Jerry Forton: Sabres Head of Amateur Scouting
HoosierDaddy replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
The interesting thing is that neither Murray nor Botterill was a bad hire at the time. Both had earned their promotion by working in the front offices of successful organisations. In fact, both were a lot more qualified than KA in paper. But neither could do the management part of the GM job. People skills matter. -
What is your Grade for the Sabres Draft?
HoosierDaddy replied to GASabresIUFAN's topic in The Aud Club
Cs get degrees -
The tweet from the MHL indicates that he’s playing there next year. It says “Victor Neuchev is maintaining his shape in full order. How many points will this machine score in the new season?”

His nickname has to be "The Mosquito."

The announcer says "he's unlikely to find a shot here...he shoots it anyways"

What's the thinking behind drafting players at 18? It would seem to me that drafting at 20 would make this whole thing less of a crapshoot.

I remember being at a game when I was a kid where there was a brawl at the end of the pregame skate after the refs left the ice. I can't remember who the other team was, but it was in the Aud and had to be sometime between 1985 and when I left for college in 1992. Does anyone remember this?

I don't hate the Stars anymore, but I my hate for Derien Hatcher knows no bounds. He played for the Flyers too. And John LeClair shot the puck through the side of the net and it counted. That was the year after No Goal, if I recall it correctly. And Neil's hit on Drury. Yeah, I hate those teams too.

I just wanted to post this, and since some said Caps I thought this was as good a place any any:

Bruins. As a Buffalo sports fan I hate all teams from Boston. They also are the only team that has been in the Sabres division during all the realignments that have occurred. The East, Adams, Northeast and now Atlantic divisions all had Boston. The Leafs were in the Norris and then in the Western Conference for a time in the 90's.

Granato tried, but at some point the guys look around the dressing room and see that they don't have the horses to compete so the effort drops.
-
The scary thing is that for the first time in my life, I don't care. I'm numb to the losing, just like KA and TP.

He only has 20 professional games. 13 in Vegas and 7 in the AHL.

Chicago Blackhawks Sexual Assault Allegations
HoosierDaddy replied to WildCard's topic in The Aud Club
To put the full context to this, that meeting took place on May 23, 2010. That was the day of Game 4 of the Western Conference Finals where the Hawks swept the Sharks. 17 days later, the Hawks lifted the cup. Not to say that Quennville was right to be concerned primarily with team chemistry but you can see where he was coming from. -
GDT: Tampa Bay @ Buffalo - 10/25/2021 - 7pm EDT

So i’m supposed to find a negative here? -
I didn’t realize how much hated him until watching this game. I mean, I’m openly pulling for ROR over him.

Duchene trade happened on 11/5/17.

Is Don Granato the best coach the Sabres have had since Lindy Ruff?

GDT:The Season Opener! Montreal at Buffalo 10/14/21 7pm MSG, WGR550
HoosierDaddy replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Anderson played well. The lone goal that he gave up was not on him. FWIW, I wouldn't really call him "no name." He was a starter in this league up until last year. He's just old, so it was a strange signing. If we had signed him 5 years ago when he started 40 games, winning 25 of them with a .926 SV%, I would have understood the move. Signing him when he ad one foot in retirement was a bit of a head scratcher. -

Dreger: Eichel situation may be shifting, multiple teams involved
HoosierDaddy replied to Hoss's topic in The Aud Club
I did a little research, and what I found was that all the NHL teams are required to insure their top 5 contracts with the BWD Group, a NY insurance company. There has been a lot of speculation that it's the insurance company that is preventing the ADR surgery. Since it's the same insurance company, would any team that trades for Jack have to actually assume that $50 million risk? If that's the case, expect the return to be really small. -
