At least Clarkson *looks* like he means business in that mug-shot.

 

Leino looks like he just came off the set of a "Laurel & Hardy" movie :wallbash: :w00t:

I think I would just bench him for the rest of the season, even if it meant playing with 19 on any given night.

 

They can't buy him out if he's hurt, right? There is a HUGE risk in continuing to play him.

Ville logged 58 seconds of game time before departing after feeling "light headed".. Sheesh.. The gift that keeps on giving.

Multiple twits: he's not out on the ice today.

So it looks like he's back after dizziness/migraines/difficulty focusing....

I seriously wonder if he is dealing with depression issues.

I bet getting paid like 10 million plus dollars this off season will perk his spirits up.....

It seems to me, this may be the case, though of course we're no doctors, nor close friends. Still troubling to imagine.

Not everyone worships money...sometimes the poorest in spirit are the richest in wealth. I hope the guy is alright.

Sabres’ Ville Leino OK after ‘scary’ migraine

 

The odd ailment Ville Leino experienced last week was “a type of migraine,” the Sabres forward said today.

 

“Your eyes are on a delay and your mind or face or feelings come a little late,” Leino said after returning to practice inside the First Niagara Center.

I should have his affliction. Maybe I could pay my bills at least.

Sounds perceptive to me about the depression. A player in his situation has got to be very unhappy. He's got to be sorry he ever agreed to Pegula's offer.

Careful what you wish for.

 

Or, maybe it's bigger than hockey.

Yeah that's a comparable nightmare, but still..you have two amnesty buy-out's. You have to use one on Leino. Regardless of the comparison to another cluster f*** situation. He has no future here and needs to move on. I could see him going back to Philly cheap....or even Detroit.

I'll take that bet. I see your back to Philly/ Detroit cheap and I'll raise you a He's out of the league forever after the last game this year.

Auditing top buyout candidates

 

Those who have no hope

 

Ville Leino | F | Buffalo Sabres

This contract never should have been signed by Buffalo. Back in December, it was advocated the Sabres buy out the contract, and that is even more appropriate now.

This is the case despite Leino being moved up and down the lineup in an attempt to get him some chemistry (and some production as a result). That has included stints with Tyler Ennis and Steve Ott. Cody Hodgson and Ott. Matt D'Agostini and Ott. Ennis and Drew Stafford. Ott and Stafford. And Ott and Marcus Foligno. But nothing has worked, and zero goals in 53 games show things are getting worse, not better.

I was told by an insider (I won't say who to protect them) that I should not be surprised to see Leino stay for next season, and that there may be a few surprise moves (wouldn't tell me what yet). That's all I'm going to say on the matter but I didn't want a bunch of you to be uber shocked.
