He's going to the Flyers you didn't know? just like everyone else is and still can't win a cup. That's ok we can score on Luongo so no big deal. - SABRES 89
Oh yes I understand he has no choice but he has let management know he will retire if they trade him so that kind is a deal breaker if you know what I mean.
Just passing along info that has been passed to me. - BuffaloHardHat
I think faceoffs are a HUGE part of the game
When u lose a draw u have to chase the puck around to get it back instead of dictating play... That expends a lot more energy... And in a season w so many games in such a short period, that will come into play
And to your point about the penalties,
You committ a lot more penalties when u don't have the puck as opposed to when u do...
Generally, teams that are really good at faceoffs are pretty successful
It's not the only factor of course, but an important one - jdfitz77

I'm not going to say it's never happened, but I can't think of anyone off the top of my head that got traded midseason and just retired instead of reporting where they were supposed to go. I think it's a pretty poopty thing to do in general. It's part of the game. If you don't like that, then you shouldn't be playing in the first place.
Any idea what the plan is with Brennan?
It doesn't make sense to me for him to be sitting in the press box nightly
I feel they should either give him a shot,
Or trade him now when his value is likely at its peak

I'm curious as to what they do when Gerbe and McCormick come back. You can waive/send down Ellis for one but what happens for the other one?
I bet the send Grigo back to JR if he doesnt turn some heads on Thurs/Fri.....or waive McCormick. I hope they dont do either, just my hunch.
