Not sure if you mean the sabres or he buds, but both teams have a couple top 5 picks. Sabres are going to be good, they just aren't as good as the Leafs yet.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Both teams still have pretty glaring defensive issues but the Sabres are worse this year than last year and it's just a terrible job by everyone involved

Eichel clearly better player. More points per game, complete player. Some of your leafs rookie heros that you have daydreams about in bed will be having sophomore slumps next year
- bluengold12

You're joking right?

Dude, Kadri ain't no female dog.. he's dropped them with Backes twice.
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Risto would destroy him and he knows it

Had to watch the Leafs feed. I haven't heard so much ass kissing since Crosby Oh and how much Jack sucks.
- Pope of Pucks

Yeah we had to endure the opposite, what a week ago?

U didn't answer the question
- jdfitz77

Thought I did. Let me try again.
Not having them ready is on him. So fire him now. If you wait till the end of the season it could it could be for any number or reasons. If you fire him now the players know there is consequences for not being ready to play.

The Leafs have more, higher picks than the Sabres and have for years. They should be better than the Sabres. Since the '04 lockout the Sabres have finished with more points than the Leafs 8 out of 11 times.

Edit: 8 out of 12. Forgot this year.

You're joking right?
- Arctic_AARDVARK

You're joking if you think Matthews is better than Eichel. Stats prove he's not. And you're oblivious if you think both of Marner and nylander match this years numbers

He meant just scoring goals,
So I didn't even wanna argue that part...

For me, it was the whole missing the playoffs thing
Ridiculous

Although

Matthews v Eichel is just a dumb & unnecessary comparison
- jdfitz77

inclined to agree.

You guys like Eichel, we like Matthews. Both are among the brightest young stars in the league. The rivalry will go on for years. We should probably just cheer for our respective teams and leave it at that.

But, yet, still produces less than Eichel... huh...
- sskkoo1

You guys crack me up..

How was ECHL on the dot tonight 1-12? Ya he had a good game tho (shooter McGavin voice)

Well, Detroit won, so at least it helps the tank.

He made Anderson look like a woman.

- Aetherial

With Jenerette? Yeah he's a homer but that's why what we love about him. He's never been anything but a Sabres fan.

Risto would destroy him and he knows it
- bluengold12

Martin would destroy Risto.. why would Kadri fight when he didn't have to?

Going back 11 years to prove a point.. that's adorable

- sskkoo1

I like the optimism.

Yeah. He starts a fight by calling risto a wussy. Then hides behind the ref. Then stands at the blue line while his teammates take blows. He started it! Biggest wussy in hockey and you guys know it. Even Crosby thinks he's a joke.
- Khmylev

Yeah that is saying something because Crosby never whines about anyone or anything.

Face it, you hate him because he is a Leaf. It is the same with guys all over the league. We all hate Marchand, Gallagher, etc.

But, yet, still produces less than Eichel... huh...
- sskkoo1

Eichel 112 points in 139 games 0.806 ppg
Mathews 67 points in 78 games 0.859 ppg

seems to me mathews produces more ppg

With Jenerette? Yeah he's a homer but that's why what we love about him. He's never been anything but a Sabres fan.
- Pope of Pucks

And he's still not nearly as bad as a lot of them.

You're high man.. I see some of that good Canadian weed is making it across the border

Arctic doesn't know the touch of a woman

Boston, earlier in the week, was the worst announcers I had ever heard.

Risto would destroy him and he knows it
- bluengold12

Based on what exactly?


Risto's tall, but he's a pretty skinny guy. He's had two NHL "fights" and I don't think he got a punh off in either one, they were just hugging matches.

- Arctic_AARDVARK

I'm just saying they've had a very long time to accumulate a lot of very high picks, they should be better and in the past 3 or 4 years, aside from last year they have been, but the Sabres also tanked for 2 years. The Leafs were just terrible.
