Dear Max,

It's over. Time to divide up the china, pick who get's the dog, pack up the stuff and part ways. It's been a fun ride in your time here, but I finally feel you've overstayed your welcome. It's not you it's me. The team has moved on from your freewheeling style, and we don't have room to truly let you grow. In past years we had players here that we could count on to make up for your mistakes and give you ice time against the other teams 3rd and 4th liners, but now we need someone on the lower lines who is committed to defense and responsible when in possession of the puck. I know this is not your game, and trust me, I LOVE your game, but right now it just doesn't fit. I really don't want to make this anymore awkward than it already is, so I would appreciate it if you just left quietly. I know you will be better off for it, and wish all the best of luck. Soon you will find a new team, a new sweater, and hopefully new success, but I just can't see you working out here anymore. Thanks for all the memories, and it's been fun, but like I said it would best if you just left quietly.
Sincerely,
Darcy

Hey Max, I hear ex-Sabres thrive in Philly. Whaddaya say?
hah, very nice! I couldn't agree more. I've had it with Max and I just get more angry with him every game. One nice assist every 5 games doesn't make up for the mistakes that he makes oh so often. He has to keep taking penalties because he looses the puck and then has to take the player down. Please trade him Darcy, please....
Take Kotalik with you! Guy is up and down from shift to shift and that backpass to nobody last night with a minute to go was a joke.
Time to go Max. Who could we get in return? Sabres fans KNOW what we need, but would we get it?
you guys are talking about max leaving and taking kotalik why the heck is vanek still here and im sorry if you think he is the future of this team but the fact the for 10 million more we could have kept drury and briere burns me yet. Specially after vanek is on the ice for 30 secs and dusted doesnt even attempt to skate. as much as i hate to say it the 5 yrs of rebuilding is apon is but it doesnt start with max
