The playoff TV schedule probably won’t be released until a few days before it begins.

Dude flat out sucks. Are NHL teams clamoring for the great coaching prowess and intellect that is Ted “no system, just try hard” Nolan. Where’s he coaching now? Even Poland didn’t want him back Bahahahahaha.

President of hockey ops. Sabres lack one. It MAY help this franchise.

Meh ... throw him a bone for a few games. Then get him back to Roch. and help the Amerks win in the playoffs. Nice paycheck for a few games.

Yes. If I knew about the industry, company, sport, product very very well. If I knew about fracking and the oil industry very well. But when It came to hockey I was only a fan and not very (sports) business saavy, I would hire people who really really know the sports business well. I would solely rely on their expertise, wisdom, and experience to run my business well. And if they didn’t, I would replace them with people who do/can. I wouldn’t tell a doctor what instrument to operate with just because I own a medical facility. I would rely on the doctors knowledge to successfully complete operations. I wouldn’t tell my GM who to hire if I didn’t know what it takes to be a successful head coach. Just my opinion on the Pegulas getting involved in hiring coaches.

That’s just not how all companies or in this case, sports franchises work. Some? Sure. Never said a generalizing word like none (or all) to begin with. Agree to disagree...

I think (in part) it’s also a case of the owner(s) making coach hiring decisions instead of leaving it entirely up to GM’s. I love the Pegulas, but they need to stay the F away from coach hiring decisions. They are too involved on that aspect.

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying playoff hockey, no matter what team it is. But for me, that’s where any “fandom” ends. Blue and gold or GTFO 😁

T - Minus 8 games ....

All things that can be fixed in a short time.... with better coaching.

Listen! Montreal Poutine is nothing compared to Toronto’s! Screw that! Montreal’s is the best in the worrrrrld! I hate you! Your mommy doesn’t!

Are you reading words I didn’t type? Shame shame... Maybe that’s the source of your confusion.

For a decent upgrade? Hell yea. I also don’t mind seeing what he looks like 30-40 games in. This small sample size is warping people’s common sense ... haha

What? You mean the coaching staff don’t have a answer for MTL push in the 2nd? color me not surprised.

Nice behind the scenes peek 👏
