Now, more than ever... In these difficult times...

Party pooper.

Oh, this hat makes a special statement, though.

The shipping is $8, which is why I'm not doing this: I might stop in the New Era store though.

Can someone who knows photoshop put together a pic of this hat on Krueger's head?

I think it's possible that Chris Koch is trolling them.

Right? They could be coming off of three Cup-winning seasons and headed for a fourth, and this still would be the worst idea possible.

Well, I'll stand by not blaming Botterill for taking a bold and unconventional decision. I'll just blame Adams for not ending the experiment. Botterill shot for the stars, missed, didn't even land on the moon; time to end this.

That's cool. Is there live attendance?

I can point you to an entire website full of people--not necessarily all of whom are Sabres fans--who do not believe that Terry is a meddling schmuck. www.twobillsdrive.com

You took a quote conspiracy theory and turned it into some serious fake moon landing stuff. Meanwhile, I have to keep visiting this site every 20 minutes to see if Krueger is fired yet. That is funny. And I know exactly when and where that photo was taken!

Incoming...

If only...

They were in the finals when I lived there.

Well, now we know that airplane wifi works in stowage. How are the pepperettes?

No, I can think of several other explanations (all of which I don't agree with, but none of which have to do with cost-cutting). All but the last survives Occam: 1. No replacement in mind. 2. Adams scared to fire a coach because he's new at his job. 3. What the kids call "optics"; how many coaches is this team to go through? 4. Players not named Skinner reportedly like him. 5. He is, of course, a Svengali.

I didn't even say they are keeping him at all.

Find me another Sabres owner that has spent like this. Heck, find me another NHL owner other than the pension fund in Toronto and the Dolans who have spent like this. Money has not been an issue since the Pegulas rescued the team from Golisano and Quinn. Strategy has been an issue.

$8M on Taylor Hall says you're wrong. (Or would you rather get into Okposo, Leino, Ehrhart, or any of the other huge contracts the team gave out that we now regret? Or O'Reilly, perhaps?)

Money never has been an object since 2011, with the exception of the possible but unsupported allegations about the O'Reilly trade. I doubt they keep him because of money.

And Xavier Laflamme.

That's why they should vote for it like they used to.

I recall it. Schoeny was not the best player on the team. But a great captain. Peca was not the best player on the team, but a good enough captain. I do think O'Reilly would have wanted to stay if he had been wearing the "C," which he should have been.

Yep. Check the baggage for venison pepperettes and Molson XXX. And possibly dudacek hiding out in stowage.
