Ryan White. The most overrated hab for the sole fact that he can throw punches. So ridiculous.

I do not understand what people see in this player. What does he do ?

He's not a good fighter. He's not good defensively. He has zero puck skills. He's relatively small for a guy who plays the way he does. I don't get it.

Miller is killing me in my hockey pool this year. :cry:

But Go Habs Go.

Ugh tell me about it. I have him AND Myers. I say Buffalo goes for a firesale but I doubt Miller or Myers goes anywhere due to contracts and being hard to replace. What Buffalo should do is fire Lindry Ruff. He's coasting on this reputation he's some sort of genius with small market, small budget clubs (or club in this case) cause of success with the 97-01 Sabres of the Hasek era then the 05-07 era where they were offensively geared. But he's not as special as they say. Can't believe any pundit would consider him to coach Team Canada at the Olympics. They just think that because Buffalo has held onto him for 15 years he must be some sort of wonderful coach.

Well he ain't going to the HOF despite the accolades. Billy Reay once coached the Hawks for 15 years with 0 Stanley Cups to show for it in three Finals trip too. Does that mean he was great? No it just means the Hawks believed in him to the bitter end. I'll tell ya what: Ruff's tea has 4 playoff appearances in 10 years. Loyalty counts I guess but man that sucks IMO. Regier's done an ok job but he's tied himself to that horse and it's been dragging the Sabres down. Change might just be in order. Sure someone will snap him up somewhere but then he'll just prove what I've always believed when a team like Columbus or something thinks he'll raise them to glory: He is overrated!

Far from useless. Stupid, yes. Useless, no. Need to figure out a way to control his emotions and stupid decisions. He's a great 4th liner aside from the stupidity.

I like White, but he's not going to have a very long career in the NHL if he doesn't learn to use whatever limited brain he has. Once again he changed momentum in the wrong way. Teams are going to start targeting him if they realize how easy he is to goad.

This is White's first game back after being benched for taking a double minor. I love the guy's emotion and energy, but he can't be doing that.

I love White, but he needs to learn how to start a fight... He already comes up to the other player while throwing punches lol.

It makes the other team think when they know that at any random time they may start taking haymakers without notice lol but his timing could be better

You are sickening, now.

You are one of the most biased poster here...

He brings sound defensive play, good faceoff skill, awesome forecheck and toughness to the team.

Sure he takes bad penalties, but he'sf far from useless.

Well he just pulled a carbon copy of what ended him in the pressbox :laugh:

MT won't be happy about this.

I think White just has an aggression control problem. You can see how devastated he was in the box as he realizes what he did to the team.
