First we have Ehrhoff complaining about his time with the Sabres.

“I thought it was a team on the uprise,” he said. “They had a good roster and I felt, with a few additions, that they could take the next step to be a competitive team. Unfortunately it didn’t work out that way and they went into full rebuild mode. That was obviously a little frustrating because that’s not the reason I (signed) there.”

First of all. This was a bad signing from the get-go. Ehrhoff had just been totally owned by the Bruins. He was signed to be a leader on the Sabres and just mailed it in basically. He did nothing to make the team better.

Then Ville Leino comes out.

"My Buffalo time was pretty bad overall. I was disappointed for the players and the organization and I think they are going to be like that. It’s hard to play in the NHL if you don’t have a good team. Obviously, that was kind of a tough time but sometimes life goes hard and you have to bounce back."

I'm pretty sure he had less points than John Scott. So yeah.

SEGWAY!

John Scott scored a goal and then killed someone else.

I don't see anything wrong with what either one of them said. This franchise has been horrible since Pegula took over. Last year was an embarrassment on and off the ice.

i dont think any player enjoys losing. its not surprising those two would be a little down on their time in buffalo.

The point is that both were paid a lot of money to come here and lead us to that next level. And both were failures.

Leino was suppose to be a piece of the puzzle. I think picking him up was the beginning of the end for the Sabres. They spent all this money on him. Not only didn't he produce, he was downright putrid. He doesn't have to look far as to why the Sabres sucked with him.

Leino was a classless bum from the minute he got here. Did anyone really expect him to say anything good? And who really cares what his opinion is? They ****ing hated him in Philly, they hated him in Detroit, the common denominator was...
