That too. But I don't hold that against her. That's on the schmuck who airbrushed a beautiful woman.

So you believe his Negative has out-weighed his Positive ???
- MEBSabresFAN



Well- don't forget he's still digging out of the very deep hole that results from being on the other side of the Myers trade.

So -for Sbroads - everything Kane ever does starts from at least negative 5

Top pair got shelled again, it looks like the fatigue of making them play 28 minutes a night is starting to set in. They need a proper 3 and 4 badly.

Don't know where that will come from.. Franson will be gone and Falk is an AHL guy but you're still stuck with Gorges for another year and Bogosian for another three or four

For as good as he's playing, he's got 16 damn points halfway through this year.

At some point the bad outweighs the good.

And yes, I know he capitalized on Ben Bishop losing his stick and Eichel making a great play

- sbroads24



Yes, he has 11 goals and 5 Assists in 29 games, nice try on the half season move

During his return from multiple broken ribs, he played to what his body allowed but he was not nearly ready to play his game, but I still haven't heard an answer as to your take on weather he has been playing up to your expectations ?

Neither one looked good tonight. I'm sticking with inconsistencies of youth.

Oh i know there's not much they can do about it this year unless they could find a swap for kane. More of a general comment i guess.

Bit of both i suppose. Either way they desperately need another pairing they can put out there that won't look like a tire fire.

Franson was really bad too. Had no idea where the puck was multiple times, even when it hit him once.

I consider that in the past, I don't care what we traded for Lehner, if Nelson shows a considerable, consistent superior play I would consider more playing time but this is Lehner's year and I'm satisfied with Nilson's play, but not to the point of sacrificing the play time of Lehner, We need to know what he has.

I think you need to recuse yourself of Kane comments based on excessive hate. One of the best players since he finally got healthy and you STILL can't shut up.

16 points at the 41 game mark.

Gets put on the ice in a ton of crucial situations, makes a bunch of stupid plays.

Sorry. Even if he's being targeted by the refs, are those penalties going to stop?

Way more goes into it than a lot of people think. Like it or not there's politics, egos to manage, coaching styles, whether you listen to the coach, how you practice, undisclosed injuries, future considerations, part of that being money...

41 games and how many did he play? You distorted his games and games 100%. Pure, unadulterated hate.

lol, its annoying how much of a jekyll/hyde team this is with the exception of 15, 90 and i guess 21.

You'd think we were icing a completely different roster. I know you're not going to get 100% from everyone every night but these guys go game to game some looking like all stars one night and AHL bound the next

It is the (frank)ing coach....the only time this team plays the way it should is when the players ignore the X's and O's disco bullpoop and play they way they are meant to play: north/south hockey.

For his part, 82 has been pretty damn consistent too.
