4th line part time player....... Sounds like such a necessity.

They should keep him strictly because he's a nice guy

No because we had a team of softies that Darcy built . Hopefully Tim builds a team with backbone .

It was a stupid way to build a team. The league moved on. Hiring a bodyguard with no skill to protect a bunch of value priced talent with no heart was an exercise in futility. The staged wwe fights are getting more infrequent. Murray gets this. The sabres wont be a team thats going to get rag dolled anymore. They are going to target bigger athletes. Look at murrays acquisitions since hes been here. Deslauriers, mitchell, carrier, fasching, and conacher. Hes not going for the broadstreet bullies, hes building a team to make a playoff run in a few years.

Conacher's a midget, but point taken.

People that think this team is going to move up for another first round pick are going to be sorely disappointed.

While I'm not sure Conacher or Mitchell will be here when we make the playoffs I agree 100% with the premise

Nobody like someone who sucks at their job.
- dadeadhead

Unless said job is a prostitute, in which case sucking at the job is much appreciated.

Edit: Should have known someone else would beat me to this.

This is where the st louis pick this year would have helped. Were kinda stuck. We have the second overall and then nothing til 31. Seems like you would have to move erhoff to a playoff team for their first, and then use that pick with a couple seconds to move up to the 10-12 spot. It gets more difficult we have to make multiple deals.

is this way off?? i could see a sabre fan not wanting to give up two roster players, but i didnt think it was an outlandish deal for the 3rd and a good pick next year.



and myers is not worth close to hall at present

Myers is not Hall. However both players IMO are game changers

When Myers is playing well, which he did for the meat of the season he's often a difference maker. Problem is consistency and health.

I don't know. I am huge on keeping Myers but Murray might love Ekblad
