I actually wanted to see Ales Hemsky on this team and I thought they could do but like always nothing was done. Maybe after they go 1-10-1 they'll start doing something

I'm done for the night. I'll be glad to fight for why Regier is not at fault for the way our upgraded playoff team is playing tomorrow.

Okay. When Edmonton is finally making a comeback they're going to get rid of their offensive producer coming back from injury. IT'S NOT NHL 11.

I got this one SabresBillsFan, Let me enlighten BandY on what I've been screaming for 3 seasons now.

Blue and Yellow, I've been voicing my opinion on the radio, amongst friends, in multiple message boards, at games...etc...etc...

My opinion is simple, "they currently don't have the talent to challenge for Lord Stanleys Cup"!

Its really that simple. I have been a fan and was born the year this team was created.
We are not Vancouver, we are Buffalo, New York. I don't know about Vancouver, but I take great pride in where I am from.
I am a middle class guy, an industrial electrician, who pulled myself up by the boot straps, hard nosed, and worked 6 - 10's to 7 - 12's a good portion of my life and I NEVER MAKE AN EXCUSE AS TO WHY MY JOB ISN'T DONE AND DONE CORRECTLY!

In other words, I expect the same blue collar work ethic from my sports teams. If I can bust my ass, so can they, but they need to have the talent to start, its obvious this team is still lacking in that dept.

It is the GM's job to keep the team stocked with players. If you find yourself with no top 6 forwards on the club...and haven't addressed the lack of viable centers since the two that shall not be named left town years ago...then whose fault is it? If it is impossible, then we might as well not have a GM. The job description is simple, supply players to fill needs of the organization, providing tools for a coach to utilize to win games.

You either believe:

A) This is a cup worthy team and the players are not being utilized correctly to maximize their skills and potential...

B) The team does not have players to fill its' needs and be successful

C) Some combination of above

B & C fall under the responsibility of the GM. Unless you can logically argue A, then it falls on Reiger. The end.

A comeback??? They have been outplayed in every game so far except the first game, you can't keep getting out shot like 45-15 every game. Mark my words Edmonton will be back down to last place and they'll will probably want to move there good players and let the young guys play.

I completely agreed with everything you said.

Very well said. I'm so sick of people sticking up for this bum Regier. The moves for Leopold and Morrisson were made because of Tallinder and Lydman leaving.

Ah, then you heard me?
Very good, just voicing my opinion as a fan, almost fubard it with the "Get off his ______ Line" but caught myself before I said it.

So let's see.

Two defenseman leave. Darcy has two choices.

1. Let young guys step in and try to replace them, knowing there's a talent drop off. Result : Get motherfucked by fans for not doing anything.

2. Go out and sign two comparable players to replace them, and try to remain competitive. Result : Get motherfucked by fans for doing something.

I'm not Regier fan, but you guys are being unreasonable on this point.

I'd would have been for #1. I wanted to see if Weber is as good as everyone thinks/says he is.

Lets see....anticipate two defensemen possibly leaving, a known fact for quite some time (cough, years, cough), be prepared, act. Maybe, even maybe...trade guys expected to leave as free agents and stock up picks to use to replace them in the system proactively. Is Darcy running the team, or is the team running him?

This is why the Steelers and Patriots win games every year, and the Bills suck donkey dick too by the way.

At least the Bills won't lose this weekend unlike the Sabres...

_________________

Maybe you personally, but Regier is constantly bitched about for not doing anything. Then, when he does something, he gets ripped for that too.

Weber can't even get into the lineup over Butler when there's an opening. He's not the magical savior of this defense as so many potray him.

Squanto you and I both know they needed to acquire a top 6 forward on this team in the worst possible way. This team has looked like shit so far because Connolly and Vanek have been invisible so. Then Stafford decides I better get in the best shape of my life since I'm entering my contract year. WTF!!! That's a fucking joke. These guys should be in the best shape each and every year with the amount of money these guys make.
I just don't see Morrissonn and Leopold as this big upgrade over last years team. Yes they are decent defenseman but they have done anything yet to blow me away.

Again very well said. Totally agree

As usual, you miss the fucking point.

Please continue on with your irrational 'FIRE EVERYONE AND TRADE CODY MCCORMICK FOR OVIE AND BACKSTROM STRAIGHT UP' discussion.
