Nothing like tanking with the new contract. But what the hell, at least he isn't hurt.
Anyone Still Think Connolly was worth a raise?

Re: Anyone Still Think Connolly was worth a raise?
well it's only been a handful of games and the rest of these jokers haven't given him much help.
But so far, he looks like everyone else on this team: motivated to do just barely enough to keep that paycheck and roster spot.

He is worth every penny. The best player on this team. Look around the league, what do other teams pay top players?“You hold a players only meeting and get each guy to stand up and say what he can bring to the table... and if he doesn't, you punch him in the face.” ~~ Harry Neale, on how to fix the Sabres season.

Re: Anyone Still Think Connolly was worth a raise?
I have no problem with the talent level of Tim Connolly. He is just the wrong guy for the wrong job. If you think he is a #1 center to build around you are in denial. He is a complimentary player.
They should have traded him and maximized the return when they had the chance.
That being said, I hope I am wrong.

Still think? I never thought this guy should have been resigned for anything less then a decrease in his pay and he is proving me right. Another mistake by this organization...the hits (or should I say misses) keep coming!

Originally posted by bigbub2352Sure we gave a raise to someone who played 79 games in 3 years for us, we over paid for him then, and let some valuable players to our lineup walk for less money aka JP Dumont, then we proceed to over value him again and give him more money and he is the same inconsistent wimpy forward who is afraid to go into the corners for the puck, skates with his head down, plays with no passion or tuffness, doesnt stick up for his teamates and wows you every 10 games with a highlight goal key word being INCONSISTENT just like the rest of the roster Streaky passionless wimpy and oft injured“You hold a players only meeting and get each guy to stand up and say what he can bring to the table... and if he doesn't, you punch him in the face.” ~~ Harry Neale, on how to fix the Sabres season.

Re: Anyone Still Think Connolly was worth a raise?
Originally posted by JD SabreFanHow many top players, aside from Ovechkin, actually play the body? Connolly was the only player to go after Gomez. He is the best play maker on this team. Without him, the team is noticeably worse. A player of his caliber would be pulling 5+ million on other rosters. The only problem is that he has been injury prone. I feel hes worth the risk because I cant name 3 players better than him on this team.
