5th in the league in shots against. Brodeur's swiss cheese play makes our defense looks bad, not the actual defending.

24th in Goals For... the number will be 28th or 29th by the end of the season. Rags look awful in that sector this year. Other teams low on the chart should find their offense... right Sabres? Flyers?

No
Sabres will be BAD this year.
We need this year to be awful to get rid of our idiotic GM, and get the 1st overall.

I doubt it man!
There ain't no prayer in this world to save this team!!
I actually feel bad for Miller.
I hope they trade him to a good team to win a cup.

Are you guys that high on Enroth? I haven't watched him enough to know.

To be honest, Enroth has shown flashes of greatness, albeit small sample size!
I am not totally sold on Enroth.

The defense had been pretty bad early on. The goalies had to face a ridculous amount of odd man rushes and break aways. Number of shots doesn't always tell the full story. Yeah he was terrible in his last start, but before that the D left him out to dry on a number of occasions.

You're so nice. Bless your soul for being the first Sabres fan I've seen to turn the other cheek at the sight of trolling. Never change, Sabresfan88, never change...

We should acquire Kyle Palmieri in some alternate universe where that would make sense. It would be awesome to have a player from northern NJ on the team.

He played for the NJ Devils Youth National Midget team waaaay back in the day. I'd buy the poop out of that jersey. #VivaPalmieri

I don't get why we couldn't have made a deal for Ryan other then I think the ownership change hadn't been made at that point in time. I honestly don't see the good in a valuable asset not playing when he should be and if for some stupid reason he isn't which seems to be the case we should be exploring moving him for a piece that can help and contribute to the roster right now and for a while.

We don't really have the pieces to make a move for a player like Ryan

Larsson is a very good starting point... Like I said if he isn't going to develope under Pete or get a real chance then we need to move him while his value his still high to get a valuable asset back that can contribute under Pete since it doesn't appear he is going anywhere.

Exactly it's not that I don't want Larsson. I want him playing every game and getting 18-20 minutes a night but if that isn't going to happen we need to move him for someone that has similar potential that Pete will play.

I'm not so sure his value is that high right now. If they want to move Larsson then he needs to be in the lineup to "showcase" him. His value goes lower and lower with each game he sits in the stands.
And why couldn't we have packaged Urbom with someone else for Ryan?

I don't think Larsson's value has dropped that much. He is 20 years old with a ton of potential and teams pay for potential alone a lot of the time. You don't think any teams are thinking boy we could give this kid a real shot and he will be a stud. He would fetch a good return especially if he is packaged with anything else. Urbom doesn't have much more to show he is a reliable 5-6 D who might be able to slip into the top 4.

With who? Unless you wanted to part with Henrique it wasn't going to happen.

I don't care what anyone says I would trade Larsson straight up for Tom Wilson. I wish Matteau had half the heart of this kid !

Schneider can't handle the pressure of being the starter... Hopefully Brodeur is ready to save the team when Schneider falters.

Why ? the kid has the best chance to be Lucic out of any of the young pf's in the league. I agree that I would want something more but I have a soft spot for the type of player his is

Why can't he? or do you mean he can't handle the pressure of being a starter when there is a circus going on between him and the other goalie? You are probably the only Canucks fan to come in here and not say he will be a future Vezina winner.
