Sabres have had 4 players on the bottom pairing so far this season (assuming tonight's game)
Everybody hates Franson.
Most of us like Casey Nelson to some degree after his couple games last season. He only played against Montreal this season and that was on his off-hand with Franson... I sure don't hate him and I don't think many do.
Dmitri Kulikov had the rest of the games with Franson. Most of us agree that he's been pretty awesome.
And tonight, Jake McCabe is probably the bottom pairing LHD. He's good so we like him.
So in the end we just hate Cody Franson. And Josh Gorges, but he somehow doesn't play on the bottom pairing...
