just like when ryan johansen was almost a bust ?
players just can turn it on when they find it

I agree i go to about 90% of the amerk home games and when he was with Armia the two showed something buffalo hasnt had in a long time..Patience. IMO the most important trait.. our possession numbers are awful. I love schaller but he's another north south guy. With armia gone for kane (honestly a great hockey trade for both sides) Grigo is our only pure offensive talent down there. Kids been all over the place, let him settle in and if he improves as much a last summer we may be impressed. Also the competition for those top 9 spots will be intense next year.
I see McCabe as a poor mans ryan mcdonagh, Great in both zones but keeps it simple and isn't flashy. Pysyk is another patience player that can control the temp and has an impressive transition game. 3-4 guy.
Conclusion: ROR is a great player but honestly with Zads and Risto up already our D depth isn't outstanding Pysyk and McCabe will be solid NHL guys and with the competition it's grigo spot to lose he got the talent .
