I got this in my contract year.  Otherwise, expect me to half-ass every other GDT.

I'm pretty sure you two are still hoping to be drafted.

Stastny and Staal are #1 centers?  When did this happen?

Read the words.  I did not say they were.  I said I would even be open to specifically those two guys.  Thanks for your indept commentary though.

There isn't a player on this team I wouldn't trade for a #1 center.  I'd even be open to anyone in Buffalo for Stasny or Staal (if the Sabres could sign him to a multi year contract.)

There is no forward on this team better, and the Defence is pretty deep as long as only one is being subtracted.  As for Miller, yes he can be good but not even close to what the team could add with the subtraction of his salary.

So nobody on the Sabres is better than Stastny or Staal and you'd trade anybody for them, but you don't consider them #1 centers?  So you'd trade ANYBODY on the Sabres straight up for a #2 center?  I find that to be a bit of a stretch.

Didn't say straight up.  I would make anyone available.  And as far as straight up the only two I wouldn't offer for either one of those two players are Myers and Ehrhoff.  If you are going to deal only in absolutes, please do not respond to anything I say unless you are in a position to make Sabres deals.  the question was asked who would not trade.
