[Trade] E.Kane, Bogosian, Kasdorf to Buffalo for Myers, Stafford, Armia, Lemieux and 1st

[ForeverFlameFan]

The Jets win this rumor by far.

[SuperMatt18]

Yeah that Seems like lots.

Kane is pretty equal to Myers IMO, at most would be Myers+First.

Is Bogosian worth Armia + Lemieux

Maybe not as bad when you break it down like that.

Edit: forgot about Stafford. Still feels like too much, that is a better package then Seguin returned. Feel like it will be Armia or Lemieux not both.

[Huntingwhale]

It's gotta be the St. Louis 1st. Jets have quite the defense now (when healthy) if this trade happens.

[GranteedEV]

I'm not hugely knowledgable on the winnipeg depth chart, but isn't Bogosian one of their top pairing dmen?

[FlamesAddiction]

I forgot the Sabres had other 1st rounders.

Still, way too much to give. That deal, combined with Winnipeg's excellent prospect base, would really set them up for the future.

[Yoho]

Trying to figure out if this helps or hurts Winnipeg's playoff chances..

[Fighting Banana Slug]

Wow, jets do well if that is close to true. Not a big fan of Stafford, but I like Myers, Armia and Lemieux are decent prospects and a first is a great haul. Equivalent to 4 firsts?

Bogosian has been struggling this year.

It helps immensely because Kane is done for the season so they would be getting Myers and Stafford for Bogosian.

[RyZ]

Jets win this due to the fact that Kane is likely no more than a 20-25g, 45-50p guy moving forward (while missing 10+ games/season). That's a whole lot to give up for a guy that produces at a rate less than a Jiri Hudler.

Nope. He's fallen back over the past couple of seasons.

He's usually in their top-4, but even then he's fourth-choice. Buff, Enstrom and Trouba are all better, and to an extent Harrison, Postma and Chiarot have outperformed him at times this year.

Jets giving up another player too

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
1st round pick Jets acquire will be lowest of 3 of the Sabres picks. Very complicated trade. Sounds like an unsigned player from Peg as well

[sureLoss]

gary lawless @garylawless
sounds like this deal could include Alex Burmistrov #nhljets

[SuperMatt18]

Sounds like Burmastrov going back to Buffalo too.

Burmastrov, Kane, Bogosian for Myers, Stafford, Armia, Lemieux and a first makes more sense.

Still really like it for Winnipeg though. Stafford, Armia, and Myers may step into that lineup and help right away.

No, Kane is currently a 20-25G, 45-50P guy (at least he could be if he stayed healthy). Sabres are banking on him hitting his potential, which is a gamble at this point, but they have a deep prospect pool and I guess they can afford to take the risk.

I wouldn't want Calgary to take the risk, but I can see the appeal.

[JiriHrdina]

Surprised people calling this a clear win for the Jets.
Really for me the winner will be decided by which of Myers or Kane figures things out. Bogosian is a wild card in there too as if he hits his upside, that will tip things in favor of Buffalo.
I'm not big on Myers. I don't think he's going to rebound to his previous form.

And the rest of the deal is just a bunch of stuff.
Stafford: Inconsistent at best. Been a long time since he scored 30. 9 goals this year. Meh.
Lemieux: interesting prospect but probably tops out as a 3rd liner
Armia: I question if he can translate his offense to the NHL and if he can't - he won't be an NHLer.

So again - comes down to Kane/Myers and which ones gets their career back on a positive trajectory.

Tyler Myers simply isn't that good. 4-9--13 so far this year. Nine goals last year, three the year before. He had a very good rookie season, but has consistently regressed since. Playing with NHL talent will help, but I find it difficult to see him making a significant difference for the Jets.

I would put Kane as being worth far more than Myers and the First.

[Ozy_Flame]

With Burmistrov, the trade evens out more.

Have not seen a trade like that in ages. Harps back to the pre-cap era.

[Travis Munroe]

So mcdavid or eichel + the rest of your future for an attitude? Buffalo is aware that tanking involves holding onto that pick, right?
