[Sabre the Win]

For real...the whole out of shape thing gets me.... can anyone name another player (that we've had in last 5-6 years) outside of ROR or maybe Girgs that even comes close to hounding the puck like Mitts? Guy always has his feet moving. Can he be stronger and in better shape? Yes... but calling him out of shape is silly

I think it's his acceleration that makes him appear slow and out of shape. Hes got speed but just not as much speed as some other guys so he often looks a bit slower but I really think it's his acceleration that hinders him a bit and creates that illusion hes out of shape.

Does Compher count?

id say no ..i dont remember him playing a game for Sabres but then again i have no idea what the rules are ..haha. But yes..he is a puck hound.
