It's no more annoying than hearing how untouchable Tyler Ennis is

OK so then don't come on a hockey blog??? i'm missing the point. This is a Sabres hockey blog.....um..............ah.......

I'm seeing both sides. And I agree with you, why come on a hockey blog, especially in late July.

As a rule, most people are here to vent or complain. If they were happy, they wouldn't be online telling strangers about it. They would move on to different things.

But, if you aren't happy and you have to get your frustration out somewhere, you turn to the internet. Blast away, because it's harmless and chances are you'll run into someone just as pissed off as you are.

I agree with you that the b!tching goes overboard at times but policing a hockey blog is just as obnoxious and adds to the sh!t storm

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry for screaming.

I wasn't signally you out. It was just a generalization. Point being is that there are a lot of different things that annot a lot of different people. You just have to accept that when you come on a site like this. Either accept it or come back when the conversation is changed. That's what I do. When the conversation gets annoying to me, I just log out

Right, but if we made some of the moves that everyone is looking for, we would get over that pretty quickly.

There is always something that needs to be fixed. It's human nature to point it out and if possible, be the first person to discover it and offer solutions. That's what I'm driving at. These boards are inherently negative because most of the posts (the serious ones) are about fixing or changing something. Fixing or changing implies that what you have isn't good, when all you really want to say is we can do better.

You should probably direct that at over half the blog, i'm not lookin to re invent the wheel. Once again this is a hockey blog what do you expect to hear on here? not everyone is going to agree and this blog is mostly about opinions.

Crap another blog

I'm not directing it at anyone specific. Just saying that most are here to fix something. It can come across as negativity and b!tching.

I agree with you guys to do so. I agree with LJ that it gets overwhelming at times.

Kinda. There isn't really much there, except that Semin got 1 million for 7 years...

Opening game at the Jets!

Can't wait to hear the New York fans booing Sanchez, after the Bills defense swarms Sanchez!

I like Buddy Nix, speaking of GM's (at least he talks like a football guy). Being bold and taking chances, ex Mario WillIams. Committing to the Bills! That just doesn't happen in Buffalo sports.

To me its not that he is untouchable. The position is.
D. Roy I hate to say this was our only real center.
Ennis has 25 at position got on a hot streak. Dont know if he can play it for 80
Coho did not look good last year. Played third line wing center came here and struggled. Who is the third line center Leino Matt Ellis Mccormick.
We cant trade a center we dont have any to trade.
My opinionion GRigs is a year away . May see Gergs in January.
Darcy has to find a nhl center.

He's not worth 7 mill

I can sense a Ryan or Kane blog from Garth since Kevin just posted a blog.

No, but they had the cap space and if it doesn't work out, he's gone at the end of the season. It's not like there are a lot of other options available at this point. You would think they could have gotten him cheaper, but it could work out. It's definitely a risk.

Carolina GM thought Semin worth 7. Its only for a year.

Darcy had to match offer sheet, after the Drury/Briere debacle! Again, how does this guy keep his job?
