If the price is right, I don't understand how people wouldn't like this. Kaleta is one of the best defensive forwards and penalty killer's in the league.
No way is he one of the best. Maybe one of the best on the Sabres last year but no way near one of the best in the league. He's one of the better agitators in the league but that's about it.
So you're telling me that even though he was one of the best on the Sabres last year, that it just means nothing? Sure, that's a good way of looking at it.
You could be the best on the any team on something and be absolutely nothing on a different team. I dunno if you watched any of last season. I believe we had injury troubles all year last season. Including a few games with 9 STARTERS out. Obviously someone will step up if our usual guys are out. And we were ranked 19th in the league in PK so I dunno why you'd be praising Kaleta like this. He didn't make to great of a difference on the PK. I think most people like the guy because he's from the area. He's a good agitator. But with the recent acquistions of Scott and Ott I think the Sabres really needed to make a play for a scoring forward. I doubt he'd get anything more than 10-15 points. WE got a few young players that are definately ready to make the jump. So I dunno if this was the wisest signing. But I don't hate Kaleta. As always somethings better than nothing. Looks like we've got a pretty agitating team for the rest of the league for next season (Hopefully there is one that is...)
On a different note is Ennis signed yet? What's taking so long?
