With the All-Star festivities over, we'll slowly (and reluctantly) turn our attention back to the train wreck that is the Buffalo Sabres.

Pominville is great at saying nothing controversial. I bet the TBN guys have a pool for the first one to get him to say something they can actually make something out of. i wonder what it’s at now.

sure, but it was Luke Adam asking the question; not a TBN guy.

wow

Luke asking Pommers the hard hitting questions. I’d of gone with Stamkos. Maybe Datsyuk.

Seriously, what's he supposed to say?

“Yeah, we’re SOL. This team sucks. I’d take anyone over our guys, honestly.” He’s the captain and a good teammate trying to get through a rough time. It’s idiotic that TBN made a story out of it, much less that they tried to use it to rabble-rouse.
