Sabres acquire rights to Jimmy Vesey from Preds for 3rd round pick

Didn't Poile say he wasn't going to trade him? I mean, I know, just for reference.

He also went on a little bit of a crazy rant claiming he didn't make trades at the deadline because he had promised/committed to playing Vesey in the top 6 in the middle of a playoff push and that Vesey was a dirty stinking rat who had no right to change his mind and decided to go for free agency as he was owned by Nashville.

Fun day, that was. Poile does not come out of this looking too shiny.
