I am all for bringing in babcok as long as he does not get too much control and if the plan is not working in 3 years, a switch is made

Well ya gotta assume Babcock and Murray and Pegula know exactly where everyone stands before the hire is made. Whatever control Babcock does get will likely be hashed out before he signs. Or has already been hashed out.

Marc Crawford has a cup

He may be the worst coach ever to win one

What about Mike Keenan

Seems extremely generous. But I guess I can agree with the assessment.

- homiedclown

lol.. Torts wishes he could fit into his shoes.

Terry Crisp?
- homiedclown

I didn't mention him because he was an expansion coach.

Not winning in TB when your best players are essentially the afterbirth from the rest of the league isn't totally on you.

yeah but he lost his job in Calgary pretty quick after winning a cup

That ought to adjust any issues Ms. Babcock has with living in Buffalo.

he lived in Detroit i think he can deal with living in Buffalo

Terry Crisp?
- homiedclown

I forgot all about him BLAh

I dont think highly of Dan Bylsma

Seems extremely generous. But I guess I can agree with the assessment.

Rangers and Boston(he was a mid season replacement) are the only teams he wasn't there 2 or more.

lets be honest he didnt live in in detroit

Went to the playoffs in all three of his years there though.

Also remember the Flames/Oilers rivalry was at it's peak then too.

Not beating the other team in the playoffs was bound to get you the ax.

He was 144-63-33 in Calgary.

lets be honest he didnt live in in detroit
- hubie

well he also doesn't have to live in Buffalo either

- homiedclown

yup...don't think he'll get too much control right now...methinks the pegula's laid out the gameplan and murray's a pretty stubborn coot

edit: waaaay late

Imlach made it work.
- TheSabresTaco

He did?

32-63-25 Record here says otherwise.
