“Oh hey, look. Canadian writers are piling on about Winnipeg being better than Atlanta. Again. ”

Gee, you’d almost think there was a reason everyone keeps saying this.

@gnrfan8804- seems like we pretty much agree except I believe we have to many small players!

Even the big guys we have are whimps!

I will admit I am a frustrated fan but I think Sabres need new leadership?

If I am wrong I will buy u a beer?

“Why didn’t the Sabres trade both Roy & Stafford two underacheiving players?”

And Canucks fans are asking why we didn’t trade Raymond instead of Hodgson. Would you ahve wanted Raymond and a pick instead? Your answer to that is the same answer to why we wouldn’t want Roy and Stafford. Both teams have to want what they’re getting back.

Granted, I would have taken Myers in a heartbeat, but I digress.

hey, buffalomafia….im a season ticket holder and you don’t speak for me. while I agree that Ruff is all coached out, how can you, or anybody in buff, be upset about the trades? he held out until he got a 1st rd pick for gaustad. whose to say he wont resign him july 1st?? he traded an unproven ahl player for a potential superstar. you have tickets? what has everyone been searching for all year watching this team. how many players have centered Vanek and Pommer? give hodgson a chance. he’s a playmaking center who had 33 points playing only 12 minutes a game on vancouvers 3rd line with NON skilled wingers. how are u not excited to see what he may be able to do with more minutes possibly centering the top line? I agree that stafford and roy are garbage, my hatred for them are equal to that of connolly and afino-trash-ov. but I’ve excepted the fact that you can’t move those two if NO ONE wants them. were stuck with them. and look ahead, darcy has 2 first round picks this year

I don’t get it?? Hasn’t Winnipeg proved in less then a year it is better then anything Atlanta has done in its entire existence? Im not a jets fan whatsoever but its great for the NHL and those players to be playing in front of a jam packed building every night with fans who actually care!

Nick Cotsonika is an idiot, howson should have started doing his job when he got it not years later when he knows he is going to be fired as soon as the season ends. Craig Patrick will be making this deal in the summer

Wanted! A real owner in Buffalo that knows the sport of hockey!

Why would you trade your only tough guy for another small player?

Fire Regere instead of hiding behind him!

We the season ticket holders are sick & tired of mediocrity year after year!

Why didn’t the Sabres trade both Roy & Stafford two underacheiving players?

How about 6’7″ Myers who couldn’t scare a first grader?

What about those other two underacheiving bums Regere signed in the off season?

I feel sorry for the under sized Kaleta for taking a beating cause the bigger players are Mary’s!
