The subject.... Darcy.... I mean, c'mon. Talk about a horrible GM. Let's
review why. Regir has not made many major changes to the season for the
last few years. He always makes all of his trades before the trade
deadline, or in the off season. You rarely see a new player join the ranks
when the Sabres need it the most. ESPECIALLY last season. When a team
performs that bad, its time to make a change. More often then not, when a
player leaves, the rest of the players see that and start fighting for their
jobs. And at the time, the Sabres didn't even know if they were going to
be there next year. And what did Darcy do to help us in our most desperate
hour??? He let Ray go to Ottawa for a shot at the cup!! Why? CAUSE HE CAN'T
DELIVER ONE TO BUFFALO!!!! I'll post more on this later, I'm getting
frustrated am at work =P

Let's face it, not every GM wants to deal. You have to have a partner to
dance and maybe a little something to dangle in front of the other
GM...Buffalo hasn't had much in the past to offer. Most GM's don't like to
tinker with their lineup in the middle of the season anyway. Trade deadline
deals are often the result of desperation.

As far as Darcy's deals were concerned...think Mike Wilson, Matt Barnaby,
Michael Grocek, Chris Gratton. Darcy got rid of these non-performers and
actually got more than they were worth in return.

Rob Ray was a limited-talent hockey player who policed the ice and made
nice-nice in the community. Giving him a shot in Ottawa was a class thing
by both Regier and Muckler. But they, and the league's other GM's, know
that Rob's days on the ice are over. You don't see anyone rushing to him
with a contract, do you.

Ya, good move with Barnaby(still more fans wear his old Sabre shirt than any
current Sabre.and that was years ago).............Gratton.....he traded for
this stiff and now Tampa has a defenseman that is better tan anything we got
now!

It's hard to take someone's opinions seriously when they don't even know
how to spell the subject's name! I mean, c'mon!

As compared to the other teams who make trades when...?

Ahhh, check the newspapers. The team was bankrupt.

Yup. Keeping Ray would have helped this team really climb in the
standings.

.... oh boy, and the season hasn't even started yet.

I have to agree...he has gotten rid of some damn good players...and what do
we have to show for it?! We almost didn't even have a team! I love the
Sabres, but Regier has got to go!!
