So I found out the real reason Lafontaine left. Has that been talked about or not?

Yes and how long ago since hes won the Vezina and the Silver is second place.What has he done lately for anyone ? You think this guy is the best goalie in the league ? Really. I don't think so.

Since hardware is all that counts, what does Rask have? A bronze medal and.....

No. And honestly, it doesn't really matter. Not to mention anything you say "is truth" is still just heresay.

I agree the EDM roster is a joke. Hall and Eberle are gonna want to be out of there asap. Outside of them they have zip.

David Perron would be our leading scorer, then they have two 1st overall picks in RNH and Yak, and Darnell Nurse who is a top prospect.

Cause he was not going to St. Louis??

Haha sorry Beezer couldnt help myself all in good fun

Idk two second last place finishes in 3 years and the other year they missed the playoffs and Buffalo had more points than them. It takes more than a few good players to win. Case in point Edmonton. Roy helped stabilize them and gave them an identity.

Agree with Roy being the final piece.

Winning a championship is all that counts not second place not most valuable player on a losing team.

Go ahead Beezer. Give us your thoughts.

I ask again, since you think Rask is better...what has he won? His "Stanley Cup" doesn't count because he played in not 1 game during the playoffs that year.

Facts have no place here!!!!! You know that better than anyone

Perron is meh - probably best not to compare him to our "scorers".

RNH is Timmy C 2.0 and Yak is living up to the Russian stereotype.

Nurse may be a good prospect but you won't notice him in that shambles of a defence.

sometimes thats the best compliment you can give a d man. Its what ive said about Zadorov in the times i've seen him play.

Weber/Ruhwedel you notice every game

Enlighten us , please.

Miller is top 5 in the league. Him on a real team just solidifys that but you are going to say he needed to be on a good team to win. Goaltending does not win games by themselves in this league anymore. Hell Miller had a .923% on this Buffalo roster all year. Even with his Buffalo save percentage he is top 5 in the league of goalies who played over 35 games
- Stripes77

Top 5 is not number one is it.I like Millers but hes not the best Ive ever seen nor is he the best playing now .Just my unprofessional opinon .

Who said he was #1?

Edit: I did....He will win the Vezina.

USA would not have been in Gold Medal game without Miller in 2010. Man your hate for Miller runs deep . Did he steal your girlfriend at some point ?

Agree on Yaks but maybe you should watch these guys play sometime.I mean other then just when we play them.Perrons been pretty good for them since they got him love his play myself.

I absolutely love some of the comments on here that say Pysyk is awful because he does nothing. And to think, most of us claim to know something about hockey.
