don't you EVER compare ROR to Drury... ROR is MILES away from the player Drury was.

Yes I am absolutely defending Chris Drury. Darcy Franked that whole thing up. We had a deal in place with Drury and we did not fax over the contract... hell we could of had both Breier and Drury for 5 mil each. We would have been Cup contenders for years...

Love all this whole 5v5 stuff.

Last year, Sabers dead last in goals scored, dead last in 5v5 goals. But lets cherry pick whatever stat to make us feel better.

He’s a good player. Will fit in with the Blues nicely IMO.

Just expect long stretches of literally no 5 on 5 offense. It’s who he is

I realize that, but he was a WAY better player and leader then ROR will every be... And the Sabres puked all over that situation not Drury...

Briere wanted to be here, Drury did not. They wanted Drury not Briere. That's why they said no to Briere and that contract offer of 25 mill for 5 years was for Briere.

Seems fair. Bergie is a bit like that. Will score 3 in 3 games then nothing for 3 weeks.

Schenn got a nice bump when he came here on even strength, hoping for similar results.

BUT..... ROR will win a lot of faceoffs.


Just another jersey I have to add to the "No longer a Sabre pile". Only Zemgus is left.

Either way I blame Darcy for not keeping either player. Not the players...

So now that Myers, Nolan, Disco, Kane, Lenner and ROR are gone, we're gonna go all the way back to rehash effing Drury and Briere?

The guy that played 24 minutes a night and couldn't score 5 on 5 played a big part in that, no?
