Matt Ellis to be Named Director of Player Development
inkman replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Where is this truck stop again? -
He played the prospects as much as you'd want a coach to. Borgen got top pairing minutes, Mitts got top line minutes. Bryson's minutes escalated as the season wore on. He definitely knew how to mix in the vets with the rookies to put a good product on the ice. It really makes you question the orgs direction getting rid of Chris Taylor.

A team trying to get better?

Yeah. People want sexy hires. This is about as sexy as Bea Arthur. -
What trade rumors?
-
I definitely am

Don't do this to yourself. Move on.

Well I was just referring to the use of "my source". Thanks the explanation tho.

Someone make me not want to tear my eyeballs out of my skull when I read this

@miles I also disliked Jim Kelly mostly because he sounded like a western Pennsylvania goober.

See 2000s for V. Sanderson reminded me of Holzinger. Speed to spare but never seemed to put it together in Buffalo.

2000's Goat head players: JP Dumont: slick goal scorer, fans wanted more but he was a good player Stu Barnes: gritty captain Chris Gratton: never lived up to his draft position, got us Danny Briere Doug Gilmour: hated Buffalo more than. Tom Brady Max Afinogenov: wonderful end to end rushes resulting with the puck trickling of into the corner with no scoring chance to show for it Curtis Brown: very solid 2 way player never really appreciated in Buffalo Eric Rasmussen: built like Tarzan, played like Jane Vaclav Varada: a personal favorite with a very non distinguished Sabres tenure Dimitri Kalinen: another one of the 06 injuries Rhett Warrener: got every ounce of ability out of him Hasek: aloof superstar who alienated coaches, teammates and generally wasn't liked by anyone that got to known him. Best known for choking out a fat reporter Tim Connolly: never stay healthy, what could have been Taylor Pyatt: along with TC, had the unfortunate circumstance of being acquired for Mike Peca Slava Kozlov: ugh, made Gilmour look like Fred Jackson Ales Kotalik: one timer and penalty shot savant, was more interested in going to da club than playing hockey Jochen Hecht: despised by fans as Lindy insisted on playing him at center most likely due to Danny Breire's non-existent defense Danny Breire: root of the famous 5x5 contract lore, slippery player who looked like he was 14 years old James Patrick: he was awesome in NHL 94 Marty Biron: good for a quote, just an above average goalie Mikka Noronnen: below average NHL goalie Andrew Peters: brought a new level of boring to NHL fighting Ryan Miller: Mr Softy, also famous for the Ryan Miller shutout which is allowing a cheap goal in the waning minutes of a given game Jason Botterill: ? Chris Drury: noted grump who hated everything not NYC Jason Pominville: hard to critique Thomas Vanek: not hard to critique Derek Roy: sausage grabber Brian Campbell: most famous for causing RJ Umberger brain damage Mike Grier: all D no O Henrik Tallinder: most noted for changing how we should pronounce his name a decade into his career Toni Lydman: see above Paul Gaustad: traded for a 1st round pick

I loved Mike Peca but let's review other prominant members of those teams: Derek Plante: notable wuss most remembered (by me) for getting cold cocked by Brad May during a scrum in front of the net Michael Peca: favorite Sabre player ever. Bad taste in mouth due to his unceremonious departure via trade Matt Barnaby: fan favorite but not a very good dude Miroslav Satan: extremely gifted goal scorer who was despised by many due to his style Alexei Zhitnik: underrated Dman most known for his penchant for delivering slap shots 10 feet wide of the net Jason Wooley: not much bad to say, scored historical goal in SCF Richard Smehlik: universally hated player by most fans Wayne Primeau: Not Keith Rob Ray: our lovable punching bag, if he hadn't learned the jersey gimmick, he may have lost every fight he participated in Jay McKee: shin pads That's the 90's players, I'll post about the 2000's players on my lunch

I know. My timing is impeccable.

Paid $25 for the MLB package on Amazon Prime. All my Red Sox games minus the stupid Yankees games on YES and current watching the BJs.

If I had a dollar When does the clock start. At the beginning of A or M?
-
I guess. I hated Hasek and most of the other players on the team. Ultimately, I remember them for failure.

I just don't get the sentiment. Was little Suzie big knockers giving BJs while Satan was sliding in empty netters. I don't understand the need to roll out those abominations.
