Sabres Fan in NS

Welcome !! Sent you a beer thingie.

Maybe the talking about is if they plan to invite him to both team BBQs next summer.

Who ?? Another Eric, eh !! ?? I have an affinity for the name. Much Love, Eric - AKA Sabres Fan in NS ..

At least the enter key was your friend. Does this qualify as a manifesto? Think it's more like a frustration ventilation rant.

It will happen today.

I still say no.

This is a rather unique approach to fandom. Good on you.

Well, that sucked. Again.

Not directed at you as others have mentioned this too. Why do you say this? It has happened many times that coaches and GMs were fired mid-contract and Mr. Pegula had no issues paying them when they were not doing their jobs anymore. ***** To the poll questions ... No. And not until after the season ends - I actually do not think he will be fired atoll.

This is not a thing.

Drums and pipes all the way, Jack !!

PUT THE KID IN DAMMIT !!

Anyone paying attention does.

Ownership has nothing to do with the actual building of the roster. KA will start to feel the heat from ownership if his plan does not start to show real results.

I don't believe that JBOT did not want to sign Skinner. It has proven to be a good signing - not counting the RaKru years, of course. I don't agree that KA is a *yes* man. I think he was charged with taking the team to the next level after all the failed rebuild attempts. He learned in the Assistant role (or whatever he was before being GM) and has grown with the team. He hired Granato to be the teacher to get the boys to be men as they grew up.

It's always about the roster. Always has been and always will be. Ownership has nothing to do with it. Never has. It's always about the roster. The person in charge of setting the roster and the men charged with coaching the roster. KA should feel a lot more heat at some point than Granato.

Thanks, but I am fine. I am Sabre fan .. strong like bull. Not too strong really and not that smart either, but ...

They were close last time. I feel that this is going to be a blowout win. I would start 6K. SWORDS !! MUST WIN !! GO SABRES !!

By Valentines Day the Sabres will be firmly in the playoff and not look back.

Jeez what a terrible thread. The bickering Bills had nothing on the bickering SabreSpacers. When is the holiday truce?

Is that your Clan Tartan?

I'm calling BS. The cute pooch would be more alert than the other two.

MLB winter meetings. Mark my words ... that guy will end up a Blue Jay.

I think that a big part of the issue is the change in style to a defence approach. The thinking was to try to establish the D system during the season to get it set for the playoff. A big mistake was assuming that the offence will still motor along at about the same level. It didn't and here we are. Playoffs are in real danger.
