Do you think Florida would trade him to Buffalo for Kulich and Levi?

Or

Rosen and Savoie?

Ostlund and Benson?

Would 1 of these elite prospects alone get it done?

They’re trying to figure out how they’re going to extend/re-sign him this summer (or sooner),...along with Montour and Forsling.

No Clause on his contract, but I doubt he’d be happy to come back

What does it cost to bring him back?

The second goal...was like he reached out and put it right past Bob far side. Don’t know how to describe it any better. Sick shot beat Bob clean

I could get over a one year deal, but two is a bridge too far.


@CMDeDominicis
I’ll just address what I know. As I reported last week, I believe a two-year offer was put on the table.

A few numbers I heard ranged from $3-4 million but please don’t run with that. Not confirmed just sharing.

No official decision has been made that I’m aware of but

Reports have indicated Patrick Kane is looking to narrow his options & it sounds like the Sabres are willing to do a multi-year ask.

Kane has been here rehabbing for awhile now.

Obviously his family lives here. So is he here for business or pleasure

Word from the street is he jumped on a grenade back in Grenada in 82, lost a leg, hasn’t been the same ever since.

focus on team defense and then sign Kane

that ranks up there with saying you are going heavy on fancy stats, and don't

Tage is a good player. However he’s not the 50g 100pt player you think he is.

If you minus a few anomalies like the 5 goal outing and three hatricks, to a more realistic points total he loses 12 goals off the final stats.

I put Thompson at a career 35 goal scorer with 40 assists puts him at 75 points which is realistic.

When do we get to send Girgensons or Okposo packing ?
- Buff36


Why? Their a good fourth line, something every team in the playoffs need.

Do you watch gams?

I mean Savoie has dropped 90+ points 2 seasons in a row in the WHL.

I’m sure being around NHL players and the conditioning stint will benefit him to an extent moving forward but 4 minutes in a game then sent down is wowza

- Swedish_Jesus


180 pts in two season of teenage hockey means nothing, zippo, zilch in the nhl.

My hope was to see him on a line with Benson.

The point was that 5 goal games are anomalies that don’t happen very often.

Kane is the appetizer, what are your thoughts on the McDavid trade to Buffalo?
- Theguywiththething


Lmao, Mc David to Buffalo, hahaha

So what’s your trade proposal for him?

We’re going to surround him with a team of promoted AHL’ers because we’d have to trade the whole current team to get him.

Why not throw in a pack of juicy fruit to see if we can get Draisatl included.
