Sorry, hes a bum. His nickname should be the "baker" for all the turnovers he produces. Over rated IMO, not an NHL caliber Dman. Convert him to a winger, but he is not a Dman.

I like the hire. Don seemed to be able to coach these younger guys who in turn wanted to play for him. Time to reshape this team. Get a #1 goalie, trade Jack and get some new pieces that want to be here.

After the Sabre's loss to Pitt on Thursday night and some cheap hits along the way, Coach Ralph Krueger stated in his after-game presser that the "team needs to respond physically on Saturday" for some of the hits during the game. Now, exactly what players on this team does he think can or will respond? We know Collin Miller will respond. Who can go after Chad Ruhwedel after his dirty knee hit? Tagging Aston-Resse again would be nice. Sending someone after Crosby would send a message. But this team lacks size, grit and at times heart. Not sure who the Sabres can find on this team to do the dirty work.

Well the Sabres having gotten skunked so much recently and no fix for goaltending in sight, I say we lose 4-1. And I pray to God RK gets the boot tonight. Enough is enough, he has to go.

Does anyone else get the sense from watching JE play that he seems uninterested? Honestly, if rumors were true that he is unhappy in BFLO, then it is showing. He just doesn't seem to care enough on the ice. Turnovers, mistakes, missed shots, his overall play suggests he's not trying because he doesn't care. Or doesn't believe his efforts with this team will result in wins. It may be his way of either playing into a trade or forcing a change in coach. As lifelong fan of this team, and hockey in general, I do not believe RK is NHL material and needs to go now. This team needs a coach who can get the players attention and can install a system that benefits the players on the ice. There is too much talent on this team for them to be struggling this much at scoring. I don't have an idea of a good replacement coach, as I have honestly lost a lot of interest in the NHL of late with the Sabres poor play.
