 2 of the worst in the business in Haggerty and Dater.
- Feds91Stammer

If they're the worst, then who the hell do you think are the best? Eklund? Garf?

No, they're not.
- TheRollingPuck

Yes they are.... Only one team can currently talk to the, but we know that a team that can't speak to him yet is in the lead.

Thats now what Buffalo and Nashville have publicly said

Hopefully not

Ah yes, the trusted website of Bleacher Report...

The Vesey situation will not be any clearer between now and August 15th because other teams can't, you know, talk to him...

Still think he goes to Buffalo or Boston.

Don't say that in the Nucks' thread. Carol Is a God

If it means the Sabres don't land him, and Garf writing a whiny blog about it, I hope the Leafs sign Vesey.

No, they're not.

You've ruined our dreams about a bloke we know (frank) all about.
