Ellis is a scrub and does nothing at all for this team.
- SABRES 89



You just described half the players on this team.

I'm not sure why Ellis deserves the hatred.

As for the kids who may "deserve" the call up before Ellis? Let them marinate in the minors where they belong for now.

Detroit's model works. Edmonton's doesn't.

I have no problem with them calling Ellis up in place of Armia, Grigs, Varone, Larsson, Schaller, etc. for now.

I have never hated watching a player more than Matt Ellis

He's Kaleta to me

This kills two birds w one stone.

Lethal

EDIT: does this mean Kaleta is better than Ellis? Or they are equal?

I'm 43. But he's been being groomed to play at this level for a while now, at least.

Not to mention leaving home at a young age to live in North America should make you grow up fast.

Being on time should be the last thing this cat has to think about, at this point. However, sh!t happens and travel schedules get (frank)ed up. So maybe some are being too hard on him? Rules are rules, though, and the team was right to suspend him.

- grand-magus

I have to think it is just flights being delayed. It was a young kid mistake. I think his agent or agents assistant should be helping him on this stuff (if I am ignorant about an agents role feel free to let me know).

And yes rules are rules I am glad they did it.

They both are not good. But I think what is better for the future is them being here so the young guys can mature in the ahl

TJ Brennan has been all over the ice.
Varone causes a penalty shot. He was hooked on a breakaway. Varone screws the penalty shot.(stopped)

Thescore.com says he was in the Dominican and his flight back was overbooked so he got bumped. Agent said they tried "everything" to get him back on time.
