To have it line up that well is really impressive, though. Two try iron men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabre fan Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Interesting to see the Laughs suddenly unable to win after al their big moves...they seem to be getting frustrated but that knee hit on Hyman by Vancouver's Elder was a nasty piece of work...meanwhile Wilson is at it again (no penalty) Edited April 19, 2021 by Sabre fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drnkirishone Posted April 19, 2021 Report Share Posted April 19, 2021 The Wilson hit wasn't great... But I also don't think it was all that bad. It looked to me like the player was either falling or ducking away from the hit (couldn't tell from the video). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Balls Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) As much as we all hate the Leafs, this is pretty funny. Never knew Marner was a Bills fan, although he grew up near Toronto, so I guess it makes sense. Edited April 20, 2021 by Claude Balls 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) The responses to this post about Bogosian being hurt from Maple Leafs players is a good reminder of how bad Sabre fan perceptions have been twisted. I spent a fair amount of energy defending Bogo when the entire fanbase ripped him apart here. He was never a bad player. He was a little reckless at times but I always got the impression the dude had ***** luck with health and when he was out there he was trying to make things happen.

Leafs goaltending is so unpredictable and their defense is pretty bad...I have no doubt they;d trade their defense for our defense straight up in a heartbeat. Our's has potential which theirs doesn't. They play the Peg tonight should be another big test for them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not/wasn't very good when healthy either. Oh and then after all those years of paying him his overpriced salary for nothing, he quits on the Sabres instead of earning his way back into the lineup like he should have.

Bogosian was beloved by his teammates is Buffalo as well. He can’t stay healthy. It’s not just luck, it’s chronic. When he played healthy in Buffalo he was ok to meh. At times when he was working his way back from injury he was pretty bad. Overall, brings some useful qualities but nothing impressive. That’s fine for a bottom pair guy making $1M or whatever he is making now. In Buffalo he was making $5M+ and was supposed to be a key top-4 guy. Instead we got a just ok guy who was almost never healthy and way overpaid. Fans were not impressed. Its like Okposo now. He can still play and fill a role. At $6M it’s a disaster, at $1M it would be fine. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciated his time here and wish he could’ve stuck around into this part of his career. He was vilified by fans and players remember that stuff.

I didn’t say it was his fault, but what do you want me to say? It wasn’t his fault but it still happened. It wasn’t his fault, but it still wasn’t good for the team. I hold no I’ll will against Bogosian. He is one of the few guys in the NHL from the north country and I’ve followed his career with some interest. And yet, his time with the Sabres was disappointing, that’s just the truth of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
