Risto - "I'm gonna be here for at least 4 more years!"


Naz - "Sorry bud, you don't count tonight - that's three more years...."

"Whos had the biggest impact on their team?"
Jt is a superstar. Its expected.

Skinner is a surprise.

Plus as he said, wanted to shed some positivity on the sabres as hes been crapping on them the past 5 years

- Fakepartofme


Skinner is playing pretty fantastic too. He's got 20 goals, tied for 2nd in the league and only one behind Laine for the lead. It's not like it's that big a stretch.

I agree, that the pleasant surprise story factor makes it worth mentioning. Tavares isn't such a surprise.

Right? All they are is dumb enough to be ridiculous, but homer enough to rile up the other fans... And people wonder why we have a bad name...

O'Neil was getting pretty annoyed with the rest of the panel over the Burtuzzi question.

Amazing how that works sometimes huh?

It's nice to see the Sabres finally playing up to their potential though. As a Leafs fan, I think all of us in here know what you Sabres fans have been suffering through, and we know how awesome it must be for you seeing your team play this year.

These games will likely be exciting for the next decade.

I agree it might be a good solution. Although other players might be upset, who knows what impact he has...

But why would Marleau possibly waive to go to some poop team somewhere else when he's on a cup contender? Do you think he's that eager to help the team he's willing to go elsewhere so he can maybe watch them win a cup while his new team fights for a lottery position?

- Thecakeisalie



I can be sentimental by nature but it’s a business with one goal:stanely cup

We are dealing with a cap and players have to fit under the cap while taking a slice of pizza. Marleau $6.25 almost 40 and what is his production.

No longer want to listen to babs or anyone that says he eats right plays right gud pro a leader

He can’t finish and is not good on the boards and does not belong with Matthew. I’m constantly aggravated watching him. Just like jaromir jagr in Calgary at end of his career. Time to go

They're the media. It's all about the story. Buffalo is a surprise actually rising from the depths of mediocrity this season and Skinner is playing the best of his career.

It's a good story, so it gets mentioned.

Has he actually been a better pickup than Tavares or as valuable, I dunno. But I can see why they'd talk about it.

Sure, you can feel the way you do about him.

But he has a full NMC. You still haven't anwered why he would possibly want to leave right now? Just out of the kindness of his heart he wants to waive to go to some bottom feeder from a cup contender (when he's never won and won't have time for a chance elsewhere) so he can give the Leafs more cap flexibility?

Why would Marleau ever do that?

He gets his money whether he stays or goes, so why go?

He still wants to win it all. Toronto is his best chance and one of the reasons he signed here.
