To compare Stafford to Stempniak is like comparing Afinagenov to Crosby.


Please elaborate, because I have no idea what you're talking about....

Half this thread is about how a lot of people think Stempniak is no better than Stafford. Its not a fair comparison. Stafford is all potential at this point (much like Afinagenov) where as Stempniak is proven he can be a consistent point producer (like Crosby has).

Now don't go and start quoting that I said Stempniak is as good as Crosby...all I'm saying is that they've both proved they can score in the NHL.

I'm going to go ahead and reference this post by Seanothan a couple of pages back:

Exactly, they're selling the winger who scored 14 goals in his last 18 games, not the winger who scored 25 goals in 136 games prior to that...

HockeyTruth and GM4ADAY_COACH2, two guys on the Sabres forums who like to go nuts on people who dont agree with them. And now GM has his head up HT's ass so its getting worse.

Lol, yeah. They think the three signings, Morrison, Leopold, and Nieds, are a waste of time.

We filled the void of two D men (slight upgrade) and got veteran leadership.
Of course, they are just trying to fill the void of their problems in life and the fact since their huge douche bags they have no friends to rant to.

Ugh. Ranting feels awesome.

(I can kind of see why they love ranting) :D

HT obviously lost money on the Sabres one year and now hates them with a passion due to that but still loves them deep down, this all became clear with Squanto's exposure of his gambling problem.

To be fair, HT himself exposed himself as a gambler, not me. Someone asked him what his 'credentials' were because he was always professing how he was right. He said that he was a 'handicapper' (aka gambler), and that 'any bookie in Niagara Falls could vouch for his credentials.'

Being that I grew up in Niagara County, and live in Niagara Falls, that statement cleared a lot of things up for me.

The truth about Stempniak is that he is a more talented but just as streaky version of Stafford (or has the potential to be if he signs and gets the "do the minimum" bug). Just because he has put under the spotlight in a contract year with a young and hot Phoenix Coyote team, does not mean he will have the same performance over a whole season in Buffalo.

Exactly. People only see what they want to see. If Stempniak goes to another team and plays like he did for Phoenix, then all these people will claim they were right and that Regier is an idiot for not signing him, but, if he came to Buffalo and played like he did in Toronto majority of the time, the very same people would bash Regier for signing a guy to a big deal only because he's a "local product".

Yawn.

Stempniak has not proven a single thing in the NHL besides getting red hot for like 5 weeks. That doesn't excuse most of his career. And definitely doesn't warrant the contract he is demanding, and that is why he's still unsigned as of August 25th. I wouldn't want to chance it that he gets hot again, for very minimal money, sure, but not for what he wants, nor even for what he will get. Think about this, if Stempniak was able to get hot for a month and score a ton of goals, then so can Drew Stafford. I'd much rather hope for a miracle with Stafford then over pay for Stempniak.

The only thing faster than Chuck Norris is Lee Stempniak.

That doesn't sound the same as when Chuck Norris does that.
