He was on our top pairing for a while, pretty underrated by fans - Rally_Shots
He was Sekera before Sekera was Sekera |

You know what though? Chances of him coming to Buffalo are zero, but perhaps coming to a team without a couple bone heads backing him up would allow him to actually play hockey. He is a good hockey player. - grand-magus
Good Thing . He is worse than Kaleta ever was for cheap crap. Just gets away with being a bonehead because he is a Bruin.I don't care how good he is . I don't see Sabre fans rolling out the welcome mat . Especially since he has made a point of bashing our city.

I cant agree with that. Kaleta has boarded players head first, head butted guys, done cheap stuff after the whistle, charged players with high hits to the head.
My only complaint is when someone does the same thing to Kaleta they are never called. He's been on the receiving end of a lot of cheap shots |

I would say the amount of scummy things done by Marchand are on par with Kaleta...the slew foot, the clipping, the boarding, not to mention the flopping
Marchand has gone for more players knees than anyone else I can remember |

You should watch some for footage on Marchand . No one disputing Kaleta could be a real tool . Marchand can be be just a big a tool . But he is a Bruin so I guess it is alright. I swear Jacobs has to have something on Bettman. |

Scummy yes, cheap shots with the potential to seriously hurt someone I'd say no.
Ott did a lot of the same things Marchand did. I wouldn't call Ott as bad as Kaleta |

Seriously??? The intentional elbow to the back of Umberger's head? Trying to take out Emelin's knee? The slew foot on Niskanen? |

Kaleta could have killed Jack Johnson, could have ended Brad Richards career (even though it was slowly dying on it's own) He gave the Flyers player a concussion (forgot his name) and was suspended.
Kaleta was a reckless player. |

He was a solid 3rd-4th guy though for a while. - sbroads24
Could log a ton of mins
Hit
Blocked Shots

Kaleta was a reckless player but he doesn't intentionally go after players knees time and time again.
I am really surprised by you here |

He chose to go after players heads instead.
He's been suspended for hits to the head, boarding 2x, and head butting
In fact he was caught head butting 3 times in 2 years |

Hits to the head are gonna happen no matter what (not defending the hits though they are bad especially the head butts) but to go low and go after a knee you do that on purpose you don't accidentally go low.
Now Kaleta has crossed the line and crossed the line a bunch but I don't think he is intentionally going for a "kill" shot every instance he was suspended. Marchand knows full well what he is doing going low. |

Not to start a big argument or anything, but you are giving Kaleta the benefit of the doubt while claiming to know what Marchand's intentions were.
IMO, they are both cheap, Kaleta as just been caught doing worse, and is less talented. I used to absolutely love Kaleta. He just hasn't been effective lately |

Sometimes you really dwell on hating Sabre players and it blinds you to what is going on outside the Buffalo franchise . Fine you hate Scott and Kaleta . In a perfect world they would not be Sabres . Got news for you it is not a perfect world . Sometimes if you can't beat them - join them . Kaleta plays with reckless abandon , no doubt . It causes him to do stupid things . While Marchand is a cold calculating little scumbag that knows exactly what he is doing and truly tries to cause serious injuries to opposing players . Also no doubt . we know how much you despise Scott Did you ever see Scott slew foot anyone like Thorton did to Brookes Orpik . Talk about reckless with intent to injure ! Ugly world in professional hockey but the Sabres are hardly the ugliest franchise out there. |

Ill break it down. Why are hits the head a focus? Cause they happen more often and cause serious injury. Why do they happen more? Because the head is usually in a position to be hit at least easier than to hit someone in the knee. Going low happens so infrequently because of a bunch of factors. You have to make a conscience effort to go low it stands out.
Going low like that you KNOW what you are doing. How do I know? It's what we as officials are taught to look for. Going after a knee is just as dangerous as a head shot when it comes to a players career. But even as a player I have hit players in the head unintentionally I have never gone after a players knees before.
Kaleta and Marchand are def in the same category as far as level or dirtiness in their game one just happens to score more |

And in response I would say that your blind love for Sabres players has made your bias abundantly clear
I literally posted how much I liked Kaleta until he started sucking at his job. |
