Demoted

They are a professional hockey team, pressure is not an excuse.

Should be an easy win now that the playoffs are out of the picture.

"Pro sports is full of could be's" and the a Sabres are an exception of "never will be" They got this guy right where they want him. Hard to tell if you are trolling or not b.c you probably said the exact same thing last season.

No one circles the playoff drought like the Buffalo Sabres....

Biggest Sabres issue... Terry Pegula. I bet a different coach would have them in the playoffs which is the first step into the Stanly cup... Granato cannot even get that far.

Hope he enjoys Coachella this year. https://heavy.com/sports/buffalo-bills/bills-stefon-diggs-coachella-team-workouts/

Depth...

Already booked a hotel for the parade.

I love how a thread goes from getting a new coaching staff to pegula selling the Sabres. Apparently the Sabres will only ever win if they are no longer in the WNY area.

Every year the Rochester team becomes more popular than the Sabres.

Must win for what? First player with 1000 games to never appear in a playoff... so glad to have a team that could help him be in his own category.

Whoops he let you down again.

A team that wins.

One game makes up for a while season. This is grand.

It makes me wonder why they couldn't put this together more often...

Sabres had an easier time getting in the playoffs last season and still couldn't do it.

Who cares about headlines... they mean nothing. Only winning will cure the headlines. Worried about headlines when the news media is an absolute troll fest to begin with and doesn't even matter in today's day. This is all just made up excuses that are not real. Media-doesnt matter been bad for years Embarrassed-doesn't matter been Embarrassed for years Stress-the guy owns many different companies I doubt his stress would be much different. These are lazy excuses.

Way past embarrassing when you hold the record for the playoff drought. There is nothing more embarrassing than that so every other move should be no problem. The most popular thing about the Sabres is the Rochester Americans.

I am so glad the players like him which has resulted in zero playoff appearances. If that is the reason then it's time to sell the team off.

Everyone knows it's not the players, look no further than the Head Coach. Send the head coach back down where he belongs. Until this team gets a real HC I cannot question anything these players are doing or being told to do.

The water isn't that cold around 48 easily survivable.

There is no excuse 4 years is WAY more than enough. Everyone you trade away gets better and wins... expansion teams have put together winning teams in quicker time.

In the long run? The season is almost over he been doing it for a long run.

How many will be traded away next season?

Desperate...
