nfreeman Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 This probably means that DDB was GMTM's hire, not TP's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jsixspd Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Bylsma yes - but Murray??? Shocking! I don't know that Bylsma was Murray's fault - maybe it was? Maybe Murray backed the wrong horse? Maybe he really WAS a Dan Bylsma supporter? Murray had already made a lot of mistakes though.... all those toxic contracts for low performing d-players was the worst.

LGR4GM Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Oh it's going to happen. There is a big reason they were both fired. Congrats everyone, we just became the Kings I got bored reading your post... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDS Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 I tend to agree, he seemed to be moving us in the correct direction. Honestly, I had a hard time disagreeing with almost anything he said. He was refreshingly honest, direct and informative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pastajoe Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Wonder what will happen to assistants, and Lambert in Rochester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksabre Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 This probably means that DDB was GMTM's hire, not TP's. That's all I can think. That GMTM actually liked Dan that much and decided to go down with the ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabills Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 I'm guessing Pegula insisted DDB needed to be fire and Murray didn't like that and Tim went down with the ship. I think this almost has to be it. It happened day 2 of them talking. If they wanted to fire Tim and Dan outright they could have done that yesterday.

Jsixspd Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 This probably means that DDB was GMTM's hire, not TP's. Yep, thinking the same thing. Murray kept defending Bylsma's inane 'system' too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildCard Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 This probably means that DDB was GMTM's hire, not TP's. I bet Murray stays if Lombardi isn't available. What do Rex, Byslma, Lombardi and Suter have in common? Recognition I got bored reading your post... We're basically selling our soul to win If we win Honestly, I had a hard time disagreeing with almost anything he said. He was refreshingly honest, direct and informative. And he drafted well and made good, solid trades BTW, you know who loves Evander Kane, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SabresFanInRochester Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Wow! I am shocked! Taking the heat was admirable, but when you take the blame and criticism, sometimes it comes back to haunt you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 You know what the worst part of this is? Now that we've removed both of them, we'll never be able to definitively end the Byslma vs Roster debate :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsixspd Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 If Murray was the chief and head of the Bylsma Fan Club, and couldn't see how bad the team was doing under Bylsma, then he needed to go. Great - 2 wasted years - 3 if you include Murray. Back to square one. Hockey Heaven, or Hockey Hell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsb Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Good job Pegula. You fired the wrong GM What a ###### moron that guy is OMG, you and the rest of the Crusaders get their wish and you're still moaning and groaning. Not 100% sure this is a good move or not but no doubt we're on to a new course, hopefully Pegs gets it right this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freester Posted April 20, 2017 Report Share Posted April 20, 2017 Byelsma didn't surprise me but Murray is shocking. Giving up a first for Lehner was a mistake and giving big contracts to Moulson and Ennis was a mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
