Fan Appreciation Kniggit lines up with Complaint Thursday. Coincidence? I think not. If my job was to right about the Sabres my nerves would be worn pretty thin by now too.

Actually $52 mil from playing.

Yeah I read that article earlier today and it sounded no more informed than a typical Sabrespace post.

Not today, PA. Ask me again tomorrow.

My contention is that he won't even get it started.

If they stay with the same owner they're morons. And I bet there will be no new arena, not even close, by 2028. They way I see it, if Meruelo manages to get the arena built then they will give him the expansion franchise. If he hits delay after delay and spins his wheels, they'll look elsewhere. I'll believe it when I see it.

Also- He doesn't even have the land to build on, Scottsdale doesn't want to build the infrastructure. I think he would have to clear those hurdles and have a stadium well into construction before they would even consider giving him a franchise.

It would make sense rather than having the team play in Mullett which the PA hates. The NHL doesnβt want to leave a Top Ten Television Market if they can find a suitable arena. This would also give other potential owners time to get there bid in order If the Yotes leave the Phoenix area, I don't see the NHL expanding back into that market with the same ownership. The ownership is a large part of why that team has been such a ***** show; why give him another franchise? Would they expect a different outcome? Why would they?

Why should Granato and the assistants be brought back?
Doohickie replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
I think the top young vets still need the support of top older vets (i.e., guys more talented than KO or Girgs) to lead them through the downs of the ups-and-downs of the game. If they stay down too long, they lose whatever growth they'd previously shown. The two poster boys on the team are Dylan and Tage. I worry that JJ, Quinner and Benson will be sucked into the vortex if they don't bring in some real high-talent leadership. I think that ship has sailed, but I wish they'd never traded Marcus Foligno. I think it's likely the Mitts trade was a mistake too. -

Doohickie replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
That will not happen. When you replace the leader you don't leave him around to be 2nd fiddle. Not in any business. No but you could kick him upstairs if you wanted to keep him around. Special assistant to Kevyn for Player Development or some such. I think the only way that makes sense though is if TPegs agrees to move to a new HC but won't sign off if it means paying Donny for doing nothing. -
Sabres @ Dallas - Tuesday, April 9, 2024 - 8:00 PM (EDT)
Doohickie replied to Sabres Fan in NS's topic in The Aud Club
For decades it's been a universal truth: When the Sabres skate hard and don't give up on the puck, they succeed. When they don't they fail. We've seen examples of it even this season, but not consistently enough to win... consistently. I think it was time for Lindy to go the first time around, but I think he could up the Sabres game with the current roster.
