Being with Tavares doesn't automatically make one a consistent 30-goal scorer by itself. It didn't happen for the carousel of people who played with JT this season. Moulson always had a good nose for the net, but, yeah, he needs not just elite talent with him, but an elite playmaker to get him the puck at exactly the right moment.

He can't skate well enough to create his own space, he's not all that good along the boards, and he's not even a real net-front presence the way people used to say. He's really just a guy who becomes basically invisible while the other two players on his line do all the work. Then when everyone forgets about him he can sneak into a good area, and if someone gets him the puck at the right time, he's calm enough by the net to pick a spot and score.

So, he's only good for that one thing, and only if he's in the right conditions to do it. He could probably find a home somewhere and produce again, but it's probably more trouble than it's worth trying to figure out exactly what those right conditions are.

this is 100% accurate. i think the worry is that he cant even do that anymore. the hope, since we are basically stuck with him, is that last year was due to conditioning and that its a problem that will be rectified. id rather be rid of him honestly, if he cant crack our top six he belongs in the press box, theres no good reason to play him with the third or fourth line. none.

we are stuck with moulson

we are not stuck with the invisible underachiever

- homiedclown

Dont bother responding to any of the points I bring up, just repeat the same stuff...stinks, bum, underachieving, whatever. Very clever.

And yet, because we are stuck with Moulson, you defend his slowness, lack of scoring, and no upside to his game.

I fully expect both to be improved hockey players for us next year, unless they are traded....I think trying to move Gus is a mistake cuz we won't get a lot for him, and because he is still young,cheap, and still has room to grow. Giving up on a kid that young who has already shown he can be versatile and score some goals is a mistake.

Girgensons attitude is starting to get on my nerves. Didn't like the comments he made. If he had the production to back up those comments I'd let them slide.

What comments did he make?

Where is this story?

I'm sure if we do people over rate him and everything I mean he's a good player but he has his moments just like Tyler Myers he'll make some gorgeous play and then he will just do the dumbest play ever but I would be totally fine if we traded for him

Expansion shall set him free!!!

Well set Buffalo free of him...

- Stripes77


no, no, he will be EXPOSED for the expansion draft, but nobody is taking him. we will have far more appealing pieces exposed. pysyk/mccabe, larsson, foligno, ennis, i mean yeah, exposing him helps us get to 25%, but nobody is actually taking him.

What makes you think Molasses is going to improve ? He has been decreasing the last two years and this year he was just downright NHL player/AHL player

it's facts

moulson put up 1.31 points per 60 minutes on a really bad year

the young savior put up 1.01 points per 60 minutes

moulson's production is 30 % better and he stinks to hell


so if you look at the golden child, WITH BOTH EYES OPEN, he really took a big step back


you can't have it both ways, bash one player to no end, yet put a first rd bust on the untouchable list whose production is a fraction of a slow moulson


there are intangibles to take into account with moulson as well, while the lion eater refuses to play the coaches system


if you want to be a cheerleader, join the WNY hockey women's education class


if you want to talk hockey, prove me wrong with an honest assessment


you want to talk sh!t in responses to me, yet never back it up with logic, and hockey related conversations

ball is in your court, as you have had lots of digs at me over the months, and if you need help, I have lots of value vision coupons I can e mail you

"Girgensons: ''It's not loud in the NHL arenas, especially FNC, sometimes it's dead silent. They come to relax not go bonkers"

"Aivis Kalniņš ‏@A_Kalnins
It's all business between me and coach. - Girgensons when asked on his relationship with Bylsma"

In same breath Girgensons wants to stay but I don't like the comments he made. Even though I agree FNC is quiet. That's the teams fault

Yes, obviously Girgensons said he wants to remain with #Sabres for as long as he can, and that they been working on an extension.

When you get to have cushy Cali teams that make the playoffs every year and win divisions frequently it's a little different then being dead last two years in a row...
