But just run out the lines that feel comfortable. Have fun and see what happens. Don is Ted without the fire. And the winning. Winning? Even if you do Ted a favor and don’t count his last two years, he was 7 games over .500. Count all seasons and it’s Ted .458 to Don .444.

Ted took two franchises to the playoffs and won at least one series. It's very hard for me to fathom Don doing either. After Buffalo I don't see him coaching again. Ted has had three stints as a head coach. And he won the Jack Adams. Senator, I knew Ted Nolan... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know that he does make adjustments in-game and they work. We’ve talked about it in-game. When he put Okoposo on the top line it completely changed the Chi game. Maybe not making an in-game adjustment is sometimes his in-game adjustment. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nfreeman Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 I guess I think Power-Dahlin smacks of desperation, unless they really trust the other pairs to hold up their end for 33 minutes. That doesn’t seem wise. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthEbriate Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Are we suggesting that Ted Nolan, or any other coach, would immediately whip the youngest team in the league (featuring at 41 year-old goalie to skew that age), with this goaltending overall, rash of own-goal-deflections, or missing its 2 most responsible longest-tenured PK/D-men while also having a 3rd PK/D-man playing on one foot, and also missing 1 game from their best player into a winner in the last 4 games against... ...@CAR, @TB next night, ARZ (winners of 4 of 5 and riding white-hot goalie Vejmelka who in November is 4-0 with .950% ), and then the hottest team in the league VGK with 9 wins in a row and an "release your anger!" Jackikin Eichwalker? This 5-games stretch (with Boston) is a murderer's row at this point in the season (not just who you play but when you play them) for an injured-D/cool-goalied team. But it's not the end of the season and it's not an indictment on the coach or a cause for fan overreaction. They'll right the ship in the next 6 with Joker back and maybe even the Muel along the way. (And hopefully win tonight as well.) 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fairly certain of two things; 1) give Teddy this team and they would challenge for worst overall 2) give Donny prime Hasek and they would challenge for the division 4 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TT is unstoppable and Dahlin ain’t lying down for anyone. Go Sabres. I always enjoy the Hockey Fights Cancer broadcast even though the Sabres quite often do not show up on that night (like last year). This is a must win. The losing streak has to stop and this game gets us over 0.500, so this is the right night for the boys to band together and dig deep. Boston loves to beat us and they will have a huge crowd on hand, lets shut them up. Big weekend for Buffalo sports starts tonight. Let's GO Buffalo!
