GARTH'S CORNER: Buffalo Prospects Lighting The Lamp

So Garth, I've got Girgensons down for 45g, and Grigo for another 50-60 (natch), but I'm not sure what the ceiling for Foligno is. What are you thinking? 35-40 goals? Or am I not giving him the credit he deserves here?

You didn't stop to realize that the reason the rookies are getting so many goals and points are because the Sabres are playing them in key roles because they HAVE to. Everybody else is playing their NHL guys to get ready for the season. Weak team equals quality ice time for rookies.

When is Millers hearing? I think he deserves three pre-season games for that slash. Make it 2 since he is a repeat offender.

GARTH what this guy is trying to say is that the Sabres suck.

That is not Miller, it is Enroth. Your a leafs fan, I'm surprised you didnt know that. That is considering you imply that you know everything.

Yes, but this is Shanahan were talking about. So Miller will split the suspension with Enroth.

Yep we suck but still beat the Hurricanes, really who cares, our team is rebuilding and it will be a long season, we know you don't like us and you are I titled to your opinion but give the whole your teams sucks a rest, your team won one cup by taking out the hottest goalie in the playoffs in game one of the final. Have a good season and let the best team win.

Rookies and 2nd yr guys "lighting the lamp" in meaningless preseason games "WILL" carry over to the regular season.

Bo knows football and Garth knows hockey.

Serious question.
How did your prospects do this preseason. anything look outstanding too you.

All those years of missing the playoffs should have helped you stock up on some real good talent. They should be just about ready to make the team full time.

How most of the Leafers' banter is beginning to sound:

Don't the Leafs and Canes have a blogger?

Yes?

Well, then go there.

And we're still beating the sh!t outta the other team's NHL players.

4-1-1 in the preseason.

Playing rookies.

Looks like the future is here now.

Thanks for making Garth's point for him.




Blow Leafs Blow.

So the sabres rookies are playing against vets and that is why they are scoring?
It could be said that they are scoring goals on other teams vets is more a positive thing. In fact my conclusion is more reasonable

anything look outstanding too you.

No, hence the need to pick up Bolland, Raymond and Clarkson... filling the holes the prospects can't.

Nope, traded the best draft opportunities away, made mediocre selections with the rest. Kessel, the compensation, likely walks at the end of this season.

They should be just about ready to make the team full time.

Marlies are stocked with full-timers. Leafs will be back at the bottom of the east in no time!

Do Laffs fans just come on here to b itch and troll all day?

Phyllis Kessel is why the Leafs can suck AND not stock up on quality prospects lol

Won't take us eight years to make the playoffs again lol

Leafs fans are just bitter because Buffalo's stable of prospects have looked good thus far and our rebuild is looking promising.

Their rebuild started in 1967 and has gone nowhere

Also they'll be back in rebuild mode in a year or two.

Umm I'm sorry, did you ever hear of a man named Wendel Clark? How about Mats Sundin? Now those guys..serious rebuilders..

What did the Laffs get for Sundin again? Oh yea. The enjoyment of watching him play for the Canucks.

Gosh that sounds familiar.

No, hence the need to pick up Bolland, Raymond and Clarkson... filling the holes the prospects can't.
