If Bogosian gets traded the Sabres D goes back to being soft and generic again. He has skills, is physical, can skate. The only D the Sabres would have left with pizzaz and #1or 2 talent is Risto. I don't understand the wanting to run the guy out of town, but I didn't understand running Sekera out of town either or the infatuous love for Myers. D is a tough position for many to understand.

Bogosian is a defensive liability. We trade him and we have more cap space and ability to get a real solid 2nd pairing RHD and a top pairing LHD. He isn't that physical and he can't cover a forward to save his life. Not worth the terrible contract he has.

He's also an injured reserve liability.

Tough is the weirdest way to describe a guy that can't stay in the lineup

Don't know why everyone thinks he's trading Bogo.

He had a mysterious injury that screwed up a good part of last year, he was solid as he apparently healed and his contract is fine. If they trade him they will be looking for someone with muscle who can skate and shoot soon enough.

Part of his injury had directly to do with the firing of the strength and conditioning coach...

He's a fine 2nd pairing D man for 20 games a year. For 5 mil that's certainly not a bargain

You have to recuse yourself in this discussion, you are still stuck on THE TRADE

Because evidence is piling up to the fact.

He has one year before his stupid NMC kicks in. He's overrated and RHD market is drying up. Anything else?

His contract is not fine. It's awful. He's over paid and has a NMC that kicks in after this year and until 2020

He's overrated to you, he traded for him for a reason. Anything else ?

Fowler's contract situation is a tough one too. great value at 4 mil for 2 years but then you likely wind up overpaying to re-sign him once the deal is up.

People forget he was a healthy scratch in WPG the year we got him. He hasn't been very good in a while.

Don't know why that's expected to just suddenly change
