No, but for the returning players, a positive end to a miserable season can't hurt.

Except we might miss out on a stud who can help us start winning right away

Sooner we start winning,
the sooner that “culture” can start to change

To do that...
we need better players!!!

But we aren’t gonna have a “great 2nd half”

U act like these holes are gonna be magically fixed somehow

A run to 6th last isn’t gonna change the end of the year evaluations
It’s not gonna be nearly enough to “change the culture”

If we could make a run at the playoffs,
that’s one thing
Then I’d agree with you
But that’s just not gonna happen

Will just draft the next Connor McDavid with the 7th pick

Nobody "changed" Incognito except himself. He knew he was under a microscope, and one slip-up meant his career was over.

On a similar note, did anybody else notice that racial slur incident in the Jacksonville game just went away? I am guessing it's because it never actually happened.

He’s a POS regardless. (frank) using the N word in any context.

I’m glad he’s embraced Buffalo, but it’s embarrassing that Buffalo embraces him.

He’s a bully and used racial slurs (when he was an adult) (frank) him

I’m sure someone who’s called me “racist” for not liking Kane, will stick up for Incognito on HypocritBuzz

All this is 100% true but I still believe people deserve a Second Chance and he changed to a better person

Pick one to stay long term.

Nylander or Asplund

- sbroads24




Asplund.... not even close other guy is a lazy bust.

I don't dispute any of that, just saying that Buffalo didn't "change" him.

Also, Voynov's situation is much, much worse. It's not a crime to be a POS. It just makes you (justifiably) disliked by many. Depending on what actually happened, what Voynov did was potentially criminal.

Sure, second chances are cool. Calling someone a half-N word POS isn’t.

You lose the benefit of the doubt after that

Not potentially, it is. Kane and Kane were "potentially" (although the cinco de mayo thing was pretty damning)

The league flat out acknowledged he was a domestic abuser and the guy had to self deport as a last resort. Letting him back in literally tells everyone you're okay with that.

Struggling like hell i get it but the ceiling is higher. Unless you're flipping him for someone who can also be a long term solution

No. He made up his mind he’s a bust and he will never change his opinion

Yet, what is really hilarious is that since Scott Wilson has played in the top 6 the last three (3) games, guess what their record is?
Isn’t it funny that when you put in a guy who plays the right way, he contributes to the overall success of the team more that the primidonna guy who plays a perimeter, loose game?
Scott Wilson should not be critized or laughed at. What should be laughed at is who was displaced when he was successfully plugged into the top 6 role for the last 3 games.
On paper, this roster should be better than 30th-but-eying-31st...and teaching the primidonna’s that lesson is critical going forward.

For his effort? No, but him consistently playing in the top 6 gets the Sabres killed. He is not a good NHL player.

First of all I read on PFT that Richie cleared the air with Ngakoue whatever was said. 2nd of all, i have no idea what is said between players in NFL football games of any race, but nothing would surprise me and I’m sure Broads would find it highly offensive.
