    Adam to the wing? IMO, Put Leino with Pommers and Stafford and move Roy down until he fully heals. Lieno had been sucking so let's promote him. Line juggling is Ruffs down fall.

    So we're going to hold Adam (who's playing well) back by putting him with Roy and Stafford, who are playing like ****, and hold Pominville and Vanek (who are playing well) back by putting them with Leino (who's playing like ****).

    Makes perfect sense.

    We need Ennis back and we need Roy to wake the **** up.

    Sounds more like Roy just needs to get healthy.

    I thought Roy actually looked pretty decent in the last game.

    yeah if you believe Rob Ray playing the role of apologist during the broadcasts.

    If he's not healthy enough to play at a high level then bench his ass until he is.

    Sounds like an attempt to kick start a second line.

    I don't think it matters who is playing with Vanek/Poms, they're going to be productive. Hopefully this is what Leino needs to get going. Boyes has been playing better since getting PP time with Vanek/Poms.

    Re: Sabres put Leino between Vanek, Pommers

    That's one thing I can't ****ing stand about Ruff. He's like how Op would be if he was a head coach. A line kills it for several games but sucks it up for one or two and he splits the line up. There is no time for lines to gel with the constant rotation bull****.

    Re: Sabres put Leino between Vanek, Pommers

    Ruff said the move isn’t a knock on Adam; it’s more of an attempt to get Leino
    on track offensively while playing with the team’s top two scorers. Ruff also
    wouldn’t commit to Adam or Roy playing center, saying they could both see time
    at the pivot.

    We need Ennis back so Leino can be put at the end of the bench where he belongs.
