Miscellaneous NHL Discussion: "The March is On" edition

adding another C?

Seems like step 1 to another deal.

Habs were rumored to be looking to improve the blueline. But if they get Staal, they'd have to move money out for another trade.

As for the sabres...

I'd bet it's Hall to the Islanders.

 

[FLYguy3911]

Flyers have the right idea. Don’t play any close games so you don’t get screwed by make-up calls in the end.

If Buffalo had competent management, it's not a bad year to load up on volume of picks to grab a mid round gem.

If Buffalo had competent management, it's not a bad year to load up on volume of picks to grab a mod round gem.

Full of ourselves, aren’t we?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Staal probably could not get out of that room fast enough.

 

[kudymen]

"Buffalo locker room is toxic.. our core is weak and toxic.. trade them for Eichel and Hall!!"

 

[pit]

If Buffalo had scouts, it's not a bad year to load up on volume of picks to grab a mid round gem.

FTFY.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

FTFY.

If they had good management, they would also have good scouting.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

I know, glass houses and such. But sometimes it feels like Buffalo will legitimately never be mediocre again, let alone good.

You can have bad management and good scouting. Case in point...

Unfortunately for them it seems like they don't have any scouts, right? Aren't they ignoring Western Canada and half of Europe?

They are a tire fire at every level, yes.

I missed the big news yesterday in Vancouver sports media...

A number of guys that TSN let go in their purge are joining Sportsnet radio, with Sportsnet replacing some really mediocre voices.

Interesting couple of months out here.

 

[Beef Invictus]

They are a tire fire at every level, yes.

I have churned out a lot of rage and hatred for the people who run my sports teams. I am a Football Team fan, after all.

If any of my teams just didn't bother scouting major regions I'd go hypernuclear.

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

You can have bad management and good scouting. Case in point...

But you can't consider your management competent if your scouts are subpar.

 

[deeshamrock]

Staal probably could not get out of that room fast enough.

 

[TheKingPin]

I’d trade Provorov + TK + 1st for Jack

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Everybody’s finishing talent pretty much left their bodies in Buffalo this year like Space Jam.

Like f*** Taylor Hall isn’t going to fetch a first rounder & likely taking a bath in UFA this year. Probably a good buy low on both fronts for non-poverty franchises though.

 

[Rebels57]

I’d trade Provorov + TK + 1st for Jack

Might want them to take Jakes contract too for that haul with maybe a small add coming back with Eichel.

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

I know a lot of folks are taking this time to dunk all over you guys right now, but I still feel you are a much better team than you are showing at the moment. You guys will turn it around and make a lot of people eat crow. Good luck.

Since there’s no obvious top talents in this upcoming draft. It sounds like a perfect year for us to get “lucky” again with a high pick.

Not turning it around with the 3 Stooges behind the bench.
