As for the other guys, I imagine they'll offer Matt Hedge style insurance for the team :)[/quote]

I don't think we'll see them on the roster.

Vanek was much better defensively this year and anyone who watches the Sabres regularly knows this.

[quote evilnaturedrobot][quote Josh '99][quote evilnaturedrobot][quote dre1614]What i find odd about people saying he is horrible defensively, and is a liability on the ice.

Well why did he have the second best +/- on the team with a +9 behind only Jared Seminoff?[/quote]

Because +/- is the most misleading stat in all off sports.  +/- is a unit stat, not an induvidual stat.  Marek Malik has lead the Rangers (and at times the NHL) in +/-...has anyone here seen Marek Malik play defense?[/quote]I've seen Marek Malik play enough defense to know that he's not NEARLY as bad as he gets scapegoated for.[/quote]

Malik's not Sandis Ozolinsh clueless in his own end, it's rather that he's good for atleast 3-4 bonehead moves a game.  So while he's not an awful defender all the time, he is personally responcible for more goals allowed as any defensemen I've ever seen at the NHL level.[/quote]

You lost all credibility when you claimed +/- was a useless statistic. Look at the top 3 in the NHL last year - Vanek, Alfredsson, Lidstrom ... pretty good two way players.

What the heck is a UT?[/quote]

Utility?[/quote]

UT probably means "utility player", someone who has played multiple positions and is a decent hitter. For example, see the Red Sox's Alex Cora who can play both 2B and SS, and I think 3B if desperate.[/quote]


Someone who can play both the middle infield positions is hardly a great example of a utility player. Chone Figgins on the Angels played every position bar catcher and pitcher two years ago, and Miguel Cairo might do the same for the Yankees this season.

you're retarded ... Toph will be the captain and Sawada will be the assistant, maybe Krantz as well.
