He'll matter. You will see that quickly.
- BuffaloHardHat


He'll be the 1st goon to matter in 2 decades then.

To be honest, he's on the team so I hope he does make a difference, I'm just not holding my breath. He hasn't really mattered for his previous teams, but in his defense, neither has any other goon

I wasn't alive for any of those cups. I'm proud of the history of my team, but I'm not going to circlejerk over it.

As it should be. No fan should ever brag about a teams accomplishments that occurred before they were born. If you couldn't celebrate it, act like it didn't happen in most circumstances. Yes, they are a part of the history of the club, but you cannot brag if you didn't witness it.

The only place he's going to matter is in Pegula's checkbook. Period.
- HonkFortheGoose

If people cannot see why Scott is around that's just foolish whether you like him or not that's another story, he's here to make sure nothing happens like it did in Boston that night, that was embarassing to see how we reacted to that situation and the sabres realized that which is why Scott was brought in.

No poop? You dont say?

Did you figure that all out by your itty bitty self ?

- BuffaloHardHat

Again. Your talking about him playing in quite a few games. Not many teams have those kinda guys anymore. Anyhow GL. He can punch face really well. He just isnt gonna help you against the B's

either way, I think it's safe to say Miller has no legit excuses for this upcoming season

he plays every division game
- homiedclown


I don't see them needing him to suit up against Montreal. Or even Ottawa. The rest of the team can handle anyone on those two squads.

For a mere 600k all of Terrys larger investments on the team will be protected!

as much as there have been some great playoff games this weekend, I can't wait until hockey starts next week.

Just got a text from a buddy getting tickets for Cap/Sabres on the 27th. Maybe I can meet up with KF.

I can see why he's around. It's a boost to the club mentally. He's a security blanket. He makes them feel like they don't have to be worried about being pushed around.


That being said, his on ice play is not going to be anything to really even discuss because he'll get about 2 mins of ice when he does dress and I don't think it will be more than 10 games.

Shawn Thornton and Milan Lucic could but he wouldn't because he likes to go after smaller players!

bringing him and Ott to the team could set a new tone for the division if he played every game though

Well then I guess Scott already has made a difference.

No more excuses for Ryan Miller (or, more importantly, Lindy & Darcy) works for me

Ottawa possibly. Depends on their lineup. They have a few guys that could be an issue but generally haven't been. Other than Neil. And I think Ott could handle that.

Ryan Miller disagrees.

No rivalry, Miller just can't win games against them.
