Entries sure, that high up in exits indicates d-men who cant move the puck

i'd hazard to guess that gilbert Perreault would've lead those to categories as well...

that said, is there a link to the chart used in this one?

Duch to Ottawa

Turris to Nashville

Picks to Colorado. (I am assuming picks as Irish said.)

Jack ECHL is at the top of both those categories because he's a superior puck handler with great speed and elusiveness
- Michael Pachla


Most definitely, but what about when he's not on the ice? We've seen it. The offense sucks because no one can pass.

the offense sucks because they have had trouble finishing...not sure what the fancy stats say but I've seen a lot of puck possession and offensive zone time this season, moreso than last year....

one of their biggest problems is that they're playing from behind nearly all the time, sometimes as many as two and three goals...and if that's the case, it's usually over

I gotta give it to Sakic. He didn't get a defenseman, but he got a solid prospect and 2 1sts to try and get one.

But Kyle Turris for a 1st? That's a bit steep especially when he's a UFA. If we can get more than that for Kane I'd be ecstatic. I don't want to lose him, but if they can get a 1st and a defensive prospect, I'm not talking Theodore level, but a solid guy. I'd do that, and hope to lure Kane back in the summer.

finishing? they have trouble even getting into a position to do that. The breakouts have been getting worse as the year has gone on. fewer attempted controlled exits from the first week or so.

Sounds like Turris is signing an extension. even if he didn't hes worth that as a rental. basically played at the same level as duchene

Duchene to OTT. Turris to NASH with a 6x6 extension. COL gets Girard, Kamenev, Bowers, Hammond, a 1st (OTT), a 2nd (NASH) and a 3rd (OTT).

Oops, (frank)ing google. I don't twitter, so I didn't even realize. It seems like it could be right, it's not like it was Karlsson going to Colorado. That would be obvious.

Housley is learning on the job about coaching in the NHL. He does deserve the benefit of the doubt. However I would think there are at least two things he needs to change. One is stop trying to protect players and stop trying to play politically correct. You are the coach act like one. It is said when in command ...be a commander. One thing Housley should have learned from Scotty Bowman was to push buttons of players not performing up to task and motivate them. The other thing I am tired of is he is to slow at changing the Kane Eichel line up. When things are going bad he should either double shift Eichel with perhaps Reinhart or ROR.

Also it's getting to be about that time when a shakeup of players needs to be done. The Sabres players are past the point of using the excuse of a new coach and new scheme. Horse hockey. I would suggest now is the time to trade Evander Kane and get a stud defensemen. Anyone with eyes can clearly see our defense, sans Risto, is slow and not sharp. Sometimes the defense and the rest of the team look like they are skating in sand. Something needs to be done soon or Housley may lose the entire teams confidence.

The extension is going to price Kane out of Buffalo.

it should help if anything. Turris is better...and is a centre.
