ALMO to BURE Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Is it possible to sign him for the Comets? Or do we have to sign him and put him on wavers to send him down? It seems the Comets can't find the net with a map and a compass, so any help would be welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanKeslord17 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 then why isn't he producing anything? Hate to say it but is any one player aside from Higgins really producing in our forward chart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming him right now would mean that he has to stay in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Building Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Stanton was specifically targetted by MG and management. He wasn't a random waiver pick up that happened to work out. You could say that about every waiver player that you have to specifically single out to select off of waivers. Waivers are random. There are never guarantees that the player you want gets there, and if he does there are no guarantees that he isn't a bum. My point was that not every player is worth a go that slides onto waivers, obviously right? Stanton was. Omark might not be but at this point who the hell cares? It's worth a shot.

Guest Gumballthechewy Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 I love how everyone is like "Free player with nothing to lose? Screw that noise!" Look at what a new team did for Raymond, not saying the same thing would happen here but you never know until you try and there is literally nothing to lose.

Look at what a new team did for Raymond, not saying the same thing would happen here but you never know until you try and there is literally nothing to lose. I'd rather ice a Kellan Lain or a Darren Archibald. Stay within our own system, if he can't make it in Edmonton or Buffalo - he sure as hell won't play well under Torts. If he can't play D, he is crap in Torts' Eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabreFan1 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 Not exactly a shocker .... Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC Cote (TB), Omark (BUF) and Zolnierczyk (PIT) all clear waivers. I would be a little surprised if Omark reported to Rochester. If he's smart, he'll head back to the European leagues. He can't even stay on the roster of the NHL's 2 worst teams.

Dazzle Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I'd rather ice a Kellan Lain or a Darren Archibald. Stay within our own system, if he can't make it in Edmonton or Buffalo - he sure as hell won't play well under Torts. If he can't play D, he is crap in Torts' Eyes. Our system is lacking in offensive wingers. Burrows should be scratched and allow him time to recover. He's got the worst plus/minus on the team and is a shadow of his old self. Omark needs a change in scenery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tas Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 omark HAD a change of scenery and it made no difference. he is comprehensively useless. prototypical offensive player that'll never be good enough for the top 6 and can't be played in the bottom 6.

apollo Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 as someone said before... when Buffalo, a rebuilding team, waives you, you know you're in trouble of making it in any NHL team what good is this guy on a roster that demands heavy body sacrifice and hard fore check anyway?

n00bxQb Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 The panthers waived grabner Grabner sucked, got good for a short period of time 3 years ago, and has sucked since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gross-Misconduct Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Grabner sucked, got good for a short period of time 3 years ago, and has sucked since. And the Canucks picked him ahead of Claude Giroux, Patrik Berglund and Milan Lucic....of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n00bxQb Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 And the Canucks picked him ahead of Claude Giroux, Patrik Berglund and Milan Lucic....of course. To be fair, Grabner was ranked 15th amongst North American skaters, so projected to be a mid 1st round pick. Giroux was 38th (mid 2nd) Lucic was 58th (mid 3rd) Berglund wasn't on the ISS top 30 and was ranked 8th among European skaters (early-to-mid 2nd) None of those guys were real options at #14 unless Nonis had huge cahones. Of course, if Nonis hadn't traded 6 of our picks, including two 2nds, for complete garbage players who never played another game for the Canucks after mid-April 2006 (and all but 1 never played in the NHL again), we could've had Lucic. Chris Stewart would've been the guy to take. 8th among CSS ranked NA skaters, dropped to 18th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzle Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Grabner-Kesler-Raymond was also a really good line too. Soooooo fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Midget battle 2014: Omark vs. Schroeder: Omark is flashier on the shootout and more european. Schroeder can take faceoffs. How many players do we see in the NHL who have a decent season and then leverage that into a multi year career. In Omark's case it was one nifty move in front of the net.
