He was a star in Canada. He was on their National Team, one of the best team junior teams in the world. He is better than what we are seeing right now, its there. -

I know you don't care for him, and you have data to back up your case. I just don't think we are dealing with a mature hockey player yet. Yes he has 300 games, but everyone matures and develops differently. He will be better at some point. (See Sam Bennett, drafted at 4OA. Not much scoring production for 6-7 years). Honestly I think the 3rd line is his floor, but a place were he could perform better right now. I still believe he can play up on a 2nd line at some point in the future. Would like to see him play without kids even younger than him for a change. So many of these younger players, the "Sabres only" ones, are going through a big learning process. -
Well Mr. @Brawndo thanks for posting this. I have been saying this since the pre-season. The centers are not good enough. Thompson is really not a 1C and we don't have legit 2C. Now Lindy is saying it in his way. Lindy is talking about Thompson when he says he needs players to give him more at the end of the shift. The center should normally be the first forward back. And yes, I was cautioned about the problems any new coach was going to have with our young Core group. They have a lot to learn and they are on a crash course. The challenge is going to be keeping the team up and mentally together until they get out of this funk.

Not true. He was playing poorly before the fight and the team was losing. He got frustrated and picked the wrong dance partner. Losing a fight is not his problem. Playing 2C minutes and PP minutes when he is a 3rd liner is his problem.
