Why does bogo get this pass but not franson?

365

Not giving BoGo a pass, just waiting through this season/rebuild on the entire team.

On WGR this morning Matt Coller said the organization is not that high on Pysyk like the fans and media are and he doesn't know why. That he is the 2nd best dman and if he was Mark he'd ask for a trade.
- sippyd

He might be 2nd best by default.

I actually was wondering about Pysyk requesting a trade before. He's been messed with a good amount here

So what you are saying is Tim Murray hands out bad contracts?
- sbroads24

You know where TM was a year or so ago, right? Cap floor.......those are bad contracts.

Hopefully we can move some at trade deadline:
4
12
6 (contract isn't an issue, just FA)
26 will be very hard to move

Tim Murray's comments yesterday is another perfect example of him being an egotistical loose cannon.

His comment on how he believes Pysyk should play and how maybe Bylsma feels differently is so hypocritical.

Hey Tim, you didn't feel that strongly about Pysyk being in the lineup last season when you were trying to get Eichel did you?

The problem here is that Im not sure he sees enough ice time against tough competition to suggest that one has to do with the other.

I think Franson and McGinn get moved.

Yea, 2 more we can move!

88 is a solid 3rd line winger, not a #1 PP guy (hence our PP problem)

I actually had no problem with that. The logic of "not wanting to mess with a winning lineup" has always baffled me. Bylsma apparently did the same with Despres in pittsburgh.

It seems pretty clear to me that Bylsma was never Murray's guy.

I held back from responding to that. The dude played 16 minutes a game,oh my god stop acting like he's a Norris candidate

I think it's pretty screwed up to seemingly throw the coach under the bus in an interview. Do they not talk themselves?

Actually my guess is that talk led to him being thrown under the bus

I think Franson and McGinn get moved.
- CaptainRivet

I can see both getting moved. Franson for a 3rd and mcginn for a 2nd unless murray is looking at prospects. Wouldnt be shocked if ennis got moved, i dont think murray front loaded that contract just to get to the floor. I would put girgensons and pysyk into the- i hope not category.

Its not a good look. It doesnt surprise me though, i dont think murray can be happy about the vets getting ice time that would be better used on the young guys.

So who's ready to join the tank wagon

Per TBN:

http://sabres.buffalonews...16/girgensons-day-to-day/

Pysyk in tonight. Varone in for Girgensons. Kane fine after taking late slash to the knee last night.

think we can pull of a trade and then return out of mcginn like he-who-must-not-be-named---named-moulson?

And no one is ever ready for a tank wagon, but none shall be ridden along this dusty trail. We are onto the building up not crashing down phase. The Ducks though...they may very well need a good tank or two.
