Tell us EVERYTHING that was said.

Not just what you wanted to hear.

He’s a defensive forward who’s slowing down and doesn’t provide much offense.

That’s the gist of it.

Most of our guys need a shooting accuracy coach .

defensive forward is a plus on this team. Even on the way out is still a plus

He's 32. Upside at this point means 12 goals with Buffalo instead of 10 with Calgary

Meh
The Sabres already have
Girgs
Larsson
Okposo
Asplud
And to an extent Erod

That can play that defense role while adding little offense.

Maybe.

That's 12 more than Erod would have scored, though.

It's maddening that people try to sing Girgensons and Larsson's praises over them.

It took those two almost 7 years to develop in shut-down 4th-liners.

They might fit in great on another team as a specific type of role-player but what Buffalo needs right now is NOT those two. It's letting younger guys like Asplund get experience and learn and seeing what you have in him.

Lazar has already shown he should be here on the 4th line. High energy player with some offensive upside.

Larsson and Girgs are the only ones i'm ok with . .

Yeah, and especially on the PP, can't improve the PP if you can't hit the net with your shot

I’d rather watch the young kids struggle and possibly get through it than a guy who is going to be 32 is not going to play any meaningful games for this team and will be gone at the end if the year.

This is not the forward this team needed.
