Oilers fans didn't like the Larson for Hall trade, but we loved Larson, the guy is great. I think you will find the same with Mcleod, the trade value might not be great, but you will love the player.
I think people are under estimating McLeod a little bit. He's an excellent two-way forward who can play center or wing, anywhere in the lineup. Excellent skater with some finishing touch who is coming into his own. Kinda of like a discount Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
Yah, I understand you're not happy. But I hope you can just breathe. McLeod is like a younger and faster Nugent-Hopkins, and he has lots of playoff experience and finals experience. Nobody knows what the future holds, but I'm sad to see McLeod leave Edmonton.
There's so much to hate about the Sabres organization, starting with Terry Pegula. Two things come to mind about Savoie. First the injuries. Then you look at his stats, he's been on a number of teams. Traded at least a couple of times in the WHL. The reviews on him look good until you examine these two things.
Such a weird trade. Their second best prospect for a checking center…… How is Buffalo going to score next year? They barely have one offensive line next year.
This happened in Calgary back in the 90's when they started trading offensive prospects who they were afraid they "might" have to pay in the future. Marc Savard for Ruslan Zanullin. Back int eh 90's Calgary was avoiding paying salary. Is this happening in Buffalo.
Crazy. Not thrilled with the Konsta Helenius draft either.
Bob give your nads a tug,, Ryan is a good hockey player and Buffalo is a better team with him! Drama queen fans sure know how to make him feel welcome,,
DUDE You are WAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYY under valuing Clouder! I'm a life long Oilers fan. He is Nuggy light when it comes to his defensive game just WAY faster……..Also Tulio is a good prospect and hes NOT a D man š¤£
Bro you also have to understand your not getting a player like Clouder for nothing dude! He's way better than your giving him credit for and his Defensive game is VERY good. Just look at his numbers
Sabres always 1 step forward 2 steps back, a team with 15 million dollars in cap shouldnāt have to give up one of their top 3 prospects for a 3rd line center. This team is pretty much an AHL team always giving teams players to win cups and we get nothing!
Stop with the dramatics. Savoie drafted first round 2022 (9th) Savoie was passed by Benson last year, being passed by classmate Kulich (28th) going to be passed by Helenius. Id bet GMKA has been trying to deal Savoie since the beginning of the draft. Sabres didnāt need him they got what they needed. So many acting as if Savoie was the savior of the franchise.
Savoie is still going to have to change the way he plays before getting into the NHL. He already has an injury history in far softer leagues and if he tries to dangle through people like he does in the WHL In the NHL heās gonna fuckin die. Wish him the best, if he stays healthy, heāll be electric. Sabres prospect pool is still perfectly fine without him.
The tough part with McLeod is itās not even yet to be seen that he can be a 3C on a good team. Thatās why the Oilers brought in Henrique and moved McLeod to 4C. I really feel for Buffalo fans. We went through it for years on the bad side of these deals, and they sting
Over valuing a prospect for sure. Savoie has 3:55 NHL time because of injuries. He will probably be a wing when he makes the NHL. Buffalo has 5 other 1st round prospects in the system.
Dude, I've been a Sabres fan for 25 years. I totally feel your pain. I just don't understand some of these decisions they make. I don't know for sure what happened but what they should've done is called Steve Stamkos, and said listen. How much do you want and for how long it's yours lol it's almost like the Buffalo Sabres are being run by Disney ha ha

Least angry sabres fan
A lot of fantasy hockey with Dungeons and Dragons dice in these comments and over the trade in general.
The dude's 5'9. FIVE NINE!!
He will be lucky to have a ceiling that doesn't include LTIR and future waivers.
Oilers fans have seen this movie before, with this being the sequel "Yamamoto 2 – Let's Roll the Dice Again"
So relax Buffalo, you may just be looking back fondly on this trade in as little as a few years.
Potential 1st-2nd line player for career 3rd line centre.
Hahahahahaš

Donāt hold back Broā¦Tell us how you really feel?

This trade is awful. This will be a joke and laugh for yearsā¦ā¦ā¦.like that trade 12 years ago between Washington and Nashville
Deep down I think Sabre fans are more hurt about Jeff Skinner leaving than they are over this trade. I know I would be if I was them.
Poor Buffalo Bob lol.
Iām an Oilers fan and that was hilarious. š

Iām not a Sabres fan but Iād be screaming right now.
This could work out fine and I hope it doesā¦
But I think this trade will be looked back on the way Erat for Forsberg is looked back on in a few years down the road.
I live in Edmonton Bro, Ryans good, really good
We love this guy! And he will be missed

as a decade of darkness survivor, i thoroughly enjoyed your rant, no offense, we are brothers
As a leafs fan, i honestly feel bad for sabres fans today. This trade is an abomination.

Seemed like 2nd rounder more reasonable for a 3rd line salary dump…they could have waited until end of summer when Edm needed to deal with cap issues
Savoie is to small and to slow to play with the big boys. His upside is not as high as other prospects.
Bob give your nads a tug,, Ryan is a good hockey player and Buffalo is a better team with him! Drama queen fans sure know how to make him feel welcome,,

I liked the video right after 00:03
Ty tullio is a forward btw
The only thing that makes sense is that the Buffalo staff has soured on the kid. They will never say that publicly but the trade speaks volumes.
Mcleod is a much better winger than center. At center he provides zero offense
man your reaction couldn't be anymore spot on to mine.
Speciesism
Tullio is a winger not a defenceman.
I'm an Oilers fan and I totally welcomed this trade! š¤£
Hahaha
Buffalo bob is fired up Iām from Edmonton love this trade sabres got fuckin fleeced

I'm very happy about this now. The Sabres can miss out on the playoffs again and we can have the trophy for that lol
