We dont need Roy's Scoring at the expense of a Cancer, We have Hodgson to replace Roy.
Both DAL and BUF GMs confirm this deal was MONTHS in the making.
Well we're definitely getting bigger which is what we needed.
Are you diagnosed retarded or is it still under evaluation?
Please excuse my dumb and pointless topics and posts, i more than likely will not be sober for any of them
He's an idiot with a keyboard, put him on ignore and life will be much more pleasant, trust me.
Cancer or not, Roy was a .77 point per game guy even with issues with Ruff.
The writing was on the wall once he publicly blasted Ruff however.
Meathead put it right earlier in this thread, Ruff gets players and tries to mold them into what he wants, he doesn't put his players in the best position to succeed and it should be painful obvious by now that his players don't completely buy in to his coaching style. I've never been a fan of Ruff nor Regier and think both should have been shown the door years ago. Square peg, round hole.
I won't say the Stars fleeced the Sabres here but it's hard to spin the trade as even. Then again, when you deal a player who publicly disses the organization after having a down year his value ain't gonna be that high. Still I don't know how anyone can truly be happy giving up a guy that has the ability to score a point a game when used properly, hell used improperly he was a .77 point per game guy, for a glorified Gaustad.
I'll put it bluntly, we traded a vagina for some balls.
Just the way you like it.
(sorry but you're set up here)
Team to Roy:
Derek Roy will be in the top 25 in the NHL in scoring next year again. He has Jaromir Jagr and Ray Whitney to kick him in the butt on the Stars now.
Go Bills! Go Sabres! Go Lottery! Go no traffic!
He's got Two 40 year olds playing his wing and you expect him to be top 25?, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
I think he could be top 25 just because he is finally back to being 100 percent and he won't have Ruff riding his ass all the time and he won't be hanging around Chippewa Street 24/7. Doctors had told him he won't be back to 100 percent from his injury in 2010 for 2 years. With that being said, I'm still glad he is gone.

Girioux had Jagr on a wing last year, and finished in 3rd, and Whitney himself finished tied for 12th. Not sure why it is laughable. 67 points was 26th last year, a healthy Roy can get past that. Plus I do not think those guys will put up with any crap, and Roy is in his contract year.

He became a major negative on D, floating while the opponent crashed the net. Lost his desire and it was time for a change. A year too late, IMO.
Sabres became what Darcy built, a soft roster with little heart. Getting tougher and having leaders is long overdue.
I have zero problem with that. I hope he does. Too bad he was a lazy, diving piece of **** in Buffalo.

He has not been a diver for at least 3 years now. He actually got jipped on many calls last year because of a reputation from his first few years.
I'm intrigued by the 'throw in' guy. If there is one thing Darcy has been real lucky with in his trades, it has been the 'throw in' guy.
Sulzer was solid.
