Coho is exactly what was wrong the past past ten years under Darcy. Once he got paid, he became a micro-fraction of what he was. Aside from Pommer and Ennis, I can't think of any sabre that once they got a huge pay raise, they continued or took their game to another level.

One part lack of drive.
One part lack of heart.
One part lack of desire.

It's a young man's game and if you do not have speed or desire you will not excel. The biggest flaw in Darcy was deciding who had the drive to continue moving forward vs who was there for a paycheck.

Can Coho be salvaged? I do not know. It starts with linemates to mask his flaws. A speedy player like Ennis has to be on his line. A hard working point producer like (player we do not have) has to be on his line.

I doubt Coho will be in the NHL in 4 years.

Once he got paid, he got complacent, welcome to my Sabres nightmare.

Nice article. Glat Edmonton was mentioned a few times in the same sentence as "tank." Wish someone would go interview their front office to see what the problem is!
