Did he sleep with a teammates wife or something? All 30 teams said no, and Im guessing the reason isn't hockey related.

I never said he was better than Risto.

He is however light years better than the guy they "swapped" him for

You know I wasn't crazy about Myers and even this I will agree with.

On donning pads & taking shots from Gormley after placing the D on waivers, Roy said: "It's a business." Didn't ask if there were head shots

Do you ever talk hockey, or just make corny remarks?

Half of the posts are your nonsense.

Are they really trying to make a connection with him being put on waivers and him taking practice shots on Roy? How absurd

I think it was because they were at 50 contracts, and he was odd man out

by not being claimed, they are stuck at 50

look at their stats, myers 47 games with the sabres last year and bogo 23 this year. they are basically the same player except bogo at least hits. I just don't see why everyone is already up in arms about that trade. be patient.

Comparing LAST YEAR's roster to what Bogosian is playing with this year isn't a fair comparison either though.

Comparing the 2 players by points isn't fair - Bogosian isn't exactly a points guy, though I don't think he's done too well in a "keep the crease clear" way either.

didn't we all just finish complaining about how this team was doing no different than last year? did we forget that already?

think its time to step back from the ledge a little bit. we could be the flyers.

Oh boy. The Myers trade. Let's talk about that. Again.



P.S. If Lemiuex is so good and they expected to make the team last year why aren't they equally as surprised that he didn't make Winnipeg this year? Either Claude had some beef with Buffalo, the rumor that he wouldn't sign was just a parting shot by Buffalo after trading him, or he's equally upset with Winnipeg and we just haven't heard about it yet.

Not sure you understood my meaning - not to mention confusing me with anyone who had expectations for this season.

Last year's team was HORRIBLE. This year's team is bad but has better personnel, meaning Bogosian is playing with better Sabres than Myers was.

perfectly understood your meaning. but just because the roster is better doesn't mean they are immediately going to play better and therefore guys like bogosian should be putting up better numbers than myers did last year. anyways, not meant for an argument. I just think some of us sabres fans need to chill a bit and be patient.

I get that, but I'm saying it could have started from them. All I'm saying is it's a bit eh that it didn't come out until right after. Until then everyone was happy and as soon as he was traded it was "He hated us".

My guess was once they wouldnt sign, they quietly asked for a trade to avoid it going public. it was to the benefit of both sides to keep that under wraps until he was gone
