Great guy on and off the ice. A true family man.
Nothing else really matters.
I am a fan of his and wish him well in his life after being a player.
I agree with @Weave that is is likely the last few games of his career. He will either finish as a Sabre or he will be given a chance at the cup. He will help a team in that regard.

“Hey look at me, I’m a little bitch who hacks at ankles.” Yeah, I don’t think you want other people seeing that.
The only people who he wanted to see it and who saw it were the Sabre players.
"Hey look at me. I'm a little bitch who hacks at ankles and you spinless weinies watched me do it and did nothing about it".

I'm certainly open to a different veteran coach with a successful track record, but I don't know which guy meeting that bill is available, willing to come here and better than Lindy.
I am not OK with bringing back DG.
Would you rather bring DG back, or make Lindy the HC?
I would rather keep DG at this point. I don't think coaching is the biggest issue right now.
@Eleven has always said it is about the roster. I agree with him. It's always about the roster.
The Devils GM has not done enough and they have had some key injuries - the coach is the scapegoat and is fired.
KA has not done enough and the Sabres have had some injuries and the team decided to change focus on the defencive side of the game. It has taken a while, but things are starting to come together.
DG is not the problem. Some of his assistant coaches are not good enough.
Bring in Ruff if they want, but not as HC.

It's quite a day indeed when I find myself enthusiastically endorsing a post generated by discount AI.
But I would swap DG out for Lindy in a heartbeat.
BTW: Lindy got the Devils to a franchise-record 112 pts last season and their first playoff advancement since 2012. Then he lost 2 of his top 4 D last summer and he lost his #1D (Dougie Hamilton) for the season on Dec. 1. His best player, Jack Hughes, has missed 16 out of 61 games with injury, they've only gotten 28 pts out of major acquisition Timo Meier, and they've gotten crappy goaltending all year. And they're 1 under DeLuca .500 with 21 games left.
He can still bring it. In fact, I freaking guarantee that if the Sabres fire DG and bring him in, they will make the playoffs next year.
Post of the month for this part alone.
I'm not convinced about the rest of it, but I'd be willing to give Ruff a job with the Sabres - can hockey teams have a 'bench boss' like in MLB ?

The whole point of a slash like that is you do it when no one is looking.
I think the message is designed to be seen by the other Sabres on the ice and bench. I don't believe for a second that the other players did not see it or at least were told about it.

No. Rookie. GMs.
Hence my 'well maybe not better yet'. Yup - no Sabre GM named Ruff.

Not as coach.
President of Hockey Operations I would allow.

Or better yet make KA President and Ruff GM.
Well, maybe not better yet.

There is a chance and as long as there is a chance I will say that the Sabres will make it in.

@Buffalonill@Sabres Fan in NS for the last question you both said yes. Do you know Grantato’s job is in jeopardy now or that if the bottom completely falls out that it would be in jeopardy?
Nope. I think if the Sabres finsih well he will receive a contract extension in the offseason.

Seems like I'm either the only *smart* one or the only *dumb* one so far.

Avenge Housley?
We always have to avenge someone and he was the only Jet that popped onto my head.
-
Why is it manditory for me to select someone to be worse when I don't think any of them will be worse ?
-
More and more each game. He is earning a fat contract. Not the standard 7 x $7M contract though.
I still say 5 x $5M, maybe 5 x $4.5M.

Trade Deadline Predictions - Who Comes, Goes, and Who Stays?
in The Aud Club

Maybe KO. Maybe Girgs.
No major moves. No player of significance coming in.
I think it's a stand pat deadline this year.
