It's also been reported that the Sabres are listening to offers, and haven't decided on him yet.

Best to wait until 3pm to see.

Could very well be creative license from the reporter. LeBrun has said the Sabres are listening.

That's what TBN does, use dramatic words, maybe try to put them in Regier's mouth, in order to express their "expert" opinions and criticize him. Can't wait for fat ass Bucky Treason to chime in later.

I trust Pierre LeBrun's report that he isn't in play RIGHT NOW.

Lebrun is pretty reliable with Sabres information.

If Connolly was showing up each game, scoring, and playing like a legititmate first line center, he would not be touchable. Knowing things for him have been reverse this season and we do not intend to keep him after the season, we have over two hours remaining to ship his ass out.

Anyone who says Connolly is untouchable is not the best pro-Sabres source.

Goofy, it was John Vogl of TBN using that term. Obviously they are trolling as usual.

Cmon, Vogl is the BEST BEAT REPORTER IN THE HISTORY OF SPORTS according to his editor.

That's The Buffalo News's use of the word, not the Sabres.

I thought it was lame that they did that special report on him all because of what Miller said. It's not that I don't respect what sports reporters do to get information to fans, I know they work hard, but it was obvious that they were way too sensitive about Miller's remarks so they had to give readers a detailed play-by-play description into what goes into their work day.

What does that make Bucky Gleason, the next Edward Morrow?

The Buffalo News is really leftist today.

It's not a horrible idea to keep him and see if he can muster some playoff pride and up his UFA value significantly, with a strong showing. That would be in his best interest but I don't know if he has that club in his bag. Still, if the offers are weak, keeping could be the best thing for the club in the short term.

If Darcy Regier fails to acquire a center, I guess we are stuck with Connolly. Regier just gets a castration this evening.

Really? It seems the perfect word to me...I mean, what fucking team would want to touch him anyways?
