  1. I disagree. A position created for PLF makes it sound like TP really valued his potential contributions to the organization and seeing as how Patty turned down the GM job and TP was determined to have him on board, it makes perfect sense. The very nature of PLF's stature in the game of hockey almost makes him a figurehead by default. GO SABRES!!! Patty is Mr. Wolf. GO SABRES!!!
  2. This made me laugh as well. Can't get this comedy anywhere else. GO SABRES!!!
  3. It was announced at PLF's introductory press conference that the position was created solely for PLF. TP appreciated Patty's honesty about his readiness for the GM position so TP created a new position for him. You do that for guys of PLF's stature after they spent time on your yacht talking about your team's direction. GO SABRES!!!
  4. How does killing penalties effect the plus/minus of a player? GO SABRES!!!
  5. To me, that's far more telling about OV than it is about Myers. GO SABRES!!!
  6. I imaging it's kind of like sniffing around Jaroslav Halak. GO SABRES!!!
  7. It's not that complicated. PLF was FIRED. PLF was then asked to sign the resignation. Happens all the time in corporate America. GO SABRES!!!
  8. There are also rumblings that PLF wanted to do some things that DID require TP and other front office buy-in, but he pissed some people off when he decided not to check with them first and he didn't like it when TP asked why. GO SABRES!!!
  9. Perfectly understandable and rational. We all hope Ted Nolan stays. He does wonders with a young team and that's what's needed at the moment. For health reasons, you may want to let it go in the meantime. GO SABRES!!!
  10. Weird indeed. Really bad form to be enjoying this too much at the height of the turmoil last week. It's great to have fun, but there's also a time and place. And that time and place was a time for class and careful reflection. I get the impression Battista lacks class. This guy sounds like a classic pro sports wannabe. I can only hope TP can recognize this and give Battista a CLEARLY defined, UNOBSTRUCTIVE role. GO SABRES!!!
  11. I agree with this. As I said yesterday, there are worse things than seeing if Nolan can work his magic with Stewart. There is no reason at all for TM to cave on Stewart. GO SABRES!!!
  12. So then, is it safe to assume they aren't worth the emotional investment necessary to continue the assault on the organization? Can you let it go? GO SABRES!!!
  13. How nice is it to see our future #1 pair and co-first round draft picks in that top 10? Thanks 26. I look for your handle every time and I'm never disappointed. GO SABRES!!!
  14. I think that "something" was the last in a string of "somethings" that occurred over the course of PLF's tenure. A straw that broke the camel's back if you will. The camel being TP. GO SABRES!!!
  15. So, it was all about the paint, after all. Just as I suspected. And you thought it was the strawberries. GO SABRES!!!
  16. Go easy on millbank. He's a class act and is just suggesting we take a look at ourselves before we throw words out there. Regarding the bold text, is that true? Did Seattle really do that? Unbelievable. GO SABRES!!!
  17. I just read on HF that the Sabres are at the max number allowed in retaining salary. Someone cited Miller, Vanek, and Pommers. Anyone know if this is true? That could impact some potential deals, no? GO SABRES!!!
  18. Well, if Stewart should end up being a highly coveted FA, then it means Nolan did his job with him and we'd have the inside track on retaining him. Nice problem to have. There are worse things than Stewart getting it together. GO SABRES!!!
  19. Ghost is a writer for The Globe? GO SABRES!!!
  20. I understand and while I don't care to much about Halak one way or another, Nolan just may be able to get the most out of Stewart. GO SABRES!!!
  21. Nothing wrong with Bucky doing that at all. It's his job. But he's just as full of crap as those he accuses of the same when he says he isn't choosing sides. And that make me suspect EVERYTHING he posits as a journalist. GO SABRES!!!
