If he wanted to keep pommer, it would have been easy

let girgens, or lockport larry walk


clearly pommer is laying low in case the team has injuries and the team is in a position for the playoffs

what would he bring to a sabres playoff chase?

He's mr. October because he's good when he's fresh.

Only way I could see it is if Reinhart goes down. Pommer could give them a solid month with Eichel before he wears down

He's still got some of the better hands of anyone around here

Sure, but you're not gonna pay your mechanic to paint a family portrait.

He'd be here to score a few goals

I think the reason people like Harrington get caught up in it is because for all the problems the Sabres had last year, it's hard to say Pominville was one of them.

That said, someone had to go, and he was the easiest choice.

Rumor has it that the Yukon sucks and so does everyone who spawns from there.

This. Literally Pomminville and the coach are the only subtractions. And Pomminville wasn't even a problem.

That's rude to Yukonians, or Yukonites, idk.

It's just our new ten ply toy that's unintelligent that sucks, because he's not a different person. Like at all.

Time to move on from the core...including him. He's soft and when you watch hom close enough you see him put his linemates in tough position

Just say no to softness and Bob Ross-type artists

12-team PPR League:

RB1 D. Cook
RB 2 D. Freeman
WR 1 Hopkins
WR 2 Kupp
WR 3 C. Kirk
TE H. Henry
F1 J. Jacobs
F2. L. Murray

On my bench: Hockensen

I feel like I need to get Hockensen on here somehow, but don't quite feel so confident just replacing him for Henry straight up. Also, Jacobs and Murray both outscored Freeman. Dare I bench Freeman?

I started hock and feel like I lucked out a bit. I hope he continues to keep producing. It’s hard to trust a rookie tightend.

Pominville on the 4th line was useless. He only produced / gave an effort when he was on the Eichel line. [url]

Just noticed this on Sabres.com

Preseason games-

Pens games (penn state) - streamed online locally

Columbus - streamed online locally

Leaf home / home - msg (sportsnet broadcast)

Columbus - msg

Pens - msg. Pens broadcast.

It’s 2019 and still embarrassing the Sabres can’t get their own broadcast on msg for preseason games.

Again, if your biggest complaint is that an old veteran skilled player didn't score enough of his 16 goals from the fourth line, I really think we should have been a playoff team.

The point is he wasn't a problem last year. On a team whose real issues were secondary scoring, team defense, and goaltending, Pominville had the most goals by anyone not named Jack, Sam, or Jeff, was pretty average defensively, and didn't play goal. How he ends up being the only player off this roster is beyond me.

There is no organizational accountability for the players. Blaim Housley sure, but don't forget how many coaches these guys have gone through.

But yeah, Pominville doesn't hit people, so it's all on him.
