The way it works is this: over hyped kid is treated like Jesus, shows up to a team unprepared to develop or shelter him, plays 20 minutes against grown ups, fails to pick up good habits because there is no one to pick them up from, becomes disillusioned and produces 50-60 points for a couple years, media turns on him and his career is ruined. This is the Sabers rebuilding, by giving away their first round draft pick ?? Replacing one highly drafted but never reaching his potential defenseman for another?? As much as I think he's overrated and destined to be a 40-50pt dude, they turned Stafford into Kane, who still is only 23 I think. I think most would argue that Bogosian is at least a top 4 dman and an upgrade on myers or at worst a lateral move. Personally I do think Winnipeg will win since they got two middle of the pack prospects and a 1st on top of that for a guy that 100% wanted out everyone knew it. They got a top 9 forward in Stafford so that helps short term too. I just really don't see Kane as ever evolving into a true 1st liner. | ||

To Q-Hawk: Why, the guy played on two shit teams and now on the third. Its like Yakupov is ruined forever and will run away to the KHL if they ever go back to paying in dollars instead of toilet paper but if he ended up on the Red Wings he would be a premier, 75 point guy like Tatar and Nyquist are on the way to becoming. Thats the same thing with McDavid, some teams just act like a factor of talent building -- look at the Preds and their d-men factory -- and some teams are just there to ruin young players forever -- Edmonton first and foremost. | ||

With most trades, the team who gets the superstar is almost always the winner. I think in this case E. Kane will show how horribly misunderstood and under appreciated he was in Winnipeg. He's a real threat to score 30+ goals, and drives possession forward quite well, and is young and on a decent contract. Buffalo will probably win this trade barring a fantastic development from the prospects sent to Winnipeg. | ||

Apparently it was Buffalo GM's first player for player trade so it may be understandable he has no idea what he's doing. | ||

I see them both locked up though 18/19 on nhlnumbers. Meyers has the higher cap hit (5.5 vs 5.1) | ||
