Let's stop trying to cast JBot as some kind of hero or martyr. The organization and scouting department he built was a failure. He made a terrible coaching decisions. He deserved to be fired, even with Adams whispering in Pegula's ear that he could do a better job.

How many decent defensive prospects does that make? Osburn, Strabek, and the two Russian guys in Rochester, plus R Johnson?

Anybody want to translate what Lance is trying to say there? He expects Adams to stay in his current job as a figurehead? He expects Adams bumped up to PoHO? He expects Karmanos and Ventura to leave? Other?

Hopefully Rochester keeps winning. We've got a lot of trade pieces there we can spin into vets. A deep run will only up their value. This is provided KA will actually take on the $$$ associated with veteran contracts.

In the end something you said rings true... its not just the Sabres I would give up on but the entire sport itself... I am sitting here north of Tampa with a lightning team to root for and I dont even watch the games... I have pretty much moved out of hockey with only packed boxes left in the attic... and my first game was the Schoenfeld Cashman zamboni doors game... I fear if they run this back I just dont have the care in me to care... Pegula has literally killed the love of my favorite sport

😳

Right on... Housley is my least favorite Sabre off all time... when he started berating his team for not going to the difficult places on the ice the abject hypocrisy of his mouth made me ill... Richard Smell Ick was another one... JJ was bad, but Kenny Sutton has got to be on that list... maybe Derek Roy as well... They actually might play for Marty just to get him to shut up LOL... Razor would be an interesting person to listen to after games... lol...

I think our internal shuffle thinking isn't giving Terry enough credit. How about Marty as head coach? Rob Ray as GM?

Damn, I was trying my best 😁

At least you didn't throw Housley's name in there uniting the entirely of the most hated triumverate of former Sabres this kid has known.

Clearly its because new GM Joe Juneau (Terry says he's a rocket scientist, you know) is trying to get Dick Smehlik signed on as zone exit coach before they announce anything.

More than 24 hours later. The autofellatio continues. NSFW

Which unfortunately doesn't really tell us anything new other than the meeting between the 2 has already happened. (And considering NOTHING official has happened yet; expecting no news is bad news...)

The 6'1 ", 182-pound Plymouth, Mich. native was a steady force for the Phantoms on the blue line, finishing fourth among USHL defensemen in scoring with 41 points in 55 games and finishing third on the team in assists with 31. Osburn had 19 power-play assists and 20 power-play points, tied for third among league blueliners. The Buffalo Sabres' fourth-round pick and Wisconsin commit finished the regular season with a +10 rating, helping the Phantoms to the second-lowest goals-against average in the league at 2.69. Osburn was named to the All-USHL First Team on Monday.

All the smashed sticks, I get it. I don't mind seeing it after a playoff loss. Dahlin is the only one that seems to care enough on this team.

How tall and big is he?

Watching the hurricanes win in overtime makes me miss Sabres playoff hockey.

Face it. We're cursed.

I would not disparage the word stupidity by comparing it to our owner lol ... stupid isnt a choice it just is... this man is willfully negligent and makes up for it with the brashest level of extreme incompetence and then washes it all down with a big old cold mug of Silence... I can think of no other situation in modern day sports where the owner has this level of abject lunacy in his decisions.... its literally almost like you actually have to try to be this bad...

Interesting. I watched a lot of pro wrestling as a kid and enjoy listening to people (insiders) talk about the business of pro wrestling as an adult. I especially enjoy the vernacular that has grown up around pro wrestling. With that context and in light of the observation you've made above, I'm now getting to wonder: Was Beane cussing out the WGR guys a "work?"

It's like the head executioner calling the execution squad to get in a circle and start shooting. How do get out of the circle of futility? Expecting the same incompetent people who placed you in that suicidal shooting formation to properly line up the shooters without wounding themselves is a delusion at a stupefying level. It's incomprehensible to think what this bogus owner has done to this franchise. Most new owners learn from their mistakes. This large boat owning owner doubles down after making a mistake. Stupidity at a grand level

I know radio stations are in the business of self promotion but their current level of self indulgence is obnoxious. Everywhere I turn it’s someone affiliated with the station hyping up Beane teeing off on them. Just weird.

B.c its True of every GM. The ones that don't draft a good QB usually are not GMs for long. Bill Belichick wouldn't have been on the Patriot for as long if he didn't get lucky and draft Brady.
