You're probably right

But you have to remember not every concussion has the same symptoms, and some come on later than "normal"

I've had a few in my day and each time my symptoms were different

But you would think they would have left him at home for at least the first game and had him meet up later if he was doing well.

either way they need to have some tough conversations about their medical staff..

Also don't forget you have an ultra competitive professional athlete who has worked like hell to return to his team after suffering this condition before, who knows that questions the doctors are going to ask, who might be trying like hell to stay with the team again, and who may very well be telling the teamm what he knows they need to hear rather than telling them the truth.

Oh man

They put him on a plane too and then had to send him back

Either their doctors are incompetent or his symptoms came on later than expected.

Neither option is good

- Stripes77



Sabres medical needs to take some responsibility for this. It was obvious he was ding in the fight.

It is what it is. Jbotts tried some moves to better the team that just did not work out. I will give him a pass mainly because I really do think he is trying, Housley I think is over his head..

There's only so much he can do with a limited prospect pool. No one is lining up to trade for Scandella, Larry, Girgs and Okposo. We need to make some smart FA pickups and trade for one above replacement level C or D. Falling to the Rags and Devils in the way that we did is simply embarrassing.

sad thing is we may not be out of the playoffs.. if the jack offs are forced to trade bob and panarin that opens one spot.. and there is still montreal in there who could easily go on a losing streak like we have. we do need to rattle off a few 3 to 5 game win streaks though to make it happen

If I'm looking at it right, the recapture penalty on Okposo would be $3, $3, $4 and $2. Not sure what LTIR would be. Maybe somebody knows.

They play with no passion or heart. They don't finish checks even when they have the opportunity to do so, too easy to play against. You don't have to be the most talent team out there to win but you absolutely have to work harder. We just don't do that.

I am certain that the organization knows this team is not nearly talented enough. Playoffs or not, they know what they need to do. I liked the analysis Stimson did on Botterill, and his conclusion was that he was doing a pretty decent job. A GM's work is never done, but I really hope an honest assessment is made with Housley this summer. The new NHL is all about Housley's coaching style, there should be no shortage of suitors who are willing to implement a similar style, while also playing to the strengths of the players on the team.

Million dollar question. Who's the person(s) who can draw that out of the players? And should they need a coach to do that?
