Agreed. It only makes sense to me, but I've always been a numbers guy.
Going to school for accounting now. I'd love to get a job up in Canada, but I hear it's tough coming from the U.S.

I work in LA-You would be much better off in the US Insurance industry. Canada is very socialized. MY Job in Canada would pay 50 to 60 US per year. In Usa I make 3x that or more.

Because he knows he's the man carrying the team and it had nothing to do with Lindy's messege.

Agreed.

And, in Grigo's case, the kid also needs to put on his hard hat and get to work. He has not impressed me at all with his effort.

I don't care who he's playing with. You've got to work hard and earn it.

You have to let Rolston do his thing and construct a winner.

I already said that. Hecht,Scott,gerbe,porter all playing and 25 sitting. Anyone we knows hockey sees 55 as a horrible player. He will avoid contact at all costs. Rolston,very bad start already
- Buffalo1000

Hechts not a horrible player but hes past his prime and should of retired.Im interested to see how Gerbe will play under a new coach and his line up.I think Gerbe s a bubble guy along with Stafford.

I hated the Hecht signing. But he's here for the next couple months. Cut him down to 10-11 minutes a game instead of 16 and he'll earn his keep.

Where do I get my stats? NHL dot com.

1 goal, 2 assists, -4, 2 hits, 36.7% on the dot.

Rolston just got here. Let him put on his hard hat and get to work.

Earn his keep. What does he do well?he can't take a check or give a check. He has absolutely no offensive value. So he would be a horrible 3 rd line or 4 th line guy. Jochen hechtwould not get a sniff on any good team in the nhl. You can't win with Hecht,gerbe,stafford,porter,McCormick,Ellis,Scott and even though I like kaleta, you have tooooooooo many guys that can't score. Do people realize if vanek wasn't having a career year,we might have one win.

Agree. He is what he is at this stage of his career.If it was Dacry who made that decission count one point against him in this new Sabre era.Id say 2 points if he made the call on the Russian being ready for this level as well.Any chance the Russians on the trading block ?

You dont need skilled guys on the fourth line and Kaleta can play on the third line,and pk so pick 4 of those guys to keep.Our problem is secondary scoring and a second line.

No,I don't want kaleta a gone,but you can't have two lines of Hecht,porter,Scott,kaleta,ott and gerbe,seriously. Then add foligno with one goal and stafford with one goal,guys that is and awful team

- Buffalo1000

Pominville grigorenko and vanek
Stafford hodgson and Ennis move to wing
Foligno Ott and kaleta
Gerbe porter and it can't be Hecht or Scott.
I believe and guy you throw with pommel and vanek will play well. You have to spread scoring. Grigorenko is key and you have to find out if he can play with those two,then you can have three lines potentially going. If Ennis falters at wing switch him and ott. Let foligno and kaleta open space for ennis

Agree.Id like to see Stafford traded,Hecht gone at the end of the year and Gerbe closely evaluated the next 5 to ten games.Leopolds done stick a fork in him at the end of the season or trade him.Myers Im open for trades as well.

Wow,that just shows you guys just babble on here. Sedin has more assist then all those guys have points combined. If we had guys who couldn't score that's one thing,then we have to be a great defensive team and we are not. Luongo goals against is 1.63 so you have no argument and it was pathetic attempt

Right. So take some minutes away and see if he can be that role player. He's proven that he isn't a top 6 guy anymore. He barely was before.

You can not make any point on this team right now. There is a new coach. A coach that could put guys into a position to have more success than under the last coach. Do you get it? Rolston could park Foligno in better positions, Stafford could find some motivation to score, or maybe those shots he's been getting will start going in. And what the hell does Luongo have to do with this scoring debate?
