That was the plan anyway. I don't think a 1st round upset was their plan lol. Kass is mainly there to protect the star players, and from what I can tell his doing a really good job.
That was sarcasm.
Their looking everywhere for answers. The problem for them now was the same when Miller got run by Lucic for us. Your star gets run and you start doubting yourself, they fall apart.
I don't buy that for one minute. His struggling and getting far too frustrated but if he takes it slow and has a little fun all will work out. His still a rookie and the change from Vancouver to Buffalo has to be a big one. Styles, offensive prowess, etc.
Nobody with the worst +/- on the Sabres gets put in our top 4 (Regehr). Myers is our franchise defenseman and probably the best 2 way Dman on our team (Ehrhoff is much better than he was but I feel I can rely on Myers at both ends while Ehrhoff is more offensive).
I agree, I also like the article on the front page about him, backs up that 'clutch' image.
Nice, hadn't heard that. As much of a disaster as it's been for us this year, especially him, I can't help but like him.
Dear cyclists, before any of you moan about drivers any more please DONT RUN RED LIGHTS! Yet again I see cyclists choose what road rules they want to abide by. Don't want to be treated like scum on the roads, start abiding by the laws of the road like everyone else. Tossers.
Ah ok, thought it was more. I still think Leino's game type suits Vanek and Pom better than Roy. Also he is slightly bigger so might be better in that regard too.
I'd prefer $4mill anchoring the 3rd line than the 5.7 or whatever Leino's on pay wise. Whether it's fair or not I think it would help fans perception and maybe even the players if Leino went on the top line.
Don't get me wrong, he worked hard at the things he was good at but I've always felt thats all he did. He was never terribly physical, never a fighter, never an energy player. He is one of the best at his game but his gone now so do we just hope we can resign him or do we see if we can get a physical, hard presence who can also take faceoffs?
I'm also quite for getting some new blood in the ranks. Gausted was a big useful center but I think he is guilty of coasting at times, relying on being good at PK and faceoffs to not always be the best he can be, certainly offensively.
