Robin Lehner heading to BUF. Sounds like Lehner and Legwand to BUF for 21st pick. Pending trade call. Not official yet.

With Lehner to Buffalo, things heat up on Talbot. Oilers and Sharks still keen. Calgary also revisiting Talbot trade this morning.

Bruce Garrioch @SunGarrioch

#Sens are closing in on a deal for Lehner with the Sabres. Expect a No. 1 pick to be part of the trade and perhaps David Legwand.

Always be closing. Im not sure if this is good or bad news in terms of getting good value for Lack. Leaning towards bad tho.

While Lehner is younger than Lack, he didn't really have a great season. Lehner could be a good one, but overpayment by Buffalo IMO. He's not worth the 21st overall after the season he had this year.

Yeah, that's decent value from Ottawa's point of view, but an important destination for Lack may now be off the table. Can't see them spending the 21st and 31st picks on goaltenders, but who knows.

edmonton has a 16th if NYR wont bite at that and want more EDM can just take Lack for it. NYR imo just trying to make up for the fleecing they got in the Callahan/st louis deal.

I can't see it hurting his value too bad. They're going to get a pretty good player at 21. Legwand seems more like a cap dump then anything. 34 year old making 3.5 for 29 points. Still a decent player but no where near where he was in his prime.

Poor David Legwand. Closing in on 1,000 GP for one franchise, now on his fourth team in two seasons.

For Buffalo, they get a good goalie, plus an expensive 3LC to help them over the minimum salary threshold.

I'd say fair deal all told.
