True. But, I purposely left Kadri off my last comment because in all actuality we do have a player on our roster who produces at that exact same rate as Kadri--Matt Moulson. Both are .60 ppg for their career, and both are coming off some career bad seasons.

One was on a team in the midst of it's tank and the other was on a team that was supposed to be better than before. Career numbers are nice and all but Kadri this season is better than Moulson this season and it's not close. Not to mention one is 25 years old going to be 26 and the other is 32 going on 33.

Kadri's 'bad' season he scored 45 points, 2nd most in his career. Moulson scored 21.

As he should. I know I wouldn't show up for a job if I didn't actually have the job.

You have to think it's a defenseman that's getting moved. They have a lot of their "significant contract" forwards in NMC and NTCs.

Accepted, but there is not guarantee to what the future holds, and one of Moulson last two seasons was on a team that was also in the midst of a tank. But, I do think Kadri will be the better player after looking back on his career when he's 32. But, Moulson to his credit, has put up a 69 pts season in his career, and several other decent ones. Also, just because he has had a bad past couple of season on a historically bad hockey team, that doesn't mean he won't turning things around this season. He looked pretty good last night, and is said to have hit the gym pretty hard determined to have a come back.

Risto agrees...

Not trying to be a wiener but this is a bit of a cop out, can use this for everything. Yes, there is no guarantee that Kadri will be better than Moulson, Moulson is 1 year removed from having a 41 point season and he could return to that form. But that doesn't make them comparable today until it happens. I also wouldn't leave Kadri off their assets list when he was their top point scorer last year.

Risto agrees...

Risto wants to be on the ice with his team, can't fault him for that either. Neither one is right or wrong, I just know I wouldn't show up until I had a contract.

CINCINNATI (AP) — A suburban Cincinnati school district has closed schools after a woman reported being grabbed around the neck by a male dressed as a clown who she said made a threat against students.

Reading Community City School District officials referred to the threat in a Facebook posting announcing district schools would be closed Friday. School officials said they take all threats seriously and were concerned about the number of students who walk to school in the early morning.

People in other parts of Ohio and other states have reported scary or suspicious encounters with people dressed like clowns in recent weeks.

Police in the Cincinnati suburb of Colerain Township say they arrested a juvenile Thursday in connection with a clown threat there involving threatened harm to Colerain High School students.

Yeah the clown thing was funny for a while and now it's getting to the point where people are taking it too far.

Is this guy legit? This Fowler rumor just won't die...

But, do we have the space to add him?

I think it's gonna get worse with Halloween coming up.

Hmmmmm.....Murray behind schedule to meet with Schopp and Bulldog...

Tim Murray live on WGR now.

I'm glad the Bills finally stopped (frank)ing around with Sammy. Let him rest, hopefully that's enough. But history with football players with the same injury and surgery isn't great, Julio Jones needed a second surgery, and there was another guy in the past couple seasons who had the same thing. A good player, I just can't remember.

Sammy is a bust, the guy is always hurt... fantastic talent but it's no good if you can't play....

and now you can add another 8 games + to the list of games missed... + all the games he played in when he was hurt.

We now have the worst receivers in the NFL, nice job, GO Bills!


thank godd we have the Sabres

If they would've just let him heal last year after he hurt the foot during the season, he could've had the surgery then and had 8 months to recover instead of like 2 and a half.

If you want to say he's a bust because of the price, fine, but he's still a good player. He averages 1,000 yds a season for his career, and given the QBs he's had to throw him the ball, that's pretty damn good.

I see the china doll is out again and we signed another bum to replace him, it just keeps getting better.

yes that is what I'm saying, there is no denying the talent he has... but.... he's a good player but we needed more than good for the price paid and the place where he was drafted.
now you have a QB and how do you evaluate him... what does he have to throw too?? CRAP! this has been the bills theme song for WAY too long.... and there is NO sign they are going to get it right anytime soon.

I'm just glad the sabres are headed in the right direction...

Tyrod is a poor man's Micael Vick. Where 90% of his big plays are the result of broken plays.

Tyrod has better downfield accuracy, the only part of his throwing that really shines.

But Vick made the decision to throw or run much faster than Tyrod and was better for it.

F the Buffalo football team ...
