It was a good read. A little too long and drawn out, but the point behind it is pretty accurate. In fact the same could be said about some people in Buffalo. The blue collar town wants blue collar athletes.

Give me skill, speed and sprinkle in the grit, not the other way around.

Probably the only play in his whole tenure where he went near the center of the ice

that's assuming Gorges will come back

has anyone heard if he is even skating?

- homiedclown


I think he was interviewed by WGR earlier this summer and he's back skating and feeling good. He really is a sound defenseman, but played on one leg last year. In saying that, history of NHL players coming back from microfracture surgery isn't all that great.

I know we've beaten this to death over the years but I completely disagree. He was 1 on 4 going down the ice because he completely ignored his linemates. Also, after having a little sucess after leaving here he was out of the league. He was a one-trick pony.

Peters just said that Franson is better than the Hoff?

yeah, put him with 2 guys that are slower then an anorexic at a buffet, makes perfect sense


he was fine in Atlanta, I watched him a lot that year
then he took the money and ran overseas


honestly, compare him to ennis, a lot of similarities

If we're just talking hockey ability (tossing out the history), I gotta think I'd prefer Hoff over Franson for 2 years.

Peters and Barnaby talk on air like they were actually relevant in the league at anytime, they were both 4th like hacks that would not even sniff the AHL now a days.

there were often times where the hoff was our worst and best defencemen at the same time.. worst because you could tell he did give a crap and the best because the rest of them just plain sucked

I was ok with Barnaby as a Sabre

prefect player for that team

he put up 300 points in the NHL so anytime Peters is mentioned at the same time, it's a big insult to Matt

barnaby is 69th on the all time sabres point list and he only played 317 games

Seems more likely than him joining the Sabres so far.

Max showed up when he wanted to or Lindy screwed him up, always liked Satan and IMO, I would have kept Macarthur

You should have stopped listening when you heard Peters voice.
