Regier Talks Trade Deadline
Comments that Sabres GM Darcy Regier made yesterday can be found in a Globe and Mail article from this morning. "There will be a lot of players shifting teams. Unfortunately, as indicated by the past, most of the trades will not amount to much." "I'm not suggesting the players involved will not have value. But the impact of most of the trades is not nearly as big as the hype." "I don't put a lot of value in the rental market because I don't see the sense in giving up assets for someone who will become an unrestricted free agent in a few months. You've got to get someone who will help you beyond this year." "I don't feel obligated to make a move just for the sake of making a move. We have some kids in the American Hockey League who are almost ready to come up and they could help us as much as anyone we could trade for."
