I would agree, Stafford has been snake bitten, but so has Foligno. He has put himself in some good positions to score, but just isn't finishing. Well it is a four letter name beginning with R. :rolleyes:

I think you can throw (no pun intended) Fitzpatrick's name in there as well. And the way the Sabres are playing, anyone is fair game to be benched IMO. Even Pommers and Vanek have cooled off.

I'll admit Foligno has not been nearly the same as last year, but he will hit and drive to the net unlike Hecht. Even Gerbe will throw a hit now and then. But I see now reason for Hecht and his weak wrist shot to keep getting playing time over certain players.

RR coached Foligno almost the whole season last year, so I think he would know how he plays and what to say to him instead of benching him. I don't get the move when you have other guys like Hecht, Stafford, Gerbe who have been terrible all season. Still a dysfunctional organization. But I do agree with Scott playing seeing how porn stache Parros in on the Panthers.

Just like the Bills. Always win just enough games to screw them in draft position and miss out on the franchise QB. Of course they usually screw themselves with horrible drafting anyways. Go Sabres.

This team blows ass, i dont care who the coach is. Oh great here comes our 2 for 217 powerplay.

Ahh, I missed that. Should be interesting to hear this.

Mike Wilson is coming back?? That should toughen these guys up.

Pegs doesn't talk to the media. Gonna be hard to know what he thinks.

Deep, but a pretty short presser.

Why yes, yes it is. Brings a lot to this thread.

Nice, lol.

:P :thumbsup:

This coming from someone who has probably never even seen Roy play his first ten years in the league. Lol, classic. Stop with your idiotic replies and I'll stop with the bro....Bro!!!

It's a Ruff day to be a head coach in Buffalo.

That's what I did, I "championed" Roy. You are ridiculous bro. Roy played in the NHL for how many years and under how many great coaches? Rolston played for 0 years. I'll take Roy any day with his experience. Wake up.

Tomorrow night they play there.

One thing the players in Rochester have mentioned that bothers them is that Rolston switches up the lines too much. Does that sound familiar?

Yes he did.

Roy has been coaching in the juniors, which is a hell of a lot more like a professional coaching position than the under 18 USA developmental hockey team.

Let's bring in that as clown Mike Milbury. He coached the Amerks at one point. He would definitely toughen this team up and make them accountable, but would probably rest all the starters against Boston each game.

I seem to have misinterpreted myself. The hockey God quote was for the firing of Ruff. But Rolston replacing him is not anything special IMO. The guy had absolutely no professional coaching experience before Rochester hired him. And now he has a year and a half in the AHL and he is the answer? I don't think so. I woulda rather seen Patrick Roy brought in.

There is a hockey God after all. Ron Rolston has left Rochester and will be the Sabres new head coach. Not sure how I feel about this.

Yawnnn!! Typical Sabres ######!
