Great point, no use sending the kid back if it wont help his development. It's similar to the situation the Bruins were in with Seguin, they chose to keep him with the big club. Even if Grigs spends time in the pressbox he is still around the team and practicing with them. Its good for him to be around the team and learning from the veterans and coaching staff.

True. I know Grigorenko hasn't lit up the score sheets yet, but Garth is right about him the defensive zone. Sending him to the Q is pointless. Let him practice with the NHLers and learn. Plus in Hodgson or Ennis go down, I want Grigo as his replacement. Go Sabres!

There is absolutely not an everlasting lover for Ruff. Schopp calls for his head consistanly. Bulldog will sometimes. Jerry Sullivan is an active contributor to WGr and he also calls for his head.

Trust me I'm not a huge WGR fan, but they do call for Ruff to be fired.

That's not true, Sullivan does 100% as he has done for 10 years with the Bills and Sabres, but I can remember even last season Bulldog and Schopp both using the phrase "the coach can only do so much" and "The Players are the ones on the ice" when people would question Ruff having the team ready to play

Holy crap, you hit the escarpment and it goes from clear to snowmageddon in 20 feet

They were saying Pegula should have fired Ruff by now on my drive up north.

Fun times. Speaking of which, good bday?

i like the show that schopp and bulldog put on. they bring up alot of good topics. i dont always agree with them but they back their arguments up well. the worst part is listening to the callers, more than half of them are brutal. if your gonna call up dont destroy your own argument!

yeah i dont know about ruff anymore. if we dont make it past the 1st round in the playoffs this season i dont think i would want him back. yes he's a good coach and all but it might be that time for a change.

It's not supposed to be like a Supreme Court appointment, but I'd prefer they do it at a time a solid candidate is available to replace him.

well the onus is on Darcy to decide whether the coach needs to go or the Core around the coach need to go, unfortunately he waited a year or 2 too long to decide that we are better off without Roy, Gaustad etc.

Oh I wouldn't wait for Darcy to make that decision on his own, no.

I bet you can't wait to close on your house.

4th period says that 4-5 teams want a D man, Nuks, Wild, Red Wings and Kings I believe.

The Kings just lost Greene. Possibly for the season. Back injury. They were already thin on the backend and managed to lose Hickey to waivers.

Driving guaranteed 45-minutes from where I'm staying most nights to where I want to go most nights - yeah, it'll be ok when that's over.

I already knew about Greene and Mitchell, I would not take picks for Leo I think he is worth a player.
