Luke Schenn??? drafted before all of them where is he? Myers probably if you looked at the draft class figued he would take the longest to develope because of his size, absolutely nobody thought he would be that good as a rookie

Whoa whoa whoa whoa. You cannot, I repeat cannot count Maple Leaf draft picks as having any merit or weight compared to other teams.

but people could have anticipated he would be that good in his second season... what is the point of refering to his rookie season if it was his best he has had? i dont care what he was or even what he can be, i care about what he IS.

It can hurt when you only have a couple games to show you belong.

Sure move the young kid to an unnatural position after 2 games.No pressure there ? Not going to happen the coaches are smarter then that.

Luke Schenn at 3.6 mil per is great value compared to Myers at 5.5 mil

and in those couple games your linemates include Hecht and Matt FRICKIN Ellis

What he is is still young even in his third full season.Give him 10 games to get it together before we worry.

disagree. Schenn is a mess, Myers in his worst year is better than Schenn

And a head coach who says 25 is playing well and his defense is better than expected.

In an unrelated note, this guy who sits near me at work breathes super heavy. I mean like a man dying from a collapsed lung trying to carry a fridge up a flight of stairs while Monica Lewinsky is giving him the business. Its horrible.

i am not "worried" but i think we need to put his rookie season behind us. he needs to be better.

he was only noticeable about three times in last nights game.. once was when he forgot to carry the puck all the way out of the zone and followed it up with a limp wristed attempt at clearing the puck around the boards that had we been playing an NHL team would have lead to a scoring chacne

You can say the same for any Buffalo Sabre though... Bottom line is he has proven he can be a great player. Needs to get his head out of his ass and do it consistently

He's 18 and has all of 2 NHL games under his belt. I think I will cut him some slack.

yet Schenn has more even strength points in the NHL

oh my

Good statement. Guys on GR this morning brought up a good point though. Drew Doughty is from Myers draft class has won the cup. When you see Doughty do you think "oh this guy might need a few months to get it together". Or do you think he is going to slip up all night? No way. And Erik Carlson is a Norris Trophy winner and an all-star. Myers needs to get his poop together.

Drew Doughty didn't have a very good year last year. His game finally came around during the playoffs for them. Before that, he was very average and their fans were criticizing his play.

Don't get me wrong. I'm a big Myers supporter. But he gets big boy money now and big boy ice time. If this team is going somewhere he needs to be sharper.

I thought fans can't criticize players

I kid, I kid

his name is on the cup right below Satan though

I agree. I was simply pointing out that just because Doughty won a Cup last year does not mean that he's been so much better than Myers. Because he hasn't. Both have had their fair share of the roller coaster career so far. It's not exactly like Doughty single handedly won the Cup for LA last year.

and Rob Johnson is considered to have "won" a Super Bowl. What's your point?

Moving him to wing to play with Ennis and Stafford hurts him more than playing center between a combination of Ott/Kaleta/Hecht/Ellis....

take a couple seconds, or a minute to think about your logic there.

Any Leopold trade talk you might as well put the brakes on.

Leo has laready said he does not want to move.

If he is moved he has said he will just retire. He will not move to Calgary.

Sekera/Brennan and even Pysyk may be bait the Sabres would be dangling in any kind of trade scenario IMO.
