They like Botterill and he only answers to Pegula, which is problem number 1. I didn't hear either would be gone but they both should be. We seem to have a lot of cap space this offseason, Botterill heading that charge is a problem IMO. I know we keep canning coaches and gm's but what else can you do with all these huge contracts, not that easy to dump players.

Problem #1 is Botterill is a poor talent evaluator; especially forwards

It seems he didn't pay enough attention to Rutherford but Billy G did.

The Botterill situation isnt much different than Beane and the pegulas.

Seems to be working well with the Bill's

Maybe the sabres need to be patient with the gm/ owner combo in hockey too.

Patient with the chain of command, maybe not the gm?

no he does not..

But he does get the most out of what he has and that team was gutted in the off season.

Ryan Johnson has top 4 LHD potential.

Tage’s injury was unfortunate however he still have value in either a trade or as a middle 6 winger moving forward.

Colin Miller can be used to acquire help up front or be a fixture on the backend on the 2nd or third pair.

For what it’s worth...
SabresProspects.com guy Kris Baker likes his potential over Samuelsson, Pilut & even Jokiharju

If that were true, he wouldn't be on his 5th HC job.

It's just people overreacting to Mitts and projecting that.
- Lunaion


I get the concern
But even though parallels can seemingly be drawn,
each one of these prospects develop independently (and differently) from each other

There isn’t any correlation between guys even though ppl want to see it

Coaches have a shelf life. Even the best coach for multiple teams.

Or TyMy and Chara. tHeRe BiTH tALl!!!

This team sucks and has had poopty drafting since time immemorial. Ooooh!goalifson scores a few. Real teams seemto find an Olofsson every g-d year. We get Pussssy McGee mittlepoopzzz and al the other love able losers who should be good to compete in 2035.

Idk t know how many of you people watch other teams play like no sabres games, but it is Amazing to see the speed, passing, effort, and hocjey stuff that is on display. Watch the sabres?3/5 of the time I’m on here back reading and not even paying attention to the game because i foolishly spend 39 bucks a month to watch the shiiiiyiest tram ever play. I d rather watch girl hockey at least they try.

I’m gonna MayBe become a Vegas fan. They don’t suck the nutzzz as much as s this team.
