Radar Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 I know Wildcard that you seem to be heavily invested in an anti Bylsma campaign but in the long run it may be best to let the Murray/Bylsma stay put awhile longer. This way if change is made it maybe new GM and that would also mean new coach. That way we sort out who has the most responsibility if things don't improve. If we are not making it player wise then we need more than a new coach. That means New GM which would mean coach change as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PASabreFan Posted April 11, 2017 Report Share Posted April 11, 2017 I like it, although Russ' nickname needs work. Russ "ticket booth" Brandon The snake oil salesman Marketer in Chief Russ "Con Artist" Brandon or just plain old F*** face I think it was DeLuca who referred to him as the refrigerator schedule magnet designer. I'm going to start a New Owner thread at this point I keep hearing about Terry and the Bills trying out quarterbacks. I can't stop chuckling. In my Sabres worldview, I guess it's the best place for him to be. But i can't help but shake my head. What does he think he's looking at? Balls the size of canned hams. Maybe that's how you end up with 5 billion dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been thinking about Byslma's system. It seems like it'd be pretty easy to defend playing a 1-3-1 defense. Two Sabres D are in the zone around the dots and the three forwards are up in the neutral zone. The defending team can send one forechecker in, play man on man in the neutral zone or line up 3 on the blue line, and have one D back to pick up the chipped in puck. The Sabre forwards generally aren't hitting the line with speed, so the back D can fetch the puck and make a relatively easy pass to get out of the zone. Am I missing something? Randall, can you put together a dozen pics to show I'm right? :) Edited April 11, 2017 by MattPie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Preferrably one not named Sutter.) I dunno..Lombardi kept allowing the Kings to get older by bringing in veterans even when it was clear to everyone else that team needed to get younger... He basically allowed them to "fade to black" by not bringing in younger talent...the older vets just kept aging until they could no longer maintain...

The most recent only 3 years ago. The Sabres core is much younger than what was there in LA. I'd risk the team aging past their championships after they've won the championships.

Jsixspd Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Isn't Pegula supposed to speak with Murray on this season? Well right now he's out looking at QBs. Anyone else think if he was going to make as big a call so firing Byslma, he'd at least be here for it? Not necessarily - he fired Wrex via telephone.
