Samson's Flow Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 http://sabresdigitalpressbox.com/2014/04/16/sabres-announce-coaching-changes/ BUFFALO, N.Y.

And so it begins. Wonder what the 'reassignment' roles would be. Looks like the Irbe rumors as new goalie coach may have some life to them.

shrader Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 And so it begins. Wonder what the 'reassignment' roles would be. Looks like the Irbe rumors as new goalie coach may have some life to them. They probably have a longer term remaining on their contracts, hence the "reassignment".

inkman Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 They already named a number after him. In the end, isn't that what we're all here for. Now I just need to get everyone on board with the inkman number. It's the number of mm a man can see ones penis beyond his gut. No one wants a negative inkman number.

Campy Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 They probably have a longer term remaining on their contracts, hence the "reassignment". Agreed, but he asked what the new roles would be, not why they were reassigned. Maybe they're on their way to Elmira :devil: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're on their way to Elmira :devil: Maybe I'm reading too much into the quotes around reassignment, but I interpreted that as they won't actually have a role.

Peter Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 TN has the right to hire whomever he wants as assistants. I do not necessarily agree with all the moves. Nevertheless, given TN's strengths and weaknesses, he is going to be highly dependent on good assistants. He may as well hire whom he wants.

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 In the end, isn't that what we're all here for. Now I just need to get everyone on board with the inkman number. It's the number of mm a man can see ones penis beyond his gut. No one wants a negative inkman number. Great....as if it wasn't bad enough I think of Larry David when I get a hair in my mouth, now I'm going to be telling myself, "That's a strong Inkman going on"......

X. Benedict Posted April 16, 2014 Report Share Posted April 16, 2014 Why is everyone so down on Corsi? I was never down on Corsi. If anything, a team strength was goal-tending. Nolan gets his own people.That's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
