Staalilla oli mielenkiintoinen lähestymistapa no trade -listan kasaamiseen. Toisaalta ymmärrettävä, toisaalta riskialtis.
"First of all, on a personal note, there are few better hockey markets than Buffalo, generally speaking. However, given the events of recent years, you can see why so many fans were asking that question Wednesday in the aftermath of the Minnesota Wild being able to move the 35-year-old centre to the Sabres without his consent.
The answer to the question, according to a source close to the matter, is that the 10 teams on Staal’s list were populated mostly by playoff clubs that kept calling Minnesota over the last few years to see if they could convince the centre to move at the deadline.
It never occurred to Staal or his veteran agent Rick Curran that the struggling Sabres would see fit to trade for a player who will turn 36 on Oct. 29."
