You and I don't know what he is or is not trying to do. You don't know if he's trying to unload Connolly or Stafford. You don't know if he's trying to pick up a player to add scoring depth and just not able to work something out.
I'm no Regier apologist, but for fuck's sake this is retarded. You and I both know that if Darcy TRIES to do something and it does't work out, he gets shit on for it. Exhibit A : Steve Benier. Exhibit B: Steve Moore . Exhibit C: Raffi Torres. He got shit on for all of these moves after the fact because they didn't work.
I haven't said anything about the Benier pick up, but man, the Moore pickup was brutal, just a wasted 2nd rounder.
The Torres pickup wasn't one I liked either. He did not address what I felt at the time (and still do by the way) was a fundamental problem with the Sabres forwards. Specifically the lack of a consistent offensive threat from this team.
You saw me railing against this when I first joined the old boards. You've listened to me bitch about it since I came over to Junkie. We may disagree, but I still firmy believe Regier has failed to address this issue.
