...<i>He makes the same points as you. Is that a sign?</i><br /><br />A sign that Bucky is right for once in his life? Absolutely. :D<br /><br />Joe, I'm totally with you on the top 6 being changed, but I think Darcy is probably right that that's best done in the off-season when everyone isn't trying to give up as little as they can going into the playoffs. I'd love to trade Derek Roy, but he's worth more than 25 games of Joe Corvo. I reserve the right to change my opinion at the beginning of next season if there haven't been a few more changes made.<br /><br />I don't agree that the Sabres are necessarily one and done this year, but that does depend on them getting back to the boring but efficient system they were effectively playing earlier this year. <br /><br /><i>And on a side note, I wonder if Regier dumped MacArthur just so that Torres can wear #41?</i><br /><br />Hee! The money AND the jersey numbers worked out. He HAD to pull the trigger.<br /><br />I've decided I really want the Sabres to make a play for Kaberle in the off-season. (If the Leafs miss the playoffs, his no-trade is null and void for the off-seaon.) That would be a huge piece. I'm probably dreaming on that one but hey, sometimes you gotta.Heather B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06796852014625052317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099439052359653516.post-28518080803586527542010-03-04T10:08:54.176-05:002010-03-04T10:08:54.176-05:00The best part of Olympic "ceremony" was ...The best part of Olympic "ceremony" was when they showed Miller acknowledging the fans.

But like you said, there wasn't a guy like that who moved yesterday that had me facepalming.<br /><br />The one area I kind of wish the Sabres would have shored up a bit would have been at the 3rd/4th line center spot.<br /><br />Eric Belanger moving from Minnesota to Washington was a guy I would have liked the Sabres to take a swing at.<br /><br />The problem is that I liked Torres more than Belanger and it could have been an either/or scenario as the Sabres likely wouldn't have given up their 2010 1st for Belanger and that may have been what they would have needed to give up after dealing the 2nd that they had to C'Bus for Raffi.<br /><br />And on a side note, I wonder if Regier dumped MacArthur just so that Torres can wear #41?James Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04181293044620877342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099439052359653516.post-77787030761479103042010-03-04T09:32:28.656-05:002010-03-04T09:32:28.656-05:00I saw the title of your post and nearly spit out m...I saw the title of your post and nearly spit out my coffee.

However, a part of me likes what he did today. He traded for a solid rental, whose actually the number one scorer of all the players traded today. However, those dam top 6 forwards are still here!!! I’d have loved if Darcy decided to shake up the team, because some of those guys just don’t get. I really hope his excuse that the summer is where it's at, is going to be the end of some of those turds.<br /><br />Also, if Darcy loves his Pirates, I don’t see why Matt Ellis or Adam Mair still have to be here. Lets see what those guys can do. <br /><br />As for the big picture, I think we can all come to an agreement that unless Ryan Miller becomes Captain America, we are going to be one and done in the playoffs. Now, I have absolutely no problem with Darcy building through the draft. Yes, it bores me to tears and makes me envious of the majority of the top 8 teams in the east. But that’s his way and it has worked for Detroit and Pittsburgh. Ugh! I'm becoming an apologist. <br /><br />However, I just hope that Ennis, Kassian, Gerbe don’t become Roy, Stafford and Kotalik of 2011. Because if that happens, I'm done.joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06053813036084872909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099439052359653516.post-84978896397109070472010-03-04T00:27:04.364-05:002010-03-04T00:27:04.364-05:00Opps, message was cut off..did you see Bucky's...Opps, message was cut off..did you see Bucky's article tonight?
