Trade Girgensons
Trade Pysyk

That wouldn't offend me but it certainly would make me angry.

If that's the case then they still need to find a few natural goal scorers.

I like Kane as a player. I think he's a very good top 6 player. But he isn't very creative.

I think Kane is overhyped, especially by this fanbase. He is an excellent athlete and can play a physical and fast game. He is definitely by all accounts a good or better top 6 winger. But he is not an elite talent. He looks to me like a volume scorer. He is quick to shoot, many times unnecessarily early, and due to the sheer volume of shots ends up scoring decent production.

My friend has a similar philosophy to online dating. He figures its a numbers game, go out with enough girls, and eventually one will let you get it in.

There is an opportunity cost for Kane shooting so often, many times there are higher percentage plays that could be made. Many of his shots are from bad angles. His teammates may tire of his "me first" attitude and grow to dislike him(seems to have happened once already) And his book has been written and goalies are now expecting this from him and are caught offgaurd less often.

Still, not all players are elite, and Kane is a good hockey player. He is worth having on your roster, just not for the price we paid for him. Not his fault, I don't blame him. I root for him to do well and would love to be surprised and proven wrong. But I would never have made that trade at that price.

those IT guys love their job

Hey gerbs how ya doing? Still in school?

Nope.

Domestic violence and sexual assault. Neither one of those things should ever be joked around about.

I so agree.

Risto is going to get a nice payday. He is developing into our #1.

This attitude on the Sabres blog is what I missed

Didn't think you'd be the type that would make jokes out of either of those.

Absolutely not.

Poor Pysyk. First he gets saddled with Colaiacovo on Tuesday and tonight he's stuck with Weber. Wonder what he did to deserve such treatment.

good for you man.

thanks man, i love it

He's babysitting tonight

I think that went off the post, Girgs missed there to shovel in the rebound.

Funny about may not being able to talk. Me and a buddy were having a good laugh about that the other day. With RJs age, ray and may, duff is our only hope. If he ever leaves and the sabres bring in another former enforcer a few years down the road the broadcast will be better understood by a 4 year old. Gibberish

I kind of feel like that's what's going on. May said during the post game on Tuesday that Pysyk can play well with anyone as his partner. Guess Bylsma feels that way too.

Damnit. A little too much cute from eichel, and away goes malkin with a great little pass there

that may have been caused by eichel...

Chad Johnson blows. I've said it before and I'll say it again.

Brad May can't talk.

He talks like a bad phone connection .

Yes, but if Johnson was able to actually control a rebound, he makes the initial save and instead of a goal it ends up just being a faceoff in our zone.
