WildCard Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) First the trade comments and now this beaut from Nolan's post game, the tread on the tank's wheels are getting thin. Clever little dig by Teddy here "They have 10 Olympians and world-class Olympians on their team," Sabres coach Ted Nolan said. "For the first 5-7 minutes of the game we were kind of just watching them. They're so powerful and so quick. I mean, this is a team that's designed to win the Stanley Cup."-Ted Nolan Edited February 6, 2015 by WildCard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Am I missing something. How is that a dig? Every team should be designed to win the Cup. If you're not, what are you designed to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunomatic Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 We are in the process of designing this team to win the cup. Its not static. Its evolving. I think what Ted might have meant was that that team is ready to win the cup.He should have said that team is the polar opposite of us. We bad, Thems good.

WildCard Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) Our team is specifically designed to lose, and we're the only team to do such entering this season. In every other instance, a team is designed to win as much as possible. Even in a rebuild, you can do so without beginning a season with tanking. Come to think of it, when is the last time a team besides Buffalo entered a season with the sole intent of a tank? Not one where they sold of assets and tried to get the best pick they could from a ruined season, but one where the design was to lose.

gomper Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Nice....a two page long GDT. Wonder if there will be a one pager by the end of the season. I cannot wait for April. Lol! I can see it now: April 4th......"Sabres head to Long Island to take on the Islande.......um never mind". End thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have said it a thousand times before but it is the way out. I wish my job allowed me to be a complete f up for two years with no accountability other than to step up to a podium and announce a players name that any dipshit could do. I am tired of hearing Murray talk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am tired of hearing Murray talk. Well technically Murray only did it one year. When he got here last year we were in full on tailspin mode. That said I think of Murray right now as a cook. He has almost everything he wants simmering in his crockpot to make a delicious meal, he just wants a little truffle oil before he is ready to eat, until then it simmers. That said this does suck. 31 more turds. We just have to finish the drill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have walked in my front door numerous times after work to smell the crock pot simmerimg with something my wife threw together. Usually smells great. Often tastes like shizit. Hope Murray is a good cook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsixspd Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 He's not even on the list Seems to make his fair share of mistakes and misplays on the ice. Even if he's average, he has no place in the future of a team that's going for a Cup win in 2 to 3 years. Cut him over the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Year three he needs to start seeing a return on investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
