On Don Granato. I would have to honestly say that I always liked him, but he had no answers and started to repeat himself when poor efforts at critical times were prevalent.
He had No help in that Coaching staff either to help find those answers. It really was a failure in every stage. Well except maybe Goaltending with UPL and they fell into that.
They need to fire Marty Wilford, their horrendous defensive coach. Matt Ellis needs to go as well. What a joke, he couldn't play hockey or coach. Just because they kiss Terry's ass doesn't mean they are good coaches. Terry just needs to sell the team already.
I cannot believe people are even thinking Lindy would make a good coach. He had plenty of time to win the Stanley cup and he couldn't do it. He can get a team into the playoffs, however, that is it. We will be back to the same mediocre team as before. Quenneville or Gallant would whip this team into shape. Hard ass coaching is what these kids need and they would see results almost immediately.

There is a reason why Ellis is here. Can’t say why

Quenneville? You mean the guy that let someone sexually harass his players during the hawks cup runs?
Yeah he’s never coming back.
Gallant stinks with young guys players. Ask the rangers how laf kakko and other kids developed. Oh wait they didn’t

Quenneville has not been reinstated yet by the NHL

We already know…. Ellis and Adams play tummy sticks…. More buddy buddy fuzzy Kumbaya country club bullpoop that cost us Peca and puts an inexperienced stiff behind the bench.

Quenneville was told that they "the administration would take care of it"...he is trying to coach a team to win cups and someone should have taken care of that for him. He is a good coach and he probably regrets he didn't follow up on that...but when someone tells you that they will take care of it, you typically think they will. At any rate, since he hasn't been cleared to coach by the league...it really doesn't matter. As for Gallant, when the entire team is young, I think he could adapt. Ruff is washed up and should be a GM, not a coach. The players in their exit interviews are begging for more discipline and longer practices. The team needs a tough coach to whip them into shape. The country club doctrine has not worked as well as the untested NHL coaches.

Is the curse finally lifted?!

This just in, according to a report from Buffalo based NLL (National Lacrosse League) reporter Michael Karvelis, the Buffalo Sabres are being sold by owner Terry Pegula.
Karvelis reports that ALL of the Pegula's professional sports franchises besides the NFL's Buffalo Bills are being sold. This means that the Sabres, the NLL's Buffalo Bandits, the NLL's Rochester Nighthawks and the AHL's Rochester Americans are being sold.
I hope this is true, but probably not. - FireRuff
It's bullsh¡t, Tim Graham said he's just selling the Knighthawks, because why does he need 2 lacrosse teams?
They will have a 1st line and a PP. Guys will put up points. That alone doesn't make them average or above.
Top line was well below average last year and is a huge concern heading in to next season. They didn't have even an average 1st liner last year. - Lunaion
What...?
Please explain.
What is the best way to identify an above average top line, if you believe points are deceiving?
