Bailey isn't ready and you really have to start to wonder on that one. Botterill wants to put his own stamp on this team, not as much as what the Pens did. We don't have that kind of talent yet.

Makes sense

And i do get what u mean
I’d just like to see these kids get a legit chance
Tough to tell what we have when they only play 8min on line4

For example with Bailey:
Played 3 games with ROR, scored 2 goals
Got dropped to the 4th line & then didn’t score
What did they expect would happen?

Somehow you manage to see the plays you don’t like, even at work?

I want to see good plays

I really do

botts wants speed


bailey, fasching do not offer that

Huh?
Bailey is pretty fast sir

I never understood bringing a kid up with talent and playing him 6 minutes a night

Fasching is a bum

I bet Gionta could beat him right now in a speed drill

7 million dollar shot

Gotta play the kids soon, we can't keep spending Botterill isn't gonna do it.

1 on 4 rarely works

puck bounced

Just to stick with Bailey...
if he gets an extended shot in the top9 next year & puts up 2 goals in 40 games...
well then, ok
Kid got a shot, but his scoring just didn’t translate to the NHL
It happens

But playing him on a line with Nolan & Josefson and expecting him to score is just ridiculous

Cam Ward has this teams number, always has.

- homiedclown

Gionta could beat a lot of guys in a speed drill

Bailey IS fast though
Not lightning fast, but well above average

Spot on

lazy play gus


got lucky

Gotta play the kids soon, we can't keep spending Botterill isn't gonna do it.
- SABRES 89

I guess from what he said on WGR earlier it sounds like some of the kids are gonna start getting a shot up here

Rodrigues is getting his chance
Playing in the top9 with decent wingers & on the PP
I just wanna see him in these situations for like 20-30 games, not 6 & then send him back down

Jameson is calling my name


have fun

Cam Ward has this teams number, always has.

Rumor out there saying he was the guy who gave our defense staff infections...

Sure
At this point, why the heck not?

I’m not saying these guys need to play with Jack or ROR
But let them play with some talent,
even if it’s each other
