    This is garbage. If you're trying to make a name for yourself, in any field, you need to pay your dues. This includes doing all the work and not getting any credit. Does this guy have so much of an ego he thinks things should be automatically handed to him? Isn't this why he preached to the youngsters?

    No, I just want to get past the bad taste in my mouth that's PLF (and maybe TN if he keeps whining about what happened to his dear friend).

    Where are the trades? For a GM who said "everyone" is available, shouldn't we be seeing more activity? Is he going to jam them all into his schedule on Wednesday?

    For all those suggesting that PLF was bored at work, couldn't take the daily grind, believed his job was done, or some other benign reason for leaving, this is wrong. TN clearly spoke of a "situation" that occurred and insinuated a dear friend should be treated that way. This speaks of an incident(s) that happened leading up to the resignation. I don't know if this was due to the trade or not. It was no secret Miller wanted to leave and TM was trying to shop him. Both parties made this clear to the media. Everyone and their grandma knew what was coming. Now, did this "situation" arise before the trade was consummated? I think so, because PLF had been AWOL for over a week. I think it must be something non-trade related.

    I think something does stink here. The current execs, including Murray, want to say there was "no discord, he just resigned", but what TN is saying speaks otherwise and speaks it loudly: ''Right now, it's not about my contract. It's about the situation that's happening,'' Nolan said. ''It's about what's transpired in this organization, what happened to a very dear friend. And we'll leave it at that.'' What "situation"? What "transpired"? And what "happened to a very dear friend"? TN better speak the company line or he'll be next to go. This organization needs no bickering, finger pointing, or discord right now. Period. If he can't keep it together and act like a professional, maybe he needs to go to.

    Seems like ages ago.

    This is fine. Captains in this team usually get traded, so this may work out for the best. It does seem to indicate, however, Drew isn't getting traded any time soon.

    PLF should've took this up with RM instead of throwing this little fit. RM made it very clear over the past few months he had no interest in re-signing with the Sabres.

    Yes there is. We'll lose out on another 1st ;)

    Yeah, I wouldn't want Nolan leaving either, especially during the season. I also can't tell how one go about low balling a coach that's been out of coaching for 10 years? A 3 year extension sounds like a great offer. I don't think it's going to be top dollar, nor should it be, but something middle of the road.

    What did you think, Patty friggin La was going to run our team? When I first heard he was hired, I nearly threw up in my mouth. That's like Jim Kelly being hired by the Bills as GM. Friggin ridiculous. He has/had zero knowledge of how to scout players, deal with the CBA, or run a team. Zero. This is addition by subtraction. We now have an actual organization being run by experienced hockey people.

    No doubt. This, paired with what he did in Long Island, speaks of very poor character. I really don't think anyone can feel bad about a person like him leaving. He can kiss any future as an NHL team executive goodbye. Very poor decision making in his part. Don't let the door...

    That's only if Pegula knew about the trade. What if TM didn't tell him beforehand?
  14. kas23
    It must be tough for Nolan. He's a guy whose job it is to win, but the front office's aim is to further dismantle any winning potential from the team. I wonder if Nolan and the FO are not on the same page.
  15. kas23
    He could be stepping down as a result of Nolan getting the boot. Wouldn't like either situation though.
  16. kas23
    Yeah, I don't see a problem with this. He's the GM, he needs to delegate responsibilities.
  17. kas23
    I do have to say though, despite being in last place, its a very exciting time to be a Sabres fan.
  18. kas23
    I didn't watch the Miller and Ott press conference, was anyone else there (PLF, Pegula, Murray)? If not, it would be extremely strange and concerning PLF wasn't there to break the news and wish them farewell.
  19. kas23
    Maybe one of them saved money on their car insurance? Being serious, I have a feeling Pegula is somehow involved. Considering Pegula seemingly randomly offered the GM job to PLF, despite him having zero experience as one, I have a feeling Pegula is meddling somehow.

    It's just that by not categorizing a player as "good", you're insinuating he's not a good player or even a bad player. Nevertheless, potato, potato, Ehrhoff should be dealt at the deadline. Following what the Sabres are doing, we don't want good players, we want players who currently resemble good players and will be good players in the future, if that makes any sense.
  21. kas23
    They may definitely give up a good player, we see this all the time. What they won't give up is a good player currently on their roster that could help them have success in the playoffs. That said, they will give up good players/prospects currently somewhere in their farm system. In terms of good players currently on a teams roster, I don't think this is what the Sabres covet, either now or in this coming offseason. They want young players that will make their splash 1-3 years from now.

    A lot of women also call me Big Stick. However, it has nothing to do with my last name.

    I agree, mostly, but simple math tells us we aren't going to see a huge number of 1st overall picks amongst the scoring leaders. There's only been 10 of them picked over the last 10 years. They're rare birds, so nothing much statistically can be said about them.
  24. kas23
    Awesome. He should then fit perfectly into the Tank plans for next season.
  25. kas23
    I highly doubt anyone knows this but Garth Snow. And even he probably doesn't know either. He has to see what position they get, what their draft board is, and how the draft is unfolding. Supposedly by a few picks before. And I'm just regurgitating something I read on here.
