Rumor: Detroit - Buffalo?

[Petes2424]

There’s scouts in Detroit every night, as it’s one of the natural hubs for scouts and independent evaluators who live up and down the 401. It’s much easier driving from London to Detroit than dealing with Toronto traffic, etc.

There’s lots of scouts who live in Detroit, Windsor, London, etc.

Old school scouts, watching players live like that. Bobby Luongo doing it the modern way....

Seems like one of those scouts was Karmanos the Sabres assistant GM though …that’s the part the is peaking interest in this being more than run of the mill. Assistant gms aren’t just randomly scouting other teams games for the future the week before Xmas

Moreover, Sabres next games with Detroit or Flyers are only in March.

Also happens a lot in Buffalo too but doesn't get a lot of play, perhaps because some of the local beat guys don't recognize scouts or because some national guys do and know that it's just where regional pro scouts can catch games.

What’s the conditions on the sandwhich?

Detroit’s choice of cheese (unconditional), plus one additional condiment for every 10 points Larkin scores this season. (Don’t low ball me, I know what I got.)

I heard this rumor today on "the fan Hockey show" (Fan590). Friedman said he's heard it's Buf-Det........for what that's worth

Do not see it.

The only things I could see is Kasper for a Sabres prospect or a crazy trade that would crash thus bbn oats such as s frame work of

Larkin, Seider, +
For
Thompson, byram/ Power, +

..

I think local press dont see the value in reporting it or they arent in the speculation game

Giving them too much credit for even knowing who the scouts are.

Since apparently we’re just shitlosting now, how about Larkin and Edvinsson for Samuelsson and a ham sandwich?

Well now that you mention it, P. Kane did play for HoneyBaked back in the day.

But I still like the Dahlin proposal provided of course that Cozens is added to sweeten the pot.

 

[Snuggs]

Yzerman gets involved to create a three banger and pulls off an Elias Pettersson move.

 

[Schemp]

Supposedly Buffalo had scouts at last night's Red Wings - Flyers game. Both of these teams need a change. Is there a deal that would make sense to be made here?

Boy Scouts or Eagle Scouts?

 

[Iwishihadaspacebar]

Buffalo / Detroit would be a weird trade partnership unless it is a small trade that doesn't do much like Jokiharhu for Holl or something.

Seider for Power would be an interesting one but that's not happening.

 

[SEALBound]

To Van: Cozen+Byram
To Det: Pettersson
To Buff: Larkin

I value Larkin over Pettersson

 

[Mike Jones]

Maybe there is something here, but this thread was created with no rumour in place other than scouts were at a game, which literally happens every game.

All you have to do is look at the schedule and if there isn't a game between the two teams in the near future...

 

[JPT]

There's a rumour that there's a rumour

I have concepts of a rumor

He’s from Detroit. We see a ton of this around the holidays. Calgary is another one, who gets a a lot of NHL scouts/execs attending games in December, as many travel home for Xmas.

Im not saying he wasn’t there to scout for current trade purposes. Just saying it is rather normal. It’s like going on a working vacation, and we see it every season.

Parmesan reggiano.

Cranberry honey mustard.

Before any trade can go down, we would need confirmation on bread.

We talking an artisanal sourdough or a some quality boule?
