Marty Biron

[mchurchfie]

He signed with the Islanders for something like 1.4 mill. Once again Regier drops the ball. I'm not crazy about The Bulldog but he had some good points about it today. The guy was well liked in the lockerroom, the fans loved him, and last but most importantly he can play. He was a far better option than any we have right now. If Regier attributes the fact that Miller going down last year hurt our chances to make the POs, then why in the hell didn't he do something about it this year to insure it doesn't happen again?? Biron would have been perfect and was sitting right there to be had. This ****ing FO is gets more ******ed everyday. Of course, why should they do anything, they've already sold out their season tickets.

Dipetro gets hurt more than Miller does so Marty has more chance to play there, I guess.

Re: Marty Biron

If we use the Sabres logic (ie - excuse)...we didn't make the playoffs because Miller got hurt. Well if that is the case, then it's obvious our backup isn't good enough, so anyone with a brain could see that we needed to upgrade that position. What does this organization do? Well, they just ignore that fact and do nothing about it...as usual! Biron would have been perfect.

Re: Marty Biron

does anyone know if we actually contacted Marty??? maybe he didn't want to come back??? would have been great to have him though, really enjoyed Marty being here and loved hearing him "Mic'd up"

Re: Marty Biron

"Proactive" is not a term that the Sabres FO is familiar with.

Hell - "active" is a foreign term as well.

Re: Marty Biron

I hate this, but it is what I kind of expected. Lalime still has one year left on his contract and there is no way the Sabres eat that contract. They are not in the habit of throwing away money.

The good news is that Marty signed a one year deal and could come back next year.

It could be a real change in the team next year with all the free agents that we don't want right now, and Ruff's contract ending as well.

I hate the FO.

This FO gives the fans NOTHING to be excited about.

I think the fact Lalime signed a two year deal and has one year left is why they did not pursue Marty. This front office will not eat contracts. Look at Afinogenov. They let him rot in the press box than dump him. He didn't do anything but collect a paycheck last year.
The Sabres lack of a quality backup has hurt them the past two years.

Re: Marty Biron

Patrick Lalime was not the Sabres reason for not making the playoffs last year.

Maybe true, but that was a reason THEY gave for why they didn't make the playoffs.

Re: Marty Biron

A team concentrating on getting better would make the move especially considering miller does go down with injuries from time to time, Biron made to much sense hence us not making the move
Darcy is a loser
Quinn got what he wanted with the season tickets now its time to collect the profit
and we suffer the loyal fans

And what if Marty has a good year and wants 3 mill next year or some other team needs a goalie and throws a boatload of money at him. This FO had a perfect opportunity to bring back an alltime fan favorite and also improve the backup situation and they totally ****ing blew it like they always do. They are dumber than a bag of rocks. They know that they have us fans bent over because next to the Bills they are the only big game in town and they take TOTAL advantage of it. Lindy always talks about his players having passion but how can he expect them to have any when their bosses have about enough passion about winning as a corpse. We have a bunch of Vaginas running the FO.
