Win for Hannafin!
-
I agree.I'm going to my first and only Sabres game tonight. I want a win, screw the tank for tonight. Let Zona finish this for us.
-
Cameraman and/or flufferWhere does Tim Murray fit into this scenario?
-
why?Probably that he was an UFA and wasn't signing here for any offer TM was willing to make.
FYI I really like winning so I will continue to root for Arizona. It is safer!
-
Enough female Johnson watching. There are specialty videos for that sort of thing.
-
Can Makarov keep it together for 60?
-
Wake Up Sabres! Don't wait until the third period.
-
Can Zemgus move to wing?Which unfortunately won't be good enough if the centers are Reinhart, Girgensons, and Eichel. He's just too slow.
-
yes really. There are players that have talent and those that don't. Sometimes, actually, most times, IMHO, it takes repetitions for that to come out. Nolan likes the certainty of the known. That is Mitchell will do what is required 80% of the time. Grigorenko, 60%. Give Grigs more reps, meaningful ones and his talent will yield more results, but you have to nurture the talent. Nolan doesn't invest those minutes. He only played Larsson and Grigs regularly, when he had no choice either due to injury or GMTM trading away his mules. The results you see now are not of of Nolans doing, but evolution. To end this incessant chatter, I think Nolan will be back if we do not get Mc Eichel. He is the perfect placeholder. If we do get lucky there will be more interest in the job. Upgrade and move on.
Those meaningful reps are ones in the AHL. Players when they are called up have to be ready. They must earn meaningful reps at the NHL level.
I like the Detroit model. Keep them in the AHL for several years. When they come up they can really contribute. I respectfully disagree your evolution theory.

natural selection really?I'll pass. For I remember it was you who sold the idea that it was noble to suffer on earth for rewards in heaven. But we do not need rewards in the hereafter, but bread now. But bread is the fruit of foresight and toil, not unrestrained passion for the moment,but a calculated plan for existing beyond the moment. Don't blame me as the inquisitor, look within and ask did I task humanity with godlike expectations when I designed the very frailities into their soul?
No but apparently Flynn and Mitchell, both who do not see the ice with any regularity were deserving of minutes that Larsson and Grigorenko are now eating. Would you trade Larsson for Flynn? Mitchell? Johan and Mime could have been geetii g valuable time when we.went 0 for January. Nolan is channeling desparation, I don't his hand in the development of any of these guys. I see natural selection.
-
Ellis and Dalpe were not here when it mattered I think. Was Mezz supposed to be a first line game changing defenseman ever?Why? Because a bunch of journeyman like Ellis, Dalpe and Mezzaros are playing for their next meal? If they played like this when it mattered I would agree. This is white noise.
-
Under what pretext?
I want him back as head coach.
-
Nolan deserves to be back.
-
I want the worst team to finish 30th. If that is the sabres so be it. A win makes us even with a game in hand. I have been calling for Murray to be fired yes. I have had a little change of heart listening to his interview the other day. I loved everything he said. I wish he had said it sooner.Either you want McEichel or the W. At this point there are no style points. Besides you wanged GMTM fired.
-
I really wanted the W. I feel bad for the sabres. Every game is an away game. That really sucks for them. I want Mc Eichel just as much as anyone but not this horrible way. Sad state of affairs.
-
Where has this been all season. If only we could have had this team in January.
-
Out of curiosity, who has GMTM, or Darcy for that matter, traded away that you still wish were here?
The point isn't who I want stil here but who have you replaced these players with.
-
I'm OK with a GM over-scouting the biggest pick he'll ever make.
Maybe 20% of his dreams should be about Connor?
-
I completely agree!Pro-tanking or anti-tanking is not the point. He sounds like a schoolboy with a man crush, not the GM of an NHL team. And he has options to watching Hodgson and Ellis - there is a major collegiate hockey tournament going on and our GM is watching McDavid for the 50th tine.
-
I bet you Murray is the only GM who lusts for McDavid. What a sicko.
He is the only guy who stripped his roster down to nothing to finish last two years in a row. Everyone wants McDavid but no other GM would say that publicly.
-
It's not like Murray chose the tank, he kind of inherited it from Darcy. The poop boat was too far down the shart creek at that point.
He's a blunt, honest scout. I love him, and wish he would share Connor dreams with me. And I highly doubt all people that would classify themselves as "anti tankers" hate Murray.
I only speak for myself not all anti tank people. I only wanted to use that as my personal reasoning.
-
Murray should just shut up. Anti tankers like me want him gone so bad. I wish he would keep his Connor dreams to himself.
-
Comments like that should get him fired!
-
It seems like you're completely ignoring the situation the team is in and the obvious plan that has been in place for years now.
We have all suffered through the plan. If I am wrong so be it but that IMHO is how I see Murray. He let's the coaches coach which is a good but is not very good at working with coaches in any other capacity. He sits on his perch dreaming of Connor.

Can Zemgus move to wing? I see McEichel, Samson Grigorenko and Larsson as our centers. I would to see our second line Moulson, Reinhart, Zemgus.
