We have Derke Grant. Why would we need Pirri?

I was for signing him and Hudler.

I wanted to take a shot at Sam Gagner as well.

They sure would look good in this lineup right about now.

Fun fact: the Montreal Canadiens thread last night includes many posts worrying about the quality of that team in light of their lack of leadership, AHL quality depth players, inconsistent scoring, bad management, stupid trades, and beady eyed GM (ok I made that up). And they got one guy all pissed off at everyone else for their "sky is falling" attitudes.

5 wins in 16 games.

I saw this team regressing from last year, and the season is actually playing out even worse than I envisioned.

The injuries are tough, but we can see that GMTM has completely eroded the depth in this organization with his impulsive moves.

I don't see this team as even a .500 club with Eichel.

Our playoff drought might last as long as the Bills'.

Thank you Terry, Kim, Russ and GMTM.

- Losman


This team was on the upswing second half of last year, Eichel and ROR are the best forwards on the team and we're missing two of the top 4 dmen. Not a big fan of excuses but that's a pretty good one

Hes no good, overrated I hear.

I was also told the offense from the defense was not what we should be looking for.


Also, I was laughed at for wanting him

Any idea as to what they may have asked for in return for him when he was available?

Tim murray has ruined and already bad hockey team. We had a good amount of assets and he wasted them. The winnipeg trade was awful.not only are bogosian and kane very injury prone, kane will likely play for the attica sabres one day. To many people wanted myers out of here, kane was a cancer in winnipegs locker room. General managers have to stop looking at players potential, if teamamtes hate you,they wont go to battle with you. He should be fired for that trade.he gave away draft picks like they were 2 for 1 beers at bada bing.i know this as a fact, anaheim tried to shove fowler down our throat, he wouldnt budge.
Look at our roster even when jack comes back. Franson,gorges,bogosian(5 mill) ,nelson are bad nhl players. Gionta,moulson(he will never score even strength again) kane ( he couldnt score in a brothel with a million dollars,thats why he grabs women) grant and girgensons,bad hockey players.
Bylsma loves affair with gionta and gorges is sickening. Baptiste and carrier at least hustle and skate,they paly 8 minutes a game gionta 19 the other night,two shifts in three on three and a shootout where he didnt even record a shot. The coaching is horrible.
Terry pegula has no knowledge of running aports teams. The bills and sabres are a mess. Doug whaley has made horrible trades and signings. He does not know how to build a football team. The only thing that matters is qb and offensive line,then you build from there. Russ brandon has been with the bills 17 years,i think he has seen one playoff. The sabres president for two or three years ,he has seen 0. It stinks from the top down. You cant have the face of the franchises russ brandon who is woman hound as your leader. What does ralph wilsons grandaughter and janet snyder have in common. Pegula be careful,great day people

I am with you 100% on this... Both teams are still neck deep in a LOSING CULTURE. There is no REAL PLAN in place in either organization to try to win a championship. For God's sake they can't even make the damn playoffs..... The Pegula's need to clean house in both organizations and spend whatever it takes to bring in people who know what the hell they are doing..

Of course not. I think we have the least amount of contracts in the whole league. The youngins should all be in Roch, with guys like the ones listed above being on the team. But what do I know...

I stand by the post below






eichel
ror
kane
reinhart
okposo
ennis
girgens
gionta
moulson
larsson
foligno

if this team can't score goals, the gm and coach must go

there is no reason whatsoever that they are not in the top 15 for goals scored

Too much talent (and too many other train wrecks) for that to happen. People are getting way too upset about a 5 game stretch.
