Cosmic Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I thought about going full manifesto, but the short version is that the Sabres gave up a lot to get Evander Kane, a guy that has scored more than 43 points in a season only once. He has had off-ice issues. He didn't fit in in Winnipeg... what makes anyone think he'll like it in Buffalo? They're both small, cold-weather cities where people will bug him about the power play in the produce section. I hope it will work, but I don't think it will.It's exciting/frightening to see the future take shape. It was a lot simpler to think, "These 75 first-round picks will all be on the roster in three years and we'll never lose!!!1!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbadefense1990 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 To Buffalo: Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian and a prospectTo Winnipeg: Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, two prospects, first round pick (via St. Louis)1) Yes. Embrace the tank, Buffalo.2) Winnipeg made an NHL player trade, and a pretty good one. Push Jets, pushShouldn't it be...*puts on sunglasses*...fly Jets, fly?

mamiller99 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Yknow, it's fun watching the Nucks and Jackets. One team is exciting, and the other one can be exciting some days, other days they wanna make you drink really hard alcohol.

DaRadniz29 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 "I learned San Jose in trouble" - Mike Milbury shut up Milburf! They've lost 3 in a row, this is nothing new. This is not the NFL a three game losing streak is not good, but they are not "in trouble". At least not yet. sheesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 I'm not entirely convinced the Sharks make the playoffs. A deadline deal might change that, but with Minnesota and Los Angeles pushing, and Calgary and Vancouver (and Winnipeg) continuing to exceed expectations, it wouldn't shock me at all if the Sharks were the ones to drop out. The team feels past its expiration date. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Probably for the best since they'd just choke in the 1st our 2nd round as usual. Canucks, Kings and Wild all have three games in hand... Flames and Stars have 2. Not looking good for team teal black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The team feels past its expiration date.Oh yeah, the Sharks played better in the Second and Third period last night but not a full game. I think if they stop acting like the Harlem Globetrotters of Hockey (fancy dekes, 90 stretch passes when that pass isn't open) and get some players back from injury, they are a top tier playoff-caliber team. If they want a work a trade maybe move Burns back to Forward and pick up a defensive Defenseman, but Burns on the top line with Thornton and Pavelski, move Karlsson to the Couture and Marleau line or move on of the to the third line. Though the only guy I could see them moving if they want to continue with the "young player development model" is moving Hannan for another veteran. Would they/could they move Dillon?Here's the stats comparison: Brendan Dillon: -92 Goals6 Assists8 Points31 Penalty MinutesScott Hannan: +21 Goal3 Assists4 Points22 Penalty Minutes I was just mad at Milbury because having a losing streak and being able to hold serve and/or make up ground in February is much different than it is to have a losing streak and being able hold serve and/or make up ground in mid-to-late March/early April. I suppose that's picking on Milbury, because maybe that's not the way he thinks maybe NBCSN had him drum it up for TV/Entertainment value. Also, credit to Couture who tells it like it is, “Soft around our net again,” said Couture, who scored his 20th goal in the second period. “It seems like every game the other team is scoring some pretty easy goals. We’re not making it tough. It’s on the defense, it’s on the forward playing low to be harder around our net.”I Know they have to respect the shooting ability of the capitals and all, but letting them walk right into the zone in the middle of the ice is giving just a bit too much. I guess one could say you can also see how much the Sharks need Vlasic, when he's not in their D just drops off. Add Braun not in the lineup and make it tough, but you play with the hand you are dealt that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninersdd Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Yeah I wonder if the Sharks have a deadline deal up their sleeves. I also wonder if they shake up the team by canning McClellan before the year is out. The team has struggled with the weaker teams this year and like I said before the race for the division could be much more interesting if they did how they beat them like they were supposed to. Nothing against the Flames, but it's pretty bad to only take 1 of 5 against them in the season series. After playing in AZ tomorrow, the team has a brutal stretch after that(vs TB, @NSH, @DAL, vs LA). Hopefully the team can finally play up to their potential one of these days. The Stadium Series game with the Kings better not be like the when the other tenant there embarrassed themselves against their hated rival.
