Why should Granato and the assistants be brought back?
Mr Peabody replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
If I’m the owner I’m torn between team make-up and coaching. If I fire the coach and nothing improves it’s on the the GM, right? A new GM would demand to hire his own coach and now I’m paying for two unemployed coaches. I’d “meddle” and talk to Clifton, Byram , and EJ and compare and contrast what’s going on here versus the winning orgs they came from. Then I’d sit down with GM and coach - separately. One option is to move Donnie into an exec role of player development. -
I really, really hope it was Girgs saying he’d just as soon not make a move for a couple of months duty.

GDT: Knights @ Sabres 3-2-2024 7pm ESPN+ Hulu
Mr Peabody replied to Shoot da Puck's topic in The Aud Club
Playing much more aggressive with Mitts. I think he was deferring the shot to Tage too often. -
Yeah and I just checked and Washington has enough cap space that it’s doubtful they’d give up too much to move him.

Sabres Have The No.1 Prospect Group - The Athletic
Mr Peabody replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
I’d characterize our prospect pool as wide and flat rather than deep. A large amount of the same type of player at forward - so much so you couldn’t build a balanced NHL team. -
Was Donnie’s on camera outburst before, during or after the bench penalty. I didn’t see what was going on when it was called. And I did see MT’s post game interview. He was poised and very well spoken. Many of the items he discussed that make Fla so good are what we are lacking (team mix of youth and experience). Telling that he said the Sabres were playing chippy - good for us. Their strength was the difference. Much quicker to the puck and winning board battles. They owned the neutral zone.

I get weird dreams but so far nothing with the speech. It’s not simvistatin is it?
-
I agree 100% and I think the poor play is driven by fear. Fear of making mistakes and it gets self fulfilling to the point you get second guessing everything you do.

Years ago I worked for someone who said something that sticks with me today. He said “no one comes to work with the thought that “boy I hope I can do a lousy job today””. So what’s wrong? If they knew and had the ability they’d fix it, right? While he was here Eichel said we needed more experience and more toughness. We still need that.

The players were reacting to the Fire Donnie chants, not the boos. I’m okay with that and if it had stayed in the locker room we’d likely never know. Whether you like him or not, the Fire Donnie chants are in bad taste and I’m sure it meant a lot to him that the players thought that was over the line.

Further to my previous post here are some things I’d ask. 1. Probability of Tage, Jeff, Alex, and Dylan repeating their scoring? Impact if they don’t? 2. Probability of Devon leading our goalies to NHL average or better performance? 3. Probability of EJ and Conner raising our D to league average or better? 4. Probability of key players (name them) playing 70+ games. 5. Probability of Improvement in D offsetting insignificant drop off in O. 6. Probability of physical teams taking advantage of our young team. 7. Lastly, probability of Mr Peabody having another glass of Cab vs impact of waking up tomorrow without a headache. (hint: high probability high impact). TBH, number 6 was my biggest worry going in and it hasn’t been as bad as I thought (but still not good).
