bob_sauve28 Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Wow, I was really impressed with the defense as a whole and Regehr in particular. The puck went in and the puck came out. I love that Myers has a guy like that to learn from and shoulder the burden now. Smart with the puck, not flashy but makes great decesions and gets the team heading in the offensive direction with a quick pass. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 All the offseason upgrades had meaningful games in Europe. If you are the Sabres brass, you have to be pleased, early... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been on my wish list for a long time. A few seasons ago I remember proposing a trade of Roy to Calgary for Regehr. It has been a long time since the Sabres have had a blue-liner that brings as much to the rink game in and game out as Regehr does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabres Fan in NS Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 All the offseason upgrades had meaningful games in Europe. If you are the Sabres brass, you have to be pleased, early... I think you are right about this ... More importantly, the fans (which I would include the Sabres brass as fans, more than anything else) have to be pleased. This team certianly appears to be the real deal. The whole attitude has changed. It started when Mr. Pegula took control and has just kept going. That is the biggest change (IMO)that has me very excited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally buy tickets to one or two games a year but talked my wife into buying our first mini pack. I somehow think that now I've talked her into it once, there's no looking back....

donteatyellowsnow Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Has Regehr had any comments about the Sabres as a team and/or how he likes his new team and the Buffalo area yet? Just curious as to his thoughts so far cause I know he really liked the Calgary area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grinder Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Regehr is a true professional. He has been on my wish list for a long time. A few seasons ago I remember proposing a trade of Roy to Calgary for Regehr. It has been a long time since the Sabres have had a blue-liner that brings as much to the rink game in and game out as Regehr does. My thoughts exactly. Have wanted to see him in a Sabres uniform for years. He will have the greatest impact of all the new additions, both on and off the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Amerk Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 There's little to no flash in his game, but he is extremely effective at what he does. As a previous poster said - the puck comes in, and goes right back out. Ehrhoff has been equally as impressive. It's a great time to be a young defenseman in Buffalo. Myers, Weber, Grags, and Sekera will pick up so much from RegEhrhoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SabresMojo Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Didnt catch the Saturday game, but the game on Friday, I did see. I do agree, the defense as a whole was great! Smooth clears, very little playful clears. Im stoked! Gonna get my tickets for the pilage in Raleigh in January! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warriorspikes51 Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 hes a beast. Looking forward to seeing him take out anyone who comes near Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RazielSabre Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Getting him was a good move. It seems to be paying off so far and I really hope it continues to pay off for Myers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X. Benedict Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 I love what Robyn Regehr does away from the puck carrier. He clears people out so Miller has a clear look at shots, and has them tied up for rebounds. Forwards that want to camp in Miller's kitchen will have to pay the price.

Watching on TV makes it hard to watch him away from the puck. But, whenever you do see him, he always seems to be moving. That 3 or 2 on 1 that he broke up against Anaheim was textbook.

I also saw him going down to block shots and shooting lanes. That's not something I've seen consistently from the D since one Jay McKee. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaLaLaFontaine Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 Regehr was a big impact for the defense of Buffalo in the first to games. I liked very much what i saw from him. If you see him on ice you have a good feeling even when the oponent has the puck. Great trade, i hope he has a lot of strong games left in his tank.
