Quoting: CD282
That BUF trade makes zero sense to me. Bear is more than capable of playing 2RD (he's been playing 1RD most of the season) and Benning has an excellent track record of winning 3RD minutes and can also play 2RD if needed.
You're giving up your 4th best forward on the team at 5v5 (Gagner), a good prospect (Lagesson) and a pick to acquire something the team doesn't need.
You kidding me? LoL no he's not. He needs to play some less minutes. How many times does he watch the puck, misplay the puck, bad reads. Also gets beat lots in foot races. He isn't getting his shot through as much as he'd like either. .maybe I'm watching a different rookie than you . But I guess you like 2 rookies in the NHL. Maybe Bogosian isn't the best guy to look for. But I'd like to find someone who isn't going to cost an arm and a leg to acquire.
Ya but you gotta clear some cap space If we were to get a goalie like Lehner. Ennis can skate, score. Gagner isnt the marquee guy you're making him out to be. I like him but he doesn't have the legs he used too. Also, lagesson is going to be pushing for an NHL job soon . How many left defensemen do we need? klefbom,nurse , Russell, Jones, lagesson samurkov, broberg. Only 3 NHL jobs. But give me some better ideas on who you'd like to see.
