and we know how adept this organization is at hiring "the right guy"! 13 seasons strong!!!

Truth! I was hoping he would be "the guy"! He is a good man who can develop young talent. He may just not be suited to head coach positions.

I'll take Gallant as well!! Just give me someone experienced please for the love of God!!!!

He will become the new Head Coach!!!!! Surprise *****!!!! LOL!!!!! While I'm kidding, it does worry me he isn't axed like the others!!!

Unfortunately for the 13th season in a row: It wasn't!

and the Leafs actually got to round 2 last season.

Totally acceptable after a 13 season **** show of mismanagement! Do you even comprehend what an embarrassment this once proud franchise is? Do you even remember the good old days of professional hockey in Buffalo? Completely acceptable from the fan base in my opinion.

I do see more fire in Dahlin. I believe the losing and not making the playoffs is truly starting to get to him.

Way too little, way too late.

he makes some really good points on the broadcast though. I'm thinking this remark was made by Bieksa. Hey, they played the game, they know what goes down behind the scenes.

As the talking heads on SportsCentre said also: "these players are young but have had a few seasons at the NHL level. They now know how the game is played at this level and unfortunately, it may fall back on the coaching". Not sure if it was Bieksa or Luke Gazdic etc. who mentioned that, but it is the truth. Also, it is the GM who filled the starting roster with all that youth and not enough vets if you want to play "the age of the team" card.

Whhoops! My bad, he'll figure it out! It's mjd1001!

It has everything to do with the management group and IT'S OWNER- not to mention a management group that cannot recognize a decent hockey coach or tries to reinvent the wheel with these cutting edge coaching hires that continuously fail. (for 13 seasons now!!!- let that sink in: 13 SEASONS NOW)

What's incredibly silly is 13 seasons of the worst hockey management in professional sports. A complete and utter joke that seems to get compounded with each approaching season. The fan base has an absolute right to be very very upset and demand better. The Pegula ownership era has been completely forgettable and a disgrace. I for one wouldn't mind seeing him give up ownership of the hockey club to someone who actually cares about it. No more platitudes from this owner and lip service.

My question to you is this: Most of us on here have been fans of this once proud hockey club since its inception or since the 70's (such as myself) We have seen wonderfully talented players and some truly magical moments here. A vibrant, thriving arena experience and electricity on game nights. Perhaps you haven't had that? We have had Sabres clubs that weren't all that talented but came to the arena and worked their ***** off every night (The first Nolan era) They were a pleasure to watch and spend money on. It would be nice after 13 excruciatingly long seasons to get that back don't you think? Do you as a Sabres fan , NOT DESERVE BETTER???!!!! Of course you do!!! Demand better!!!! Stop accepting mediocrity or all you'll get is mediocrity. YOU DESERVE BETTER!
