I'm kind of intrigued by DG in a playoff series. Needing a win would he really wait until the 55 second mark to goal the pulley? And if he'd do it the way every coach since Pat McDougal (1921, Saskatoon Trappers*) has done it, what explains his philosophy as Sabres coach to date? *Very possibly made up

I've never been swayed by the "who's out there who's better" argument.

Not the one I wanted but will have to do...

Of course he is.

Your problem is you're too reasonable. It's probably why you and Dodo never go to bed mad. You should consider yelling DONNY'S A WINNER! He might be. Let's see. As to whether he deserved a shot, I kind of doubt he gets the job anywhere but Buffalo.

Barrie Moore.

It doesn't matter. We're in the weeds. LGR claimed that Don has won at every level in hockey. My retort was incredulous for the obvious reason. Unless one is prepared to argue that Don has won at the NHL level, there's nothing to see here except PA Can't Be Right About Anything.

Lgr: He's won at every level over a 20-year career. Lgr: Outside of the NCAA and at the NHL level YET, Granato has won. Lindy: That's a joooke

Wonder how this will age.

I think you're right on the click angle. And from just this one video, it does appear the host does not put on a sweater and become a homer. From my POV, however, it's important. I might want a breakdown of the 2023 24 Bruins, but I really don't want one from a guy in Bs jersey.

It wasn't my assertion. Go after lgr for his false claim. 2-6-2 is not a collapse? Everyone buried them. Even ole Doc Brawndo, who pronounced a time of death. I don't really care about yet another heroic run to 9th. The 10 games after KA wouldn't help a team on the cusp was telling.

So he hasn't won at every level he's coached at. Glad we cleared that up.

Lol

So what? It's beside the point. I mean, you might even get guys at the tail end of their career who want to be here for curious reasons. A soft coach. No media pressure. Light pressure to win. Close to home in S. Ontario. Nice way to make a living.

I didn't say players don't want to be here. I said I am certain some of the veterans and maybe even some of the kids are not happy with KA. You should check your notes again. In the immediate aftermath of the deadline, the Sabres went 2-6-2.

He's won at every level? OK. Have a great morning!

The hope comment is nonsense and you know it. But it's perfectly in line with what you've become. Eleven doesn't know what happened to nfreeman. I wonder the same about you.

This is another case of you being a pod.

To complete my vent, I am certain any number of veteran players agree with me. No, I have no way of proving it. These are highly competitive men who want to win. That major needs go unaddressed can't sit well. Circumstantial evidence: the team collapsed after KA sat on his hands at the deadline.

You're splitting hairs I can't afford to lose. I'm sure you're hirsute. Your granting puts us on the same page. The question would be whether anyone who endorses the job Adams is doing wants to win. If you want to win in three years, I'm not sure that counts. This is professional sports. We haven't seen a homemade aluminum foil Cup in 12 years. Also we have an untested kiddie coach who doesn't know how to or when to call a timeout or pull a goalie. I truly despise the stance of this organeyezation.

Wanting to win and making the difficult choices and the risky moves to win are two different things. The board is very much Kevynized in that respect.

I mean, not really going out on a limb.

He doesn't need to wear the jersey of the team he's talking about. George Will doesn't drape himself in the Iranian flag when discussing the Ayatollah.

I don't see why that's an "of course." Fans by definition have less credibility.

I know right. The Sabres might win something. Gross.
