I'm not saying Milbury is wrong on the points he made, but he sure is a hypocrite. If you have a personal problem with the man, settle it face to face. Taking a shot at someone on national television over a personal gripe is something only a self centered dink would do.
Well Milbury ought to know if Connolly is a dink, he's the dink who traded him and Taylor Pyatt for Mike Peca. He'll go down as the worst GM in NHL history for just these 2 trades:
Chara and the #2 overall pick (Jason Spezza) to Ottawa for Alexei Yashin (who he then gave a rediculous contract the team is still paying off while Yashin is in Russia now)
Ollie Jokinen and Roberto Luongo to the Panthers for Oleg Kvasha and Mark Parrish. Smart, #1 center and a future Vezina nominee for those 2?
Connelly was also thrown to the Wolves. He had no business being in the league when the Isles drafted him, he was undersized to say the least. He should've been sent to the minors for alteast 2 years to get some AHL experience under his belt.
So when he's healthy, he's a point per game player. Not to mention he's been healthy for the whole 09 year and starting now in 10, so he's gonna be more of an asset to the Sabres than ever. That's a decent first round pick my friend.
If you think Buffalo should fire Regier, you're retarded.
@Bdrzewu you do know that not every top 5 pick is expected to produce at a PPG pace, those are rare players. So Connolly has definitely lived up this his billing. Getting a 60 point player in the 1st round is a very good deal.
None of the players Mike traded have ever won a cup though........none.
The curse says that although the trades that Milbury made were bad and would ensure the Isles wouldn't win a cup with the players he got in return, the players he traded wouldn't win either.
Milbury is projecting, people can be great players WHILE being "self-centered dinks". His comment was on Connolly's personality was irrelevant and he just wanted/needed to say it.
When he's healthy and has his hands back, Connoly is one of the best puckhandlers and goal scorers in the NHL. Unfortunately he's spent much of the past few seasons on the injured list.
self centered dink UMMMM maybe this idiot is confusing Tim Connolly with Stefan Marbury..... i mean theyre so similar looking and have so much in common ::eyesroll::
they actually let this guy talk hockey after he single handedly destroyed the great islanders franchise

Millbury drafted Connolly too.
So that one's a double-edged sword
A) He drafted a bust with the 5th overall pick in '99. There is no way ANYONE can say that Connolly has lived up to that billing.
and B) He traded him away for Peca, who in turn put NY in the playoffs before dumping Millbury.
One of the rare positive decisions Millbury ever made as a GM.
And one of the many reasons Buffalo should fire Regier.
Bdrzewu 2 years ago
Fire Regier you must be kidding. Maybe I should run down a short list of the steals Darcy has made in trades in his tenure.
Rhett Warrener in, Mike Wilson out: Warrener bolsters our defense to the Cup Finals, Wilson does nothing.
Grosek out, Gilmour (half his salary) and Dumont in. Enough said there.
Stu Barnes in, Barnaby out: Barnes ends up captain of the team before bankruptcy forces us to trade him.
And the ultimate steal: Gratton out, Briere in, we got the higher draft pick in the deal too

Lets Briere, Biron, etc etc leave...oops

@Bdrzewu Connolly's stats the last 3 years:
07/08 - 48 GP, 40 PTS, +4
08/09 - 48 GP, 47 PTS, +12
09/10 - 44 GP, 37 PTS, +9
So when he's healthy, he's a point per game player. Not to mention he's been healthy for the whole 09 year and starting now in 10, so he's gonna be more of an asset to the Sabres than ever. That's a decent first round pick my friend.
