I think it's the development. He has tremendous skill and with proper coaches and adjusting his game to the NHL he can be a top defenceman. But he has to be able to use his natural skills and not be coached to be something he's not. No way is he a bust.

Really? How do you see any relationship . The Bills didn't win on a clear penalty.

He really is. Hope he stays.

I would agree to an extent but off season moves on ice and coaching could give it a bump. Wins are only way to sustain that.

My sitting through an entire Sabres game has dwindled considerably. I did find after the coaching change the team to be much easier to watch.

Not surprised. Should anyone be? Maybe owners should take note.

What is this a movie review site?

What is it? Is that what it's marketed name is?

The very best suitor for Rhino is.............tah dah! Buffalo!!!!!

I'm not sure VO is nothing but a power play specialist. I'm doubtful about him as a first or second line regular player.

Not a fan but I guess he has experience. I'll go witn Donato over him for sure.

Well, I believe I've seen ownership represented on draft rooms in various sports. So that doesn't particularly bother me. Again Terry/Kim need to hire better managers. I've been a long time advocate for an experienced hockey executive to come in as head of hockey operations. Disappointed this hasn't been done.

Amen. Passionate fans? Or just immature jerks?

I don't want tax payers subsidizing tailgating.

Yes, being the owners is where the futility ultimately lies. Still you and PA are expressing personal opinions not evidence of specifics.

Thanks, you answered the question honestly.

Had a similar debate with the Sabres haven't we? Do you put all your guns on your first line or sp!it them into two. I tend to agree with your assessment. Don't just give your opponent one line to worry about.

Don't know but I'd love to find out.

I ask this with respect not accusing. Have you or are you in a position of management with a company? If you are or have been was this your experience?

You began by saying may or may not be true. I used the word evidence. My opinion is that many , like myself, are not happy with the state of the franchise and ultimately that falls on the owners. But some because of their displeasure with the owners take every negative speculation as gospel truth and have an agenda to make the owners look as bad as they can. Go back to my posts and you will see that my problem with the owners is their hiring. Specifically general managers. I have no idea or evidence beyond some posters speculations about the direct meddling they speculate that has gone on. This has come to the point of evil speculations on why management would even meet with ownership. How absurd! What business structure have they been in or seen where this communication is not normal?

PA as I've previously said I'm not happy with the Pegula ownership. They've been poor at hiring and maintaining good management under them. I don't see evidence of the meddling day to day in hockey ops. You and others seem to believe a conspiracy that I see no evidence of myself.

Hope you're wrong but it looks likely.

This.

I have nothing against BB but if our team is as young as I think it will be I don't think he's the best match. As I've stated before Granato seems a better match.

He's a special player that I fear we don't fully appreciate. I think if we trade him we'll regret it.
