Hawerchuk Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Well, at least he screwed the Panthers and Amerks. Too bad he couldn't go to Portland, but you can't blame the guy for the NHL job, duh!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Good for him. That now makes the Amerks completely unwatchable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmwolf21 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Glad to hear that Cunney's moving up to the NHL and the Amerks aren't getting to keep him. What are the odds Waddell tries to trade him at the deadline for an over-the-hill rental? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregkash Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Glad to hear that Cunney's moving up to the NHL and the Amerks aren't getting to keep him. What are the odds Waddell tries to trade him at the deadline for an over-the-hill rental? He'll probably be named to team USA instead of someone like Scotty Bowman.

shrader Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Good for him. It was about time for a step up in his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregkash Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Good for him. It was about time for a step up in his career. I know it's a dick thing to do but would it have been so wrong for the Sabres to ditch one of their assistants and give cunneyworth a job with the team? He knows more than half the roster better than any coach on the planet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But all 3 coaches with the Sabres have been with the organization just as long, if not longer, minus Patrick's half year away from the team.

wildcat48 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 We can officially say now that Randy Cunneyworth will not be heading to the Pirates as head coach of the Buffalo Sabres new AHL affiliate in Portland. Cunneyworth, who spent the better part of the last eight seasons has head coach of the Rochester Americans, was hired by the Atlanta Thrashers on Thursday as an assistant coach, joining former Pirate Todd Nelson who was also hired as an assistant coach.
