Better not be trading for Stewart.

There is no "edition" in the thread title.

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

Murray do anything

Anything

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Why? The sabres got vets, but are still in the process of rebuilding. We can still rebuild properly even if we get vets.

Do you want to become the oilers?

I guess what I should have said is I'd rather not trade some of the team's better youth and picks for vets.

If they're getting him for scraps, awesome. But i doubt Tim Murray allows that to happen

We should name it the "Murray better re-sign Ryan" edition.

Mods are slippin.

"False hopes and broken dreams edition"

 

[BigRig4]

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

 

[SelleckStache]

NQ5 edition

 

[Do Make Say Think]

If Prince doesn't want to be here, and him making the NHL on Ottawa seems like a long shot then trading him for someone who could help would be great

Stewart though.... Not too excited about that possibility

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

Lecavalier since he would likely cost less. Losing Prince might not hurt Ottawa but it could hurt Bingo and Bingo being successful is something I consider important for a cap floor team

 

[The Waffler]

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

It's probably both.

 

[Benjamin]

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

Depends on the deal. Ideally, neither.

Lets be honest. Do you ever seen a guy like Shane Prince getting a shot with this team? They already only have one spot for Stone/Hoffman, assuming they don't bench Condra or Neil.

Of course i would not give up prospects like Lazar, Pageau, Puemple, Stone, Hoffman, etc.

But if it is just Prince + a low pick or something, then fine. Wasn't it reported that Prince wanted off the team anyhow during the middle of last season?

 

[WORLDSTARHIPHOP]

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

Vinny in our situation, not close

 

[NyQuil]

I'd say Stewart has more upside.

Lecavalier is on the down-swing.

Stewart MIGHT have some kind of rebound. He's only 26.

Vinny will always be judged on his past accomplishments which could be a bit dicey with this crowd in Ottawa.

 

[Marty Straka]

Lecavalier >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Stewart.

 

[HSF]

Stewart cause he is a winger and is more skilled at this point also a lot younger

 

[BonkTastic]

So Lecavalier vs. Stewart, who would you guys prefer?

Well, apparently if we get Vinny, we GET assets with him.

If we get Stewart, we GIVE assets to get him.


... For the same cap hit/ salary, I'll take Vinny, AINEC.

 

[Super Cake]

We could honestly be getting both Stewart and Vinny, but i doubt Melnyk would allow it.

 

[MakeOttawaGreatAgain]

I'm gonna call it and say we dump Greening and pick up all 3 off Vinny, Stewart, and Hodgson...

Oh, and did I mention Evander Kane? Murray loves troubled youth from Vancouver.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

Vinny @ 2M/ year i would take over Stewart.

 

[benjiv1]

MacArthur-Turris-Ryan
Michalek-Zibanejad-Chiasson
Hoffman-Lecavalier-Lazar/Stone
Condra-Smith-Neil (Condra on his off wing, forcing MacLean to only play this line 8 mins a night)

I like it.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

BTW, Vinny has a NMC, would he even waive to come here? Didn't he turn down MTL for Philly? Does he want to play in Canada?

 

[pm88]

Id be more excited if this was the Lecavalier from 8 years ago coming here.. not the one now. This guy looks like he's done soon
