Carmel Corn Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 1 minute ago, Scottysabres said: I ignored nothing. The roster is equally as awful this year. IDK if I agree. The defense is better because of Dahlin, healthy BOGO (forget about tonight's game) and healthy McCabe. Pilut has shown promise as well. Forward-wise, how can you say that Skinner is not a factor vs. last year? Sam has played a better first half this season vs. last year. Larry is having a better year vs. last year. Sheary adds speed (not much point production though). There are either new players making an impact and returning players showing more than they did vs. a year ago. 1 Quote

Getting McDavid allows us to formulate building around him. Edmonton didn't do that, they tore down what was around him. Quote

You should look at last years D compared to this years... and say what you want about Hutton and Ullmark, but I raise you one Chad Johnson. and even at forward... we added numerous speed skill players (Skinner, Sheary, Mitts, Erod) when the only subtraction SHOULD have been kane... this years roster is significantly better than the disaster Botts put together last year... and people say ROR wanted out. I don’t doubt that... that’s on Botts too. Edited February 2, 2019 by jame 1 Quote

calti Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 Just now, SwampD said: Draisaitl disagrees. then the other players on the roster must be the worst in the league. EDM isnt even close to being a real .500 team given the phoney way they count things in this league Quote

Plug ROR back in and hire a competent head coach... and we’d be in a very solid place This is nothing more than conjecture. 5 minutes ago, jame said: Your ignoring how awful the roster was that year... it had Moulson, Seth’s Griffith, Matt Tennyson.... Chad ***** Johnson, Jordan Nolan... and the list goes on... literally 1/3 of the roster was non-NHLers... Yes... we didn’t win with EIchel/ROR core... when the core was surrounded by garbage and injuries exasperated the problems... So Pommers, Elie and Nelson are respectable upgrades?? The 10 game run seems to have clouded too many fans minds....A good unbiased look at this roster shows a lot of weaknesses. There’s a lot more to do. Quote

I don’t doubt that... that’s on Botts too. I respectfully disagree. Going on a 10 game, win it in OT or shootout majority of games run isn't exactly the proof we need that this team is still bottom 5 to 10, with such young studs as Eichel, Reinhart, Risto, Dahlin and great pick ups as Tage Thompson or how about those FA signings or those trades for upgrades? Jame, you and I both know this team isn't going anywhere, anytime soon, until serious changes are made, both on the roster as well as the coaching staff. I won't go in to the GM position yet. But there is definitely a larger problem than just the roster in Buffalo, you and I can both agree on that I assume. 1 Quote

Who knows what gets said privately within the org. but IMHO Housley has not been held accountable enough publicly. If they players love him, you would think they would respond to protect him. Right now, I have no idea how much the players feel because nobody in the press is asking them. It's professional sports, so it's high time the coach is held accountable publicly and let's see how the team reacts. 1 Quote
JustOutsideChicago Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) It sounds like the Hawks may look to unload Duncan Keith. Not sure if it would be a bad idea to get a veteran that has won some cups and brings leadership to the room. Would rather have him then Scandella Edited February 2, 2019 by JustOutsideChicago Quote
Wyldnwoody44 Posted February 2, 2019 Report Posted February 2, 2019 I think that's the last I spend on the sabres for the season (minus the SS meet up). Comletley unacceptable 2 Quote
