Josh Anderson is only good for scoring goals against Toronto.

I guess that's motivation enough for Buffalo to acquire him. 😆

That doesn't mean he's hard to play against. It means he never has the puck

That doesn't make him harder to play against. It's the opposite. Other teams feast when he's on the ice. He's got one of the worst CF% and xGF when on the ice. He's been outscored by 12 goals when he's on the ice. Other teams get excited when he's on the ice because they know they can score goals.

So, here's where you actually have to use your brain. What Harder To Play Against player would you rather have besides Anderson? If its Krebs, then that goes against the theme of this roster & isn't worth my time. If its someone like Clutterbuck, then state your case. This is a roster of men, not one of sissies.


Well your condescending remarks aren’t worth my time
1- Anderson sucks. Idc care that he racks up hits. Hitting doesn’t necessarily make u tougher to play against

2- I’d rather have a guy who skates well, can forecheck & put on pressure, & plays feisty getting under the skin of our opponents- like Krebs for example

I do agree the Sabres need to get tougher to play against
But a few more hits a game doesn’t change much. We could use a few more players who can do the things i described above though, bc a guy like that is MUCH tougher to play against imo, than a guy who sucks that lays a few hits

Especially an old guy who gets hurt a lot & is overpaid- like Anderson. I seriously wouldn’t take him for free at 50% off.
He’s terrible


And sorry if u can’t handle someone who disagrees with you
Anderson sucks- zero interest- the end

You can finds tons of guys in FA that are better options than Anderson lol. Guys like William Carrier, Dakota Joshua, Stefan Noesen, Teddy Bleuger, Michael Amadio, Jordan Martinook et..

I'll give you partial credit for wanting to get tougher. Foegele and trenin are reasonable targets, although 4y 16m is an awful lot of money for what Foegele brings. I'd pass on anderson and Liam Obrien,
