  1. I partially agree. For a team to have success, each player needs to play the system they're being asked to play. If Bogo is unwilling to adapt, then that's on him, not the coach. What was so unreasonable about what Bylsma asked him to do? He's an NHL level defenseman who should be able to adapt to different systems, assignments, etc..
  2. Yes, Scandella logged a -15 TRpm last season, which is worse than Kulikov (-10). Minny had a great team last year, they were a +49 as a team, and Scandella played about 30% of the minutes. You'd expect him to at least have a positive +/- but he was a -2 (actual +/-). Does he get tough matchups? I don't know, but that's not a good season for him considering Ryan Suter logged the toughest minutes and put up +12 TRpm. That tells me Scandella is weak defensively.
  3. OKST QB Mason Rudolph in action tonight on FS1. He's a guy that should be on the Bill's radar.... along with WR James Washington.
  4. On this roster he's a potential top pairing guy. On a contender is he's a 4th or 5th.
  5. Everybody loved Whaley's picks and aggressive moves in the draft and trades and whatnot... was a fresh of breath air from the previous regime. That didn't work out, so it goes back the other direction with a conservative GM who likes safe picks instead of rolling the dice and a disciplinarian for a head coach... 3 years from now they'll be gone and we'll be lauding the aggressive GM and loosey goosey players coach. The lesson here is that just because it's different doesn't mean it's better. Let's see where this new leadership group takes the team before anointing them the next Polian/Levy.
  6. 71 - Rodrigues 72 - Adam 73 - Baptiste 74 - McKee 75 - Ballard 76 - Peeders 77 - Sturgeon 78 - Smith-Tropp 79 - Ruben Brown 80 - Moulds
  7. UNAMERICAN! Buffalo should just move to Canadia.
  8. fantastic, all very very plausible IMO
  9. Buffalo est une équipe américaine et tout le monde dans le poste de diffusion est canadien. Non pas qu'il y ait quelque chose de mal à cela, mais vous pensez que le public cible serait pris en considération lors de la sélection de ces gars.
  10. I don't think anybody is making assumptions about his character based on his accent. I like Marty, don't know him personally, but he seems like a nice guy. I enjoy his takes, he has some good insight, always has something to say... seems loose and easy going, probably was a great guy to have in the locker room and on the bench. That said, I'd rather listen to cats crying than have to hear him speak for 3 hours. Buffalo is an American team and everybody in the broadcast booth is Canadian. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but you'd think the target audience would be taken into consideration when picking these guys.
  11. oh God no...... that accent ugh, like nails on a chalkboard.
  12. His top end speed is above average, but he's slow out of the gate. And that get's him in trouble in the d-zone.
  13. I wouldn't consider it a complete rebuild just cuz they moved Watkins and Darby for picks and J. Matthews. It's not like an all out fire sale for picks. He bought the Bills in fall of 2014... so I wouldn't count that season... so two seasons, going on number three. His first order of business was to end the Toronto series.... thank God.
  14. 2019? lame
  15. 61 - Afinogenov 62 - E. Parker 63 - Ennis 64 - H. Jones 65 - Napier 66 - Lemieux 67 - Hull 68 - DeLamielleure 69 - Wolford 70 - Sestak
  16. KHL is a viable option this year because it means they're eligible for the Olympics. Athanasiou is considering it, Pastrnak should as well. Other remaining RFAs: Bennett Wennberg M. Foligno Zadorov Horvat Duclair
