Thwomp! Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 Please get the next one right. I'd still like someone experienced overseeing the whole thing, including hiring a coach, but that does not seem to be what we're getting at this point, if ever. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthEbriate Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 <Arttu dragging us across the floor in a net, torso and limbs all a-jumble > Of course I feel better! I'm still taking more of a hiatus, but seriously... all I had to do was step away from the Sabres for like... 2 losses in a couple days... and the solution presents itself? I should have taken a break earlier. I can't believe he's gone. (I just lost a whole planet of people to that ball, and you're moping about one old guy who self-sacrificed so he could talk to you in your brain??? Selfish! I'm totally going to fall for the a-hole pilot now.) Hey, we're not out of the this yet. GM Sheevyn still needs to firesale the rentals for the playoffs, get what he can, and the players need to start looking like they've played competitive hockey before again. And... hopefully the owners will get an NHL coach, and NHL AGM, heck, even a President of Hockey just to provide the vision. Here they come! cue the music <Tie Fighter Attack or Here They Come> depending on your source material. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall Flagg Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 The Pegulas have now hired and then fired 5 NHL head coaches. The combined record of those coaches post-Sabres (including Krueger's NHL-less future) is and will continue to be 0-0-0. We need to hire a good coach this time. 6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kong Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) If the reason for existence of the Buffalo Sabres is to win a Stanley Cup, then should the Sabres even exist? Edited March 17, 2021 by Kong better idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just put a bunch of faces on the bottom of some food bowls and see which one it picks. I'd contend that the Pegulas have already hired several dogs (apologies to dogs and dog lovers everywhere).

That was not on my "This will get him fired" flowchart The Devils iced the puck after being pinned in their end for almost 2 minutes with us needing a goal to tie it up. They were spent. Ralph called a timeout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miles Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 i really liked RK, even if they were having a terrible season. I really hope RK lands on his feet quickly, and i really hoped the sabres would have put him in a different position in the org. i think he really has something to offer, even if it wasnt the head coach 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RK will be fine no matter what happens moving forward.

Sorry, what I meant is that, the way I read it is them going with an interim implies to me they aren't going to sign/don't really like the currently available guys. So to me he's not fine as an interim because I didn't want an interim - - - 18 000 posts...on the down low Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
