Who wants Pominville?

Apparently, Pominville talks are not going well (as per HB) will Buffalo.

I would give my left Macadamia to get this guy on the Sens......

I know, I know he's an RFA....

Not going well eh? That's not good news for the Sabres based on how previous negotiations have gone with the likes of Briere, Drury and Campbell. I wonder if Pominville is the next to leave town?

I have a 5 X 5 to offer.

How the heck do we make room for that?

I don't care, just do it. The guy is heart and grit on skates. It will never happen though....

Yeah, you're probably right 29. It's an interesting bit of news none the less :D

5 million for the second liner we've always wanted? I'll make room, how much do we need? We have 4 and we want to keep 1.5, so we have 2.5, we need another 2.5...

McAmmond is 0.875, so we need another 1.5 million give or take...Neil is 1.1, if you want to keep him, Schubert is 0.880, if you want to keep him...and so on.

Pomminville is the kind of guy that would look very good on the Sens.

So we dont have to make room right now as he comes cheap so we can worry about resiging him in the off season as he is an RFA. as well Between Kuba and Gerber off the books we could afford him

Ok,

To Buffalo:
Nikulin
Schubert
Hennessy

To Ottawa:
Pomeville
4th round pick

That doesn't really free up the needed room.

I'd offer for him this:

McCammond, Nikulin, Neil and San Jose's 1st

For Pominville


Heatley-Spezza-Vermette
Alfie-Fisher-Pominville
Ruttu-Kelly-Foligno
Donovan/Winchester-Bass-Schubert

Hmmm. Counter offer by the Sabres (and it's an obvious one because of his father)

Foligno and a 2nd

for

Pomminville.

Straight up challenge.

For Pominville

I don't like giving up on Foligno, but Pominville would solidify this roster.

Heatley-Spezza-Vermette
Alfie-Fisher-Pominville
Ruttu-Kelly-Winchester
Donovan-Bass-Schubert

I think Foligno could come out of your proposal and just add McAmmond to mine. Buffalo gets some solid depth and leadership. As for Neil I am not comfortable with keeping him in the east. I'd rather send him out west if possible.


Fisher – Spezza – Heatley

Pominville - Vermette - Alfie

Donovan – Kelly - Folingo

Winchester– Bass – Ruuto


So here is another question if a package could be put together who would prefer O'Sullivan or Pomiville?

Get on the horn, Gillis.

To Buffalo

Kevin Bieksa
Los Angeles's 3rd rounder (from Cloutier)
Janick Hansen

To Vancouver

Jason Pominville

Probably wouldnt be enough, but we really dont have alot of trade bait, although Bieksa would certainly help their "D", and god knows we need some goals.

as much as I love Foligno, Pominville is >

that's hilarious... WhambamCam and I were discussing this VERY topic earlier in the day. He asked me point blank if I would take him, assuming Murray could finesse him over and cap-wise it would fit, and I had actually said a vehement YES!

A 70pt guy on a team that lost Drury, Briere and were struggling to snag 8th place. I'd LOVE to have him suit up for the Sens.

I agree with Heater too... Whatever Murray needs to do to make room, DO IT!

I'd hate to lose Foligno, because mark my words, he is going to have an AMAZING season this year...

Oh for sure, but he's older and is about to be way more expensive. So you get a first rounder who's NHL ready and a 2nd rounder.

Not sure they'd do it with Schubert or something of value (not McAmmond, sorry), but it's worth a try.
