Andy Pred 48 337 Report post Posted December 22, 2013 (edited) I was thinking that we could do with some vet presence on the blue line and a player i feel who would fit in great is Tallinder at Buffalo. Now im sure he is a fa at the end of the season the same as our Quincey. This deal straight up i dont think Buffalo would do but maybe a combination that may be classed as a blockbuster could swing it. To Buffalo: Howard , Quincey, Kindl and Tootoo To Detroit: Miller, Tallinder and McCormick. By all accounts Miller is done in Buffalo and i would say welcome a move to his home town team. Also he is a fa at the end of 13-14 and i would say we could re-sign him for less than we payed Howard who i feel is overpaid. We get the extra vet on D that we need and we sweeten the deal by throwing Kindl in as more depth for the Sabres that they need. Tootoo and McCormick is more or less a like for like, or we could see what other player they would take if not Tootoo. Yeah i knowvits Sabres!!

JasonNewEra 84 Report post Posted December 22, 2013 Holland isn't known for his trades, he isn't Dave Dombrowski. If he was, this would have happened though. Howard is here to stay and so is Kindl most likely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted December 22, 2013 What is so wrong with having two good goaltenders pushing each other? I'd rather not trade either one of them safe for some overpayment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DeGraa55 Report post Posted December 22, 2013 Why do we want some defenseman anyways. Its not our problem. We need some halfway decent forwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seraph 240 Report post Posted December 23, 2013 The thought of a Howard - Miller trade is actually very interesting. Probably unlikely as mentioned, but I think worth discussing because of Miller's connection to Detroit and his brother. Plus I know Holland is well connected with the Sabers organization, or at least he was in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted December 23, 2013 Tallinder is no better than Kindl. Howard and Miller are pretty equal and I'd rather give a McCormick spot to one of our guys like Jurco or Sheahan. The only positive is that Quincey would be gone.

Andy Pred 48 337 Report post Posted January 10, 2014 how about just Miller for Howard? This would give both players the chance to play for their home state team. We should sound Miller out about a 2 year deal at the end of his current contract thus giving Mrazek 2 years as back up before taking over the starters role, i just think Kenny overpaid Howard and the deal was to long. 1 frankgrimes reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miller - Monster would definately be a nice tandem, another plus would be having one more local boy with the big club, helps to get fans more excited for the team again. Sadly, I don't think Buffalo is going to take this trade and the asking price for Miller is going to be very high, howard alone wouldn't do it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think Miller in goal is going to get anyone pumped up. Winning is going to get fans pumped up, and that's not going to happen consistently until some people get back into the lineup.

BadgerBob 297 Report post Posted January 22, 2014 I think this idea has been tossed around somewhere else on the forum, but I saw this on SI.com's truth & rumors section, multiple sources are saying the Sabres are looking to deal Moulson by the deadline. http://www.fannation.com/truth_and_rumors/view/410852-sharp-shooting-moulson-on-the-block-again?eref=sihp I'm not sure what it would take to realistically get this guy, but I think he'd be a good fit here and could help us out.
