BuffaloHockeyBeat Vesey happy with ‘reliable’ game despite lack of offense

“I’ve been very reliable. Talking to the coaches, they trust me in all situations. I think in talking to them, I’ve played solid, I just haven’t got the goals. I guess I’m just going to keep going with it and the law of averages, one of these pucks has got to go in.”

Go to the net and get your nose dirty. A puck will eventually go off you.

Krueger believes Vesey is close to breaking out. Vesey generated confidence during the Sabres’ two-game trip to Sweden last week. In last Saturday’s 5-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, he recorded a season-high four shots.

Krueger said Vesey’s “scoring is just going to be the final piece of the puzzle.”

Krueger's positive attitude is mentioned by everyone that knows him. But at what point does it become delusional?

If Krueger really believes that, then yes, he's delusional. Vesey has had maybe 2 decent games. He hasn't looked good at all and he adds close to nothing overall.

I doubt he really believes that.

"Jimmy Vesey has been as reliable as Sobotka, so it's a situation we feel good about." -Botts

 

[valet]

only thing he should be happy with is that he isn't being waived. he hasn't been good at all this year, and he seems not to care that much about it.

I always kind of got that read on vesey even going back to his draft year, but seeing him play in the frequency I have this year, it is fully confirmed. We should definitely not even consider resigning him

Can I be unhappy?

Just three more months of his "reliability", I hope.

I've tried, but Vesey just refuses to go away

 

[Fjordy]

Trade him

 

[ForsbergMoDo21]

He’s such a nothingburger when he steps on the ice he’d better watch out that Lazar doesn’t pick him up and take a bite.

 

[UnleashRasmus]

Scrub, trash, etc. Pick a synonym. Trade him for a 5th.

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Idk which is sadder, the idea that the law of averages will make one of these muffin shots go in or the pride in 4 shots on goal.

 

[Gabrielor]

He's been pretty bad here. They should be prepared to trade him for a Roch guy to take the reigns. Or Tyler Toffoli .

 

[Panthaz89]

Take a shot every time he takes a bad angle shot and the opposition gets possession again.

 

[debaser66]

Waste of a roster spot
Waste of a pick

 

[valet]

just popping in to once again reiterate my hate for jimmy vesey

 

[SabresSharks]

2 3rds squandered by 2 different GMs for this non-entity.

Hopefully our Vesey fetish has concluded, and Ralph's observations are explained by his hyper-optimistic approach and not sincere belief.

Take a shot every time he takes a bad angle shot and the opposition gets possession again.

He's like Kane without any of the good stuff like goals or toughness.

 

[Buffaloed]

He's like Kane without any of the good stuff like goals or toughness.

Or Peters without the andro

 

[Sinter Klaas]

He's barely treading water at this point. Frustrating when there are a few players riding the pressbox bench that can contribute more than he has.

 

[VaporTrail]

Just like Larsson the other night.. The only way he scores is if a puck bounces in off him... I'm tired of having players on this team with zero offensive ability

 

[HogtownSabresfan]

He'll get one last one year deal -- the best part is a third round pick twice for him

 

[Moskau]

Congrats on his first career NHL fight victory. He may not flip tires in the Summer but that's now one more than Rasmus Ristolainen.

Wish we were happy with this dreck. Good luck in the KHL next year Jimmy.
