Not that I'm happy about a guy being injured, but I am happy about the consequences--Ennis back at wing and Larsson in at C.

 

There's that.

With a $27 million dollar deal in hand, there's nothing "poor" about Ville. :rolleyes:

 

Come on. The guy wants to play hockey. That must really grate on the soul.

I'll play C for the Sabres pre-contract signing, oh wait.....on second thought post-contract signing......He's soul-less!!!

 

Get this guy healthy and buy him out!

Soulless? Have you been hanging around with Deluca and GoDD?

The Leino injury happened in the first period, RR said. Essentially played whole game with it.

 

Guy is snake bitten.

Ville Leino had a good preseason and a good few first shifts yesterday... that sucks.

 

Well, I didn't see any good shifts, or even any good plays at all, out of Leino yesterday, but I suppose I'll give him the benefit of the injury excuse for that game.

 

Overall this stinks. We still don't know whether Leino is any good -- and no light will be shed on this for -- who knows? Maybe a month or 2?

 

But I am looking forward to seeing Larsson -- and hopefully Foligno soon.

 

Anyone have any info on Foligno?

Some time next week for Foligno.

Think of me what you will, I'm unqualifiably happy.

Leino has added absolutely nothing since he was signed, and while that may or may not be any fault of his own, as opposed to other veterans on the roster - *cough* Stafford *cough* -, I don't see how him missing significant time changes anything, whatsoever.

I disagree, we need a veteran offensive player to step up and take charge on the power play, quarterback it. With all these rookies on the ice, that leaves only a limited number of candidates, Leino being one of the better of them. I mean, that power play was absolutely horrible, embarrassing, putrid even...

Really tough break. Will we ever get to see this guy do what he is capable of?

The only good thing is it means I will temporarily get my wish that Leino will never be on the ice at the same time as Ennis.

Oh, I agree, but Leino hasn't shown for five minutes since he came to Buffalo, that he's the player you're talking about.

 

So again, I see no difference whether he plays or not.

He put up points when he got back last year. We'll miss him IMO

 

This is so tough for us. Injured again after 1 period of play. How many games we get from him this year? 10?

 

After Pronger he is the best payed player out of a salary /game view.
