I’m guessing they draft the Swede at 9, sign Olo and keep Dahlin happy. Decent success with the Swedes on our team

No need to post this part Homie.
Only bumholes would project what they think others believe without explicit, verified proof.

if I said what beady states I believe, it would be a 30 day ban on my end

6 years? 6 million? a 6th round pick? a 6 pack?
- Lunaion


I think all of the above apply.

6 years, isnt that what you considered "long term"

You think Tyler Brennan’s name might be on one of GMKA’s fifty index cards on his desk?

Agreed Tony

Just concerned about the stigma in the playoffs.

Soft swedes... excluding dahlin

If I consider 4-5 a middle ground between short and long term, does that really bother you?

That's confusing..... and yes it bothers me tremendously 😐

Short term 1-3 years
Middle term 4-5
Long term 6-8

That's pretty universal, maybe different in the analytics cave?

He’d be fun to watch, but does this team have a spot for him? Wouldn’t he block a younger player? And above all, would he be proud to put the sweater on?
- PrinceChill



Lived here until he was 3
Not sure how much love he has for buffalo
1 year deal to see if his body can hold up as holding up a youngster best player plays

what about future considerations... i think we need to cash in on some of those and move up in the draft.

Buffalo 9th overall + 3rd round pick and "will butcher future considerations cash in" to NJD for 2nd overall.

come on darcy make it happen

Totally agree!

Digging in and repeating yourself doesn’t make u correct, just ignorant

I asked for examples, plural
U said i asked for an example, singular

You were wrong, your “L” there…. Again

What mogilny did was brave, detective russia

I'm not sure if that has any importance on being a hall of Famer?


He wasnt the 1st russian player correct? just the 1st to skip out on his country to play in north America

I thought many players headed over soon after.
Mogilny didnt pave the way if I remember correctly, he just left without waiting for a russian agreement and blessing.

I see a pretty solid middle six winger. I'm fine with it.
- Sir Tindoom


If we’re drafting a middle six winger with a top 10 pick we should smack ourselves.

Mogilny should be in for his stats alone, not to mention being a building block for ALL Russian players, dude is literally the Russian OG of NHL hockey and gets shat on every year. Total BS.

Alfie gets in before Mogilny is a JOKE

- hehateme
I forgot what former NHLer told a story of Mogilny in Vancouver.

During an intermission, a coach was laying into the entire team, than mogilny specifically. Mogilny reached for his cig, took a puff, and said "do you really thing I am scared of you?"

Dude could have played in 100 games, never scored a goal, and should have be in the HOCKEY Hall of Fame due to him being the first defector. His stats are icing on the cake. I don't get how he is not in.

For the record, not directed towards you, but only 11 and 39 should be retired. A mediocre franchise that has never won anything, has waaaaay too many numbers up there. However 89 would be 3rd on my list.

What the honest hell happened here? She touch some Fentanyl? Not even joking, what was this just a few days ago or less than a week that she was admitted to the hospital?

Life comes at you quick Beady.

I know 3 people who were pretty healthy people. Get sick. Think its just a cold or mono. End up not getting better. Get blood work. Cancer. 1 or 2 weeks later they're gone.

- homiedclown

I’m very aware of the need for pipeline restocking between the pipes. And getting to take the first G off the board is nice. But I’d like to see who’s still on the board at 41 first.

no doubt

if they have a first round grade on a forward or d man, I would grab that person at 41 over a goalie

Where are you getting $7M per for 7 seasons from?

You think it would take that much per on a 7 year deal?
