It's really hard to not spell "coaches" correctly. How do you screw that up?
And are you kidding me? The guy fell into the perfect team at the perfect time.
Are you kidding?
What was Briere before Ruff?
What was Vanek or Pominville? How did they do later? Campbell? McKee?
He had all-stars, because he MADE THEM all-stars.
How many Sabres in the 2005-06 All-Star game? And then the following year?
He made that team what it was.
FOUR times in the "final four." FOUR. He took a team that couldn't score twice, and no, it's not all Hasek.
Oh, believe me, I'll find you that coach. He was here, in Buffalo, for years.
You all were wrong. Won't admit it. But wrong. We're working on number 6 now, right?
Don't be fatuous, Jeffrey.
If that hit were on EIchel and there was no response, the board would have been full of "Sabres are weak" posts. We saw it happen 9 years ago with Miller, when the Sabres TRIED to respond but couldn't because of the linesmen.
