That was a bad idea on your part as all I'll say is how much you're overqualified

I see just by reading certain sites that Eichel is to blame for all this. This should turn into another side show. Kid wants to win and when we didn't have that kind of player (s) here people complained, now we do and people still complain.

What's the general sentiment on firing Murray? Seems like Sabres fans liked him but are nonetheless still happy with the firing because they want results. (Which I totally get).

That's where I am. Always liked the interviews, but playing from april-june is more important. Disco dan will be missed by (almost) none

Get a higly reputable former NHL player in here in Hockey Ops.
Drury, Guerin, Messier.

Someone to run the show and provide stability.

Sylvester and snow said Kevyn Adams could be that guy as he's already in a capacity with the Sabres working with the kids.

Add Ullmark high on that list, too. He'll get picked in the expansion unless we protect or trade hime
- jcragcrumple

I would not be shocked if ullmark is protected and lehner is exposed

How today's meeting went.

Pegula: "What is the plan to get to the playoffs next year Tim?"

Murray: "First... we trade these prospects for this one time Senator player that had a good stretch of 15 games once."

Pegula: "Not sure how I feel about that... what else do you got?"

Murray: "Wait... we should also keep Blysma to help motivate Jack."

Pegula: "GET OUT!!!!! YOU'RE FIRED... Good grief."

Murray: "wait... If we resigned Kulikov and Frans.."

Pegula: "You sunuvafemale dog!!! Cash me outside how bat dah?"

Didnt see it coming but not shocked.
He promised a lot and failed.
AHL and NHL clubs both at the bottom of the leagues.
Failed to moved dead weight at the trade deadline this year.

Agreed! And the good news is that the new guy will turn this around quickly! I do believe that and the Sabres will be battling for a playoff stop next year barring major injuries!

- homiedclown

Why? There's going to be better goalies than Ullmark exposed. Rangers have to protect Lundqvist so Raanta will be available for one. Unless the Penguins do something Matt Murray will be exposed too.

They may well be and are good, but they certainly aren't enough, and that's what matters most.

Another good hockey mind, Craig Conroy. Lots of options for the Sabres.

It would be a shame to lose Ullmark for nothing. Whoever comes in has a lot of work to do in about 60 days. We're going to need to fill the GM vacancy fairly quickly
