I don't believe he said he wants to...at least not in that article...only

Minutes after helping lead the Buffalo Sabres to a convincing 5-1 victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, Satan not only reiterated his belief he's going to be traded before Tuesday's deadline, he said someone told him it's going to happen.

Thsi is true but he also stated that he has wanted to leave for the last 2-3 years and his little phone call gesture only confirmed it for me.

he hasn't said anything about wanting to leave at all this year, it was all last year when the team had so many question marks

I think you are over- reacting, Spaz.

And I wouldn't blame any Sabre if he asked out of Buffalo after last season. The old owners of the team lied to players (And the league for that matter) with the team's finances- forcing them to get rid of any players andf talent that cost any real money. Peca was low balled- Hasek gave up after the team lacked any commitment to putting a team in front of him- I don't blame the players one bit.


Now that being said- It's a shame the Sabres didn't try to get a top defenseman with one of their 3 goalies- it's the only major commodity the Sabres have. But I also understand the looming strike ahead and the Sabre's need not to take on extra costs that could threaten the team's existance if there is a strike

. Right now, this team is situated in the best position possible to emerge from the strike compeditive-they have the NHL's youngest roster, one of the least expensive- and there is nowhere to go but up. They are not the Red Wings who might come back after a season off without half of their over the hill roster- (Hull, Chelios, Hatcher, CuJo, Hasek, Yzerman, and so on)

[Dozerdog]

At this point, I'd hope the Sabres keep the team intact.

If Regier is smart, he won't trade Satan. We're trying to win games and Satan is a big reason why we have been.
Spaz, I don't see how you could be so mad at someone who helps us win.

What's our record with Satan in the lineup? I am not blaming this season on just Satan this whole organization pisses me off. I honestly beleive they didn't expect to make the playoffs and that is the reason they haven't done anything to help our chances of getting there.

1- Satan has in the past done some showboating after goals in lopsided wins- I remember some stupid "shuffle walk" he did a season or two ago-

2- Tie Domi was ejected. Satan isn't that brave (or stupid) to show up the Leafs in their house if Domi is around. Next game-Peters will be dressed for sure. (Do they even play again this year?)

3- I beleive he was imitating Joe Horn

Nice Wysonian logic there. What's our record with Zhitnik? Curtis Brown? Biron? Patrick? Afinegenov? McKee?


As far as the playoffs- the difference between regular season and post seasin is the difference between losing money and turning a profit.


The organization wants to make the playoffs.

[clumping platelets]

I want Brendan Witt from the Caps

AND

Steve Rucchin from the Ducks

Don't even compare me to wys. This true about the other players but just talking about the comment that Satan was the reason why we are winnign games. If the Sabres really want to make the playoffs they sure in the hell aren't showing the fans that but sitting on their hands. They are just praying that by doing nothing they can squeak in and the fans will be less hard on the front office in the future.

Yes I know Satan has done some showboating before but I don't think that was what he was doing. It was strictly an I thing. I think he was telling other teams to give him a call that's what got out of it especially with all the rumors floating arounf about him leaving.

Something to chew on-

Satan Is tied for Rick Martin for consecutive seasons leading the team in goals(5) I'd prefer we keep him. Don Cherry was right last nigt on HNIC- if the Sabres dump Satan- they might as well put up a "Go away" sign on the front door of the HSBC arena.
