  1. I'm going to barf if he fills his staff with anybody named Ellis or Wilford.
  2. Maybe this means Darcy Regier will be coming back as GM too <grin>. I wouldn't mind seeing Lindy lure Scotty Arniel to join him behind the bench.
  3. Sorry to hear this, hope you have multiple new options to pursue. Good luck!!! I worked my entire career for "corporate America"....long believed it was the best option for my family and I. At the twilight of my career, I really grew to hate how corporations are run....every decision they make is for the "mega" shareholders, not the employees. Nothing matters except short-term profitability. Employees do not matter anymore, despite the false lip service they spew.
  4. It proves Donny's system was garbage to me. I'd like to see the Sabres change from zone to man-to-man....IMHO it is an easier defensive system to play.
  5. The more I listen to players reacting to a coach being fired, the more it sounds the same (i.e. theme of accountability, etc.). This one was kind of interesting when Berube was fired....I don't put too much emphasis on this (one way or another). https://www.yardbarker.com/nhl/articles/blues_star_has_ice_cold_response_to_firing_of_hc_craig_berube/s1_13132_39674250
  6. GMKA needs to deliver a strong message that he needs to bulk up this off-season. He is still too thin to be effective where the team needs him to be.
  7. You want "accountability"?!?! Tuch is the one who would be best at delivering that message to his teammates, both on and off the ice. I felt he was the most natural leader of any of the players I've seen on this team.
  8. Was hoping he would show something in the final quarter of the season....but he failed to impress. The only way I'd consider keeping him is if he agrees to bridge deal at $1.5 million AAV.
  9. Somebody else that might be worth a look is Todd McLellan. He said "no thanks" before, so maybe not a possibility, but he's out there.
  10. Maybe on paper, but as it's been stated many, many times....they play small. The only exception is maybe Benson (playing bigger than his punching weight) and maybe Clifton (from time to time)....and Dahlin sometimes as well.
  11. Not saying he has yet....assuming he and KA connect once the Canes season is done.
  12. Feels like another Babcock scenario. Rod uses a Sabres offer for leverage with the Canes....and a bigger paycheck.
  13. I hope somebody asks him why they didn't fire Matty, Marty, etc as assistants
  14. If there is even a chance of this happening, then I am hoping the Amerks get thumped badly in the playoffs...even embarassed. I don't want this team having anything to do with any of its remaining staff....in Buff or Rochester.
  15. Hallelujah......but somebody please walk me back from the edge of the cliff of Appert (HC), Ellis and Wilford next season.
  16. He's a coward....can't stand the heat in the kitchen
  17. Sorry, but DG at the helm does not achieve anything other than the possibility of getting into the playoffs (which I still doubt would happen). Only a complete change of coaching will result in a successful rebuild (meaning a true Stanley Cup contender).
  18. Elsewhere....Red Wings with 2 quick goals to tie the Pens......I think the Wings have nine lives this season.
  19. Looked like Greenway and Tuch both grabbed Wilson during the scrum....doing their jobs!!!
  20. It will be part of the myriad of excuses that GMKA and HCDG will cite for falling short of meeting expectations......and will justify no changes for next.
  21. Washington seems totally gassed....not sure they have enough energy to contend for the final playoff push.
  22. How many more Matty Ellis powerplays do we have to endure? Please God, make it stop!!!
