dudacek Posted March 17, 2021 Report Share Posted March 17, 2021 16 minutes ago, Curt said: The context you are trying to apply is almost completely lost on me. No Bills knowledge here. I know that they have Josh Allen who has an admirable spirit, and right arm, and I know that they played real good after not playing real good for a real long time. If you aren’t a competitor who bought completely into the team concept and wanted to be there, the McDermott/Beane Bills had no time for you, regardless of what else you brought to the table.

I think this needs to be the way. The Sabres are in no position, psychologically, to make any sort of exception for any player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what...other than the fact that he is a former Sabre? I would like anyone who actually is a former Sabre to not be considered, on that criteria alone. I've always said that, going back many decades. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kma0043 Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Tortarella is in the last year of his contract. Sabres need a hard ass behind the bench. No more “players coaches”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 Providence lost to UMass 5-2, they are Ranked 17th in the Polls so unlikely to make the NCAA Tournament. They find out Sunday, so Nate Leaman might be available soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slack_in_MA Posted March 18, 2021 Report Share Posted March 18, 2021 I voted for Leaman. Not because he's the right choice, but because it's what I think the Pegulas will do. They will take the cheap route again. As long as they leave the Bills alone, I guess I'm resigned to them thrashing around with how to run a hockey team.

FTR she's a scout for Seattle right now. Ok I'd still never want her or a woman as a HC though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Sabres would benefit from a head coach with NHL experience as a head coach, and if the barriers were already broken such that women had opportunities to be NHL coaches, I would hope they be considered for the current opening. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd be entertaining for sure but on this team I'd rather see another guy who has experience like Gallant or BB. If your going with just a assistant with another team I'd rather get Leaman.

Zamboni Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 I couldn’t care less about the race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation... Bring in a qualified, experienced head coach that has won in the playoffs too IN THE NHL. Full Stop. No more experiments. No more “they have been in and around hockey for decades”. No more “they’ve been an assistant for years, let’s give em a shot”. although I have a feeling that’s not who we’re going to get next.

Radar Posted March 19, 2021 Report Share Posted March 19, 2021 Turned on the Instigators. Peters liked the interim coach's post game press conference. So he asks "should we pump the brakes on this head coaching search?" I hope he was just looking to stir the pot to get a response but it didn't sound it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
