If murray didn't take that deal, then I can only assume that he thinks Hodgson will bounce back next year.
But I don't see that happening under Nolan...
Maybe he's not as much of a sure shot to coach the team next year as I thought?

I think the blues wanted us to pay half I think too

Various reports indicating a major riff with Murray. All signs point to Nolan getting canned at the end of the season

I think both will be gone if Murray does not get 1 of 2 come draft day ..

We did not sign up to be worst team ever and draft a d


But I trust TM he will make things right on the deadline

The Yotes are worse

I wouldn't mind seeing Todd McLellan come and take over for Nolan, IMO he's a good Head Coach and him along with the Sharks need a change.

I'd be on board with that
Although coaching Marleau & Thornton can make a guy look like a good coach

I'm happy we play them 2 times tank wars

Todd McLellan is a good coach and will get snapped up by a team if an opening comes up if the Sharks can him, Sabres would be foolish not to grab him. They say he's the next best option besides Mike Babcock.

Like the Sabres are any better, look at Babcock he was tossed out by the Ducks.

There's no way Murray is on the hot seat, not a chance. I do agree he could have done more to tank, and that the pressure and ridicule from the media may have made him do less than he wanted...I fear this will cost us, as Arizona is in full blown lose on purpose mode (meaning the coach is in on it)...as opposed to here where Nolan is trying to stick it up Murray's a$$ by costing us the pick

Ya, apparently they got into it over pysyk being sent down
Looks like Nolan might be toast after all

Keep that Fat Pig Ken Hitchock as far away from the Sabres as possible.

I believe it was his first head coaching job, in the early 2000's back when they were still mighty.

That would be a concern for me
We always talk about getting players that have won a Cup... Should we also be looking for a coach that has won one?

like I said before, take Nolan's " Toys " away from him tomorrow and then see what happens.


Nuks were up 5-2 and it's now tied 5-5.

He must have something up his sleeve, I dont know if it'll work tho. Murrays job was to get one of the two this year, and anything less will be a failure. It wont cost him his job tho
