I guess Leo isnt on the ice with the team. Not saying it means anything but I am not sure what it means. He wasnt injured.

i haven't really been impressed with gerbe. he is a lot of go but not a lot of finish. he tries to be tough and that is not going to work for him. he might be alright on a team with a 3rd line of solid players but i just dont see a spot for him on this team.
- IndianaSabresFan


I don't think he's ever been given enough time for a good enough evaluation with skilled players. Most of his career he's been with crap for linemates.

2010-11


2011-12


28 point average the last 2 seasons, in 63 game average per season, playing mostly with the likes of Gaustad...

I'd like to see him with more skill and THEN evaluate.

However, his 2013 coaching record leaves a lot to be desired.

His record for the past three years leaves a lot to be desired. This isn't a new thing, it just reached a breaking point...finally.

Sabres Front office‏@SabresFront

Big news: Darcy offered Leopold + Adam + pick for O'Reilly #avs said no #sabres

put as much stock into it as you want...take it with a grain of salt

the offer seems legit though

Ron Rolston and the players have to find a way to get to 55-56 points in the next 31 games. Think about it. The need need to win 19-20 of their next 31 games

It need not be even close to making sense.

Just strange because he is not injured.
He is in street clothes in seats by the ice.
Perhaps Darcy does not want him to take a chance getting injured with a possible deal looming involving him?
Not sure why he would not be skating with his team mates.

oh thats neat id love to see the breakdown of my boy Mark Recchi in his career.

I disagree with you wanting him with better players. I do see hes played with Staff and Roy Roy and vanek Goose and pommer. SO id ask whod you want him to play with?
