CoachChuckDickerson Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 AD...I knew you'd jump all over this! If he parked himself in front of the net for 4-5 PPs a night during the playoff, I think he'd bring a new dimension to this team. He's won a cup, is a high character guy that would know his role, and could be just the "wild card" this team needs to compete with the Ducks in May. That said, I'll now skulk away into the background and let everyone return to their regularly scheduled program... 866949[/snapback] If the Sabres developed some kind of harness he would wear that they could attach to one of his line mates so they could haul his carcass up and down the ice I might think about it.

The PP's about gaining entry and then cycling the puck. If teams had to spend more time defending the front of the net against the Sabres, they couldn't attack the point men and wingers as hard as they're doing now, which is why the PP is having so much trouble, IMO. Is LeClair that much a cripple that he couldn't skate 60 feet 4-5 times a night? Any other guys like that who might be better low-cost playoff pickups?

CoachChuckDickerson Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 AD...I knew you'd jump all over this! AD's spidey sense kicked him square in the as*hole as soon as you typed LeClaire and Sabres in the same sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lori Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Please. The Sabres would circle the ice twice before LeClair made it blueline-to-blueline. Powerplay specialist? Maybe 10 years ago, when the officials didn't mind goals being scored through the side of the net.. 866921[/snapback] I loved LeClair when he was a Hab. Wouldn't have won that last Cup without him. But that was fourteen years ago, and your points are valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornerville Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 The Sabres need to ensure their defense is healthy and Ryan Miller needs to have his A game to win the Cup. As far as a deadline move, I am not sure who to get...but I guess a Mike Grier type...player who can skate with some grit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meazza Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 I don't think the Sabres need anything at the moment. Will be hard though. Just have to stay healthy and get the bounces you need to make it all the way to the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPR4444 Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 i think the Sabres need one phyusical defenseman to add to the mix. Every dman on the roster now is a "finesse" type player, and opposing teams are starting to try to interfere with Miller/Biron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 15, 2006 Share Posted December 15, 2006 Wow... They need the PP tonight v. the Panteros... Through 2 and all they are mustering is 11 shots against Belfour... And have 1/2 the PIM of FLA (FLA has x2 PIM). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
