ScoreMoreThan3 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Ha...yea @incarceratedbob also said the Texas Rangers were 90% done on closing the deal w/ Prince Fielder. Sometimes he's got some good info but we argued so many times that he eventually blocked me lol. Which shouldn't be a surprise to many. He used to retweet me a lot tho..so that was cool.

Marshall Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I can't remember a single trade, barring the Kovalchuk one, where we heard the Devils were in on it. And, tbh, the Kovy trade was a different animal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its widely known that Fielder was that close to the Rangers til the Tigers got involved. He never said it was done unlike some that did.

Amberite Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 This guy is pretty reliable, so lets hope this is true. He's also saying Gomez is done in Montreal after the break, so maybe we're trading for Gomez? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghdi Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Just out of curiousity "Ducks/Sabres/Tampa/Habs" Who could the Devils potentially be going after? Who could be gone? Top 6 fwd and d-man.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeControl Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I'm not familiar with his hockey rumors but his NYJ info BLOWS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aylbert Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I could maybe possibly see ... someone taking him off the Habs in the offseason... as he is owed 10mm over the next two years, but carries a 7.3 cap hit... but that's a stretch. I also don't see why the Habs would need to bury him in the minors... at the deadline they can absorb 10mm in contracts. You could always bury Gomez in the minors the following year if they aren't expiring deals... So where's the benefit of trading him now, or sending him to the minors?

ghdi Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 So where's the benefit of trading him now, or sending him to the minors? Scott Gomez not being on the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I'm not familiar with his hockey rumors but his NYJ info BLOWS! He had the Schottenheimer move long before the season ended along with the stuff from other players about Sanchez being too comfortable, to his credit. That all became main stream after the season and he mentioned it with a few weeks to go in the season. I know he's not always right, but he's also pretty good at pointing out if it's just a rumor or if he has confirmation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRZYRIPPER Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Just out of curiousity "Ducks/Sabres/Tampa/Habs" Top 6 fwd and d-man.... Parise for stamkos and hedman...lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoArmySports Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Hopefully Lou can work some of his old magic! But to touch on Fielder for a second, 9 years, 214 million is just a jawdropping bad contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 29th Pick Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Don't believe it. Lou always strikes when everybody least expects it. I believe it, look at the time frame...1 to 3 weeks, thats between now and the trade deadline basically, we usually do some kind of deal this time of year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Parise for stamkos and hedman...lol Id personally pack praises bags and drive him to the airport if that trade happened but I know it will not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitico12 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Derek Roy? Jason Pomminville? Drew Stafford? Dominic Moore? Plekanec? Who knows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarpathianForest Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Stafford is a RW so he'd be a plus. Pominville is probably not in the mix of Sabres. The only decent and needed D Man from Montreal would be Hall Gill. Visnovksy from the Ducks perhaps. But the Ducks have been doing better as of late and they're probably in wait and see mode. TB. Brewer, Kubina, Gilroy, Ohlund 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevils1214 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 While the Sabres need offense I don't see NJ doing anything "Parise big" with Buffalo. As it is right now they are out of the playoff race and we are not. Parise is going to be a UFA anyway so rolling the dice he will resign there makes no sense. NJ could do Roy and Leopold for Parise and Greene but then Zach could just resign here in the off season anyway. At least that is how I see it.

If we trade Zach, I dont think it will be to an Eastern Conference team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
