It's more a damnation of
A) Sabres scouting
B) NHL drafting at age 18
I thisnk you statement should be adjsted to say, now that we know who he is, he is doing what people now think he is capable of.
Back in year 1 & 2, people didnt think of him as a 4th liner getting ~5 G's - IonSabres
I said he’d top out as a defensive 3C who would never have a 20 goal season in the NHL
I wanted to trade him for ROR right after he was drafted
All the “he could be our future captain” ppl roasted me pretty hard for those thoughts

fuhr let goals in from center ice
your point? - homiedclown
Just that he had a habit of letting in bad goals. I don't think he was that good. If he played for the Panthers his whole career, A) it wouldn't have lasted as long and B) if it did he'd have half the wins.

You mean the Blues team that went to the playoffs for like 25 straight years? And the Islanders weren't the Islanders we know today then either.
I'm sorry, a .905 goalie that played in the most restrictive time in modern NHL history doesn't get in my HOF. He may just because he hung around for so long though. That doesn't mean he should though.

I’m so going to enjoy when he is sent down....... so very much. - gordong
And you call me negative when I say the team is going to suck but you're hoping one of our only chances at a legit winger to get sent down and be happy
