Don't mind him. He's really not a bad guy.

I've given Kaleta credit about 5 times already this season, some people are F$$KIN classless and i'm starting to lose my patients on this blog with some. I smell a ban coming for me........................
- SABRES 89

What are you treating them for?

C'mon Garth and some of you Sabres fans on here. If the hit was deemed dirty or illegal (other than to warrant the 2 minute penalty) Brown would have been suspended. There is no conspiracy here, stop making it sound like one.

Good for Weber for sticking up for his teammates. Good game for both teams last night too. OT games are exciting, no matter who wins.

Never a problem with Prock so far . Hes like the Leafs step child fan.

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE JUST LET IT GO ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!


Do you think that there hasn't already been someone who's said the exact same thing in the previous 16 pages?

Eeek. I'm watching the Montreal/Ottawa game and Neil just about took a guys head off with the boards and the door to the bench. That's a dangerous hit.


It's amazing the lack of respect some of these guys have for one another.

You know what? 20 years ago, this dirty pest type player role didn't really exist. Ciccarelli and Claude Lemieux, that's about it. And both of those guys were very talented hockey players. Guys like Ruutu, Avery, Cooke, and yes, to an extent, Kaleta, who are full out common these days, that don't serve much more of a purpose other than instigating, that type of player didn't really exist 20 years ago.

The respect these guys have for each other is all but gone, in the NHL.

You guys need to read past the 10 pages (use your fingers AND toes )to see WTF is going on before you puke on your self by spewing this crap that .

I don't remember enough of it from 20 years ago to really say, but Kaleta and Cooke have both tried to change their game so that they aren't detrimental to the team. Both have good defensive skills. Cooke actually had a breakaway in a game I watched a few days ago. He didn't score, but he had an opportunity to. Kaleta is probably the Sabres best defensive forward. I hate when he's not in the lineup. The PK is so much different without him.

I noticed. But I usually only point out someone's spelling or grammar mistakes if they're being a jerk to me, and you were not. So I let it go.

I'm just saying, it's a new thing. 20 years ago, you were either an enforcer, or a player. Not in between, someone that would agitate until the other team would fight. And if you tried the kind of thing that guys like Matt Cooke do, you would get your face pounded in. It just seems way too tolerated these days. Maybe it's the instigator rule, I don't know. But it's true.

I think the instigator rule has caused more problems than it's helped. It needs to go.

yeah, and even he was a pretty damn good scorer. He wasn't out there for no other purpose than to agitate. Look at those point totals. Matt Cooke averages what, 30 points a season?

could be the inst. rule . They voted recently to keep it . Would help players be more accountable for stupid action on the ice .


We had Mat Barnaby back then

Never a problem with Prock so far . Hes like the Leafs step child fan.

Or maybe they should just start suspending the hell out of these guys. Or start punishing the teams too, when they do something stupid.

FOR CHRIST'S SAKE JUST LET IT GO ALREADY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry. I read the first 10 pages of Sabres fans crying, got sick of it, and responded.

Spewing what crap? The facts?

There is a reason I used the Caps lock. Notice how the whole post wasn't in caps lock? Hmmm.....interesting concept.


Now shoo.

I don't see any Leafs fans crying. Not sure who needs to let what go.

Facts have no place here. Or did you not know that??

Could help but they won't do it . So we have to endure the Rath of Garfs blogs as the feelings of the whole Sabres fan base .

so here we are .

Did I say there were Leafs fans crying? Nope. I certainly did not. But thanks for trying to put words in my mouth.
