I seriously have never seen him make a pass to give his winger a scoring chance.

There was that time once.

Well, he must have brought something to the table to get that contract.

Gotcha. Ok, then he's still big, so he's the same player.

I mean this season. I just remember him as a tough player, who worked his ass off, was always in corners, mucking it up, and making plays. He's invisible.

That whole Buffalo team has had a hard time playing physical this year. Not something that Philly normally had a problem with but I didn't especially think of him as a physical player. To be honest last year was really the first year I even heard of the guy.

Really? I thought he was actually developing some decent chemistry with Moen and AK earlier in the season.

Ya Buffalo might have jumped out on a limb on that one.

He was. And according to Marty, even though Moen has been hurt, and AK plays elsewhere, Eller should still be producing with them.

from my perspective, he was never all that great.. he has above average vision and puckhandling. also a pretty good passer. but thats really it. I think playing with briere really helped him cause briere is a true sniper. but w.e hes gone now. f him. excited for the game next week boys!

Never. I'm still looking.

I guess they thought if Detroit picked and invested in him he'd be the next Datsyuk or something.

Could be that he excelled because of linemates. You would know more than us.
