I would take Pommers over Kopitar, Datsyuk because he is declining and Nash because of pure laziness .

Possibly Giroux. I need to see Giroux put another season like last season before I am sold on him.

You do know Pominville is 30 and only broke the 70 pts mark twice .........and playing with a fairly good centerman in Roy .

Of course u would.

Your a proven biased homer fan. Which basically renders your opinion moot to an objective debate regarding anybody on the sabres.

We've established this

Funny I'd take Crosby, Malkin and Stamkos over Pommers. But I am biased huh ?

Roy is not a good centerman

You know how long we Buffalo fans have begged Darcy to unload Roy ? Too long!

Again, this doesnt make u any less of a homer.
It just gives u a modicum of rational thought. Yes, you're incredibly biased and giving us all some good entertainment here

What about Pominville would make you take him over Giroux other than the fact that he is older and has been in the league longer?

I think you're biased in your comparison of Pommer & Kopitar.

Kopitar:

- averages 10 more points than Pommer each year
- is 5 years younger
- had 20pts & was a +16 in their stanley cup run (proof of leadership/clutch qualities)

Fair enough (on most teams he would be playing on the first line) but it's just baffeling that you would pick Pomminville over the likes of Kopitar and Giroux.....

Kopitar is only 25 and has alot of good stats to show for it , same for Giroux (not elite yet but he makes guys around him better).

If you prefer leadership over skill ,then so be it, but leadership wont save you from losing hockey games 6-0 .

Your generation of disrespect gives me an ulcer quite frankly. I shudder when I think how lazy and how full of yourselves for knowing nothing your generation really is.
It's quite alarming. And I have 6 just like you from ages 26-13 but they have a lot more respect than most of your generation.

But even from a leadership perspective...

What has Pomminville done to prove he's a leader? He's invisible during the playoffs...and has never won anything of significance.

At least Kopitar showed up by potting 20pts while being +16 in last years dance.

so you compare pominville's points being down to him playing with roy, last season elias was top 10 in points playing with sykora and zubrus and sometimes clarkson, not exactly top players

and elias has been a leader for the devils, while he isnt elite he is still a very good player who has played at a high level consistently throughout his career

In your opinion.

You are the authority on foolish son?

Spare me, you dont even know the difference between and adj and noun.

Not being a homer, I'll take Pommers every day over Kopitar. Pommers is a leader as well a 30 goal scorer.

- BuffaloHardHat




This is absolutely foolish.

Look I think the simple argument here that everyone is passing over is that Giroux and Kopitar will likely be in the HOF , pretty sure no one will ever mention Pomminville in that same phrase.

I would take Pommers over Elias and I would laugh at someone asking me to swap the two.

Elias is a joke in my book. Sorry. Wouldnt want him.

That wouldn't do anything for Bryz, he lives in the universe.
