Eleven Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 On the prospects: Nylander needs a big summer; his issue is strength, which is easy to fix. Baptiste has played well. Bailey was up and down. Needs consistency and he needs to figure out his role and we need to help him do that. Nelson played well as an NHLer and then got injured. Transition puck moving defenseman. Whether he's ready next year is up to him. Guhle has a great chance to be here next year. He's what we need. (Try telling that to Bylsma!) Ullmark is tremendous. Trajectory is good. He's on the right track that many goalies have taken. Austin was a major surprise and handled himself well; not ready for a full-time job but he put himself on the map. Quote
RonHextallsShoulderPads Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 what bothers me is GMTM is so self aware about what the fans' gripes are, and yet he's happy to just deflect. Quote
clintwestwood Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 Dan's getting fired. I think so too. Put me in this camp as well. Quote
WildCard Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 Sounds like he wants to trade Ullmark Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 He is pissed about talking about Okposo like PISSSSSSED Quote
Thwomp! Posted April 12, 2017 Author Report Posted April 12, 2017 Put me in this camp as well. I still say he isn't. I think people are reading into Murray's statements what they want to hear in regard to the coach. Quote

TrueBlueGED Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 what bothers me is GMTM is so self aware about what the fans' gripes are, and yet he's happy to just deflect. Such is the nature of press conferences. Quote
Mustache of God Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 Really hit a nerve re: Okposo there. Quote
Thwomp! Posted April 12, 2017 Author Report Posted April 12, 2017 Sounds like he wants to trade Ullmark I think he just helped Vegas select Ullmark. We really need to unload a bad contract or two and Vegas is the easiest way. Talk up Bogosian, Tim!!! Quote

RonHextallsShoulderPads Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 you can't have a guy up here evaluating his own performance. it's unnecessary. telling me Jack progressed. against what? year 1? against his peers? Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 "Would be interested in bringing Gionta back." Said 1 year deal would be best. Quote
sabills Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 what bothers me is GMTM is so self aware about what the fans' gripes are, and yet he's happy to just deflect. I'm actually ok with that. His job is to win however he sees best, not listen to the fans' every whim. This is the exact reason GM's should not be making decisions about how the game is played, because they only care about their team's wins, not about the "product" on the ice. Quote
WildCard Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Who is the guy that asked about Okposo? Edited April 12, 2017 by WildCard Quote

SabresBillsFan Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 These team needs a new head coach and some defenseman period. Quote
Eleven Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 Leadership is buying into the program and being time and following systems - Murray Pounding the being on time thing, all conference long. I wonder if Sam's gone. Quote
LGR4GM Posted April 12, 2017 Report Posted April 12, 2017 Plans to start talking to jack on July 1. Jack wants to be a leader and take more of a leadership role, no talk about captain. He talked to jack of coaches and systems (talked to all the players about same thing). Jack was frustrated about not being in the playoffs. Murray promised to do what he can to make the team around Jack better and be a playoff team. Quote
