With JBo finally coming off the books after next year, and Wideman and Giordano signed for a long time, I don't see Calgary taking Volchenkov.

Although it is Feaster.

Agreed that there is no way Calgary takes on volchys contract. But in all honesty I do think volchys game could be a lot more effective and he might be a lot more successful in the western conference even though he has never played on a western team obviously.

Drew Stafford is having an awful start of the season. And our announcers made it seem like the Sabres were pretty down on him at present.

I know it is crack smoking territory, Stafford seeming like a blue chip, high first round pick, but maybe they want Tallinder back to bolster their atrocious D and would take a package including Josefson.

Considering what we gave for Kovy, stranger things have happened (at least once).

And Drew would be a top 6 guy here.

Even if some Tallinder-Stafford type deal makes sense I doubt Lou would risk pawning off one of our defensemen to a playoff contender in-season when they and everyone else are gaining fast on us.

Despite beating us, not sure the Sabres are much of a contender.

Buffalo's three points out of a playoff spot now. Which shows how mediocre the East is, considering how bad the Sabres were for the first twenty games. But in it is in it, there's really no East team out of it at this point. I doubt Lou's dealing off any NHL player to another East team this year, especially the longer we continue to play towards the bubble.

Cammalleri is a stud in the playoffs and I doubt he would cost much.

I know it probably would never happen but what about Danny Briere? I would love his playoff production on our top 6 and I see the flyers trading him this season..

Us doing a deal with the Flyers is unlikely, especially since we supposedly turned down a better offer from them for Langs than what we got from Dallas a couple years ago. Not to mention they're as much in the mix as anyone else in the East for a spot.

Or how about the Flyers in 8th place after how bad they seem to have been for the first 20 games of the season?

Though they've played more games than anybody in the conference I think. The southeast is still wide open. Florida is done, and I'm confident of that. Even Oatsey, and the Caps are jekyll and hyde. Remember that ''playoff'' Jets team that beat us twice in a row?:laugh: They got shutout 3-0 by Holtby yesterday in their own building. The Canes also lost Cam Ward tonight. Not sure for how long. He hasn't been good this year, but I'd rather have him as my starter than Dan frickin Ellis.

Well since Volchenkov +2nd was good enough for that Flames fan...how about Tallinder + 2nd for Cammy. I said that because you don't know if Anton will agree to waive his NTC or not. Tallinder doesn't have a NTC so wouldn't it be only logical to say that he's the most expendable d-man in regards to a trade?

If Volch sits for long maybe he asks for a trade? I don't know for sure, but it's worth thinking about.

SOmeone proposed Purcell+ for Larsson on the main board. Oh my god the lulz

Also, someone please tell me why we're trying to trade for Weiss, a center, when we're set down the middle in Zajac Henrique, JJ/Loki, Gionta?

Henrique can play wing if we get Weiss. It would probably make the lineup deeper.

Weiss is also pretty good in the faceoff circle, which is something this team could use.

Does anybody know how well he and DeBoer got along in Florida?
