carpandean Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 He's been playing on lower lines, but will he at least get a grinder goal in the final two games or will he be stuck at 19? Yes, I'm bored waiting for the playoffs to start.
Canadian Sabre Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 No, I don't believe he will score this weekend. Kind of a pointless pick up if you ask me. I don't hate the guy or anything, I just don't feel like he's brought anything different to the team.

carpandean Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Posted April 9, 2010 No, I don't believe he will score this weekend. Kind of a pointless pick up if you ask me. I don't hate the guy or anything, I just don't feel like he's brought anything different to the team. I didn't mind the idea of the pick (big guy with a scoring touch, a physical edge and a history of stepping it up in the playoffs.) It just seems that they didn't really know enough about him. Does a guy who says "I'm best when I don't have to think; when I think, I get in trouble" (I'm paraphrasing) sound like someone who should be playing for Ruff? Hopefully, he'll get it figured out in the last couple of games and step it up again in the playoffs.
Pville29 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 i doubt that he'll even score in the playoffs and we gave mcarthur so we can make room for him. What a joke
carpandean Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Posted April 9, 2010 i doubt that he'll even score in the playoffs and we gave mcarthur so we can make room for him. What a joke It will probably end up being that MacArthur going opened up a spot for Ennis more than Torres. And that's no joke. ;)
Marvelo Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I like Torres grit and the potential of a streak scorer. They've got to get him off the digger line with Mair and Ellis though. Those two probably have 20-30 career goals between them. It's like putting the guy's feet in quicksand. I wouldn't mind seeing these two top lines for the playoffs... Pominville - Roy - Ennis Vanek - Connelly - Torres
Assquatch Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I'll channel Mike Schopp and ask "How could I possibly know that?" (shot at Schopp, not at the OP)
inkman Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 i doubt that he'll even score in the playoffs and we gave mcarthur so we can make room for him. What a joke I'm sure we'll be hearing about how the Sabres gave away the franchise for a nobody... :rolleyes:
spndnchz Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I'm sure we'll be hearing about how the Sabres gave away the franchise for a nobody... :rolleyes: I heard nobody doesn't like Sara Lee either.
Stoner Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I heard nobody doesn't like Sara Lee either. I always heard that as "Nobody does it like Sara Lee."
inkman Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I always heard that as "Nobody does it like Sara Lee." According to intotheattic.com (huge NSFW), nobody does do it like Sara Lee. :o
wonderbread Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 According to intotheattic.com (huge NSFW), nobody does do it like Sara Lee. :o Thanks for letting me know it is NSFW. I was about to look it up.

thesportsbuff Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 Personally, I can't WAIT to see Matt Ellis in a playoff game. I think he's our secret weapon.

PotentPowerPlay22 Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I'm sure we'll be hearing about how the Sabres gave away the franchise for a nobody... :rolleyes: The Sabres gave away a secound round draft choice for a nobody.
Kristian Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 i doubt that he'll even score in the playoffs and we gave mcarthur so we can make room for him. What a joke So we gave away a joke for another joke. Big deal. At least it means one less Sausage Grabbing Mary on the team.
jwcolour Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 The Sabres gave away a secound round draft choice for a nobody. To be fair the guy has put up a fair amount of assists for the amount of time hes played. In my opinion setting up a nice goal is just as big a part as depositing it in the net. The guy is also glued on that ###### line. I'd say give the guy a chance he's proven himself every place he's been. Also a 2nd round pick in the NHL isn't the same as the NFL. In the 05-06 Playoff run for the Oilers he was very good... hopefully he can find some of that.

I would think that Lindy would give Torres a chance on the top 2 lines in this weekends games to see what he has. Playing him with Mair and Ellis come playoff time is a waste of time. If all they wanted has another guy to bang on the 4th line, they could have called up McCormick and kept the 2nd round pick.
biodork Posted April 9, 2010 Report Posted April 9, 2010 I love lamp. Do you really love lamp, or are you just saying it because you saw the lamp?

The only reason i'm not sure it would make a difference is because Hecht has been so good up there on the wing.
Pville29 Posted April 10, 2010 Report Posted April 10, 2010 Well i can see not too many many people liked mcarthur well he did something torres still looking to do score for his new team
wjag Posted April 10, 2010 Report Posted April 10, 2010 Where is the choice for H E L L No.. Whiskey Oscar Alpha Foxtrot Delta Pappa
Hawerchuk Posted April 11, 2010 Report Posted April 11, 2010 aw man, he shoulda scored tonight! Nobody to blame but himself.
