Weber is the issue tonight. They happen to be paired together, so Myers has a bad +/- rating too

Myers value is going to plummet sooner rather than later - needs to be traded now while people still remember who he was

Only hope for Stafford is that he scores 10 goals and we can trade him for a pick at the deadline

An ice pick? Stafford has negative trade value

His value is at an all time low. Nobody is going to trade for him with the contract he has unless he can turn it around a bit.

I think you're also being way too critical of him. Weber has been a train wreck tonight. Myers happens to be the unfortunate soul that's his partner tonight.

No, not even close. He's made 1 mistake this game, and is improving from last year. Like I said yesterday, his former potential to be a #1 D man looks gone, but saying he's a 4/5/6 is just wrong. No if, ands, or buts about it.
- LetsGoBuffalo75


i agree . A team that is losing will make everyone look bad .Vanek would be the scapegoat if it wasn't for his 2 goals .We have Stafford as it now. Hodge ? Rookies haven't done crap once the season started . Some good plays and thats about it . Beer girls have been performing better.

I am driving up to Buffalo for the Ducks-Sabres game on Nov-02.
I am seriously thinking about burning my Tyler Myers road jersey right in front of FNC!!!

I think it's safe to say Weber is really frustrated with his own performance tonight.

Someone will trade for Stafford right at the deadline if he shows any offense - when it comes down to only costing $800K-$1M - someone will take a flyer for a 5th rounder

That would be nice but not having a transfer agreement at all would be ideal.

Especially since the CHL is bigoted and has since put a ban on European goaltenders being drafted by CHL teams.

What do they need a transfer agreement for when they are turning away players?

- Ryan_Wilson


It's not bigoted, it's a Canadian development league that happens to allow a limited number of players from Europe to join. We haven't been developing goalies like we used to in Canada so a change had to be made. The goal of the league is now and always has been the development of North American (and probably more specifically Canadian) players. Other countries have their own leagues for that purpose. It's not the responsibility of the Canadian league to develop Europe's goalies for them.

Weber's the only one to get a punch in... So I guess he actually won a fight...?

What really bothers me is that people are genuinely surprised by this. Thought it was pretty obvious we were going to be really bad this year.

Myers has had alot of unfortunate souls paired with him the past couple years....maybe getting 60 cents on the dollar is better now than less than that later...

Sorry I think a lot of this is about coaching as well, I am sure some of these guys can be good and productive, but I think a lot of it lies in the system's and coaches in place, I honestly have no faith in Ron Rolston at all, the club needed a hardened coach who was prepared to come in and show some tough love to under-achieving highly paid scumbags, no send a 19 yo into the rafters like he is the major problem.

But if the plan of the club is go this path and get GOOD early draft picks I am fine with it, if on the other hand they thought they were going to be competitive this season that would SCARE me greatly.

I don't think many are surprised, just really saddened at the state of our once-dominant and likeable team.

To much pressure and Vanek, Miller and Myers. I understand about playing some kids but you can't have a full team of them. If it keeps going like this you have to wonder if a change doesn't happen, maybe bringing in a vet or two. Sad part of this is, Darcy said suffering and to him this part of that.
