funny, reading what the players were saying after their loss last night and getting booed off the ice in WINNIPEG i was wondering how much longer noel could last there...
hope paul maurice does better, but honestly, it's not like he has alot of good pieces to work with

Their forward group is solid and the defense has good offensive ability. They're lacking on the defensive aspect and Pavelec is a sieve.
their forward group isnt that good.. they have no true top end talent
kane- 1st/2nd line winger.
schiefele - 2nd/3rd centre at this point
little - 2nd/3rd centre
wheeler - 2nd/3rd line winger (hes having a career year in his contract year, always happens)
ladd - 2nd line winger
jokinen/setoguchi/frolik- 3rd/4th liners.
rest 4th/ahl.
they should trade away ladd, kane, little, and byfuglien. attempt to get some good young wingers to go with petan and schiefele. their d looks set for the future with trouba, bogosian, morrissey, kichon all being under 24

Wheeler is doing worse than his prior 2 seasons. How do you figure he's having a career year? This is also the first year of his new contract, not a contract year.
So they should trade good young wingers to try to get some good young wingers to go with a rookie center and a guy who's still playing in the CHL?
youre right about the contract, i dun goofed. as for the career year, hes on pace for around 30 goals, which would be his.. career high. for the future, it looks set with those 4. ladd is 29 this year, byfuglien 29, little 27. when the 3 players the team, city, and most analysts are talking about and thinking about are 19,20 it may be worth it to get rid of those guys if they can get younger on the wings and possibly upgrade goaltending. with noel gone now, kane may bounce back, but you also have to remember hes pissed off a few within the community with things hes done, and small communities are a tight group. you could look at it as basically cutting the thrashers part out of the organization and start a new
It's likely that Ryan Miller gets traded this year IF Buffalo trades him I wonder where he is going to go, he's been one of the only good players on the Sabres this year.
He has a limited NTC 8 teams that he will NOT go to the only known team on it right now is Edmontom and is a UFA that probably will not resign in Buffalo if he hits FA
