(waits for the Miller is the best option, enroth is an ahl goalie, hackett is a bum, too much blah in net, bring back hasek, tank for the first overall pick, I can kick your ass, glue factor, vanek floats, videos, beer, music, wings, and whatever else becomes the flavor of the minute.) |

I'm about to go to lunch with a colleague. The only thing on the agenda? To pat ourselves on the back, and talk about how much smarter we are than the general population. |

I still remember the day that everyone called us haters for not having an Orgasm when Lafontaine was hired...... That worked out so well |

I like Murray but this is still 95% Darcy's organization.
It's gonna be a while until we see how good Murray is |

Tis true. I have a really good felling about the future though. I think 2013- early 14 was rock bottom for the Buffalo sports scene. |

This team with the assets it has, even though they suck gives me a 100x better feeling than I had with Regeir say 2-3 years ago |

I have a cautious optimism. There was excitement about the prospect pool in and around 2008 as well. |

Difference is we no longer have a GM that is trying to save face every year |

There are players that are good enough to mask a front office's shortcomings. Nobody really turned out to be that. The only one that may from that group is Myers. Regier had his significant deficiencies, but ultimately the players on the ice need to be great, just like a quarterback in the NFL. |

We do however actually have the assets to get someone like that.
Whether it's with our draft pick or trading a pick or 2 to get someone like that we still at least have the ability finally |

We also never drafted players that were in a position to be great. Like the Bills, we were constantly drafting 9th-12th. No one believed Gerbe or Ennis would be a Toews or Crosby figure. We just liked who they were. Every July 1st we waited for that star caliber guy and he never arrived. |

Murray's definitely in a good spot. However, much of what he has to work with is from the prior regime, which, like you said, means that it will be a long time before we really know how good he is. I would think a lot of people could put forth a semi-decent team in a couple of years with this kind of arsenal. That being said, I just can't bring myself to bank on "potential" anymore. |
