  1. When you ask for, and get, a new, aggressive GM, this is part of the deal.
  2. Fine, and, again, if the hit rate is that bad, then the Sabres are doomed. It will take years and years to get out of the basement, if they do at all. Someone somewhere has a spreadsheet saying it's a good idea.
  3. Aw, shucks, golly gee whiz, guys, what do you mean everyone doesn't love the Sabres? That makes me sore.
  4. Assuming your prognosis is correct, then the rebuild is doomed to fail before it starts taking off.
  5. I agree he looks rejuvenated, and I know he's a Nolan-type of player, but he still hasn't been scoring. I think the Sabres are stuck with him the duration of his contract.
  6. I think the outlook on next season depends on what happens between today and sometime next October. We, the Sabres fanbase, are pretty up on our prospects and AHLers...if Murray creates a stew that looks like it needs just another season to cook, I think folks would be happy to go through one more throw-away season knowing what's to come. Obviously, the Sabres would be happy to let the 2015 draft conversation continue unabated as well, as it would give the next season a definitive context.
  7. Aud, that's one of the reasons I don't like the guy. He thinks his callousness "works".
  8. I think I just read or heard that Brodeur is starting tonight. Looking at websites, listening to radio.
  9. How far we have come, or, how low we have sunk...
  10. Potentially, yes, but not assuredly unless the Sabres gobble up another 10 or so picks. This is the part of the McDavid stakes that bugs me greatly. I dig the stock-piling of picks for next year's draft, but unless the Sabres fortunes turn around, they won't win the lottery despite a cache of picks. Or, they'll announce Seattle is ready to go in 2015-16 and they get first dibs.
  11. Everyday is a day something can happen. You go out there, Tiger, and make something happen!
  12. Don't stop him, he's on a roll.
  13. Is it being indecisive, or is it fear? A subtle, but important distinction, I think.
  14. I heard they made an offer, but it's only good on weekends.
  15. "The Sabres, who are never dull...at least you can say that about them this season..."
  16. For the lack of talent, you have to appreciate the all-in effort here in the third.
  17. Weber is a nice guy, but his instincts suck.
  18. They have to; they sold their souls to the Bills. It's sickening.
  19. Who said anything about not being competitive? The rebuild relies on getting the right players together on the same roster. That alone will take years.
  20. Give it a few years. Wishful thinking.
  21. What does Rolston have over Nolan that makes this comparison worthwhile?
  22. Yes, these are marvelous. Might I offer up an alternate for the less enthusiastic among us?
  23. What does that matter? The longer the rebuild takes, the more job security. That doesn't make sense. I DON'T think Nolan is pondering whether or not he wants to coach the Sabres, I DO think Nolan is pondering whether he wants to coach in the NHL.
