PerreaultForever Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 I'm fine with firing anybody and everybody at this point (coaches, players, owners?) but I don't get the Boudreau love.

Probably because he’s made the playoffs every single season he’s been an NHL HC. That would be a huge improvement over what the Sabres currently have. 1

Eichel: No, I hurt myself in New Jersey. RK: When I mentioned it, the specific region that actually took him out of the game, the first time I had heard about it was warmup, but that he was injured that he came out of that jersey game injured was clear to me but it turns out there were multiple lower body injuries and whatever, i mean it uh, the point is that he came out of jersey hurt, uh the uh the warmup call uh and the region that ended up being aggravating it was his first time back in his skates since that game uh and it changed the game and now were working on his health and getting him fit again. 1 2
GASabresIUFAN Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 Fire RK by tomorrow and hire Julian. Enough.

Curt Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 2 hours ago, Thorny said: And there we have it. So Krueger didn’t know of Skinner/his agent’s comments, didn’t know Jack was hurt... Pay no attention the the man behind the curtain! Nah, he’s just a liar. 4
Kruppstahl Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 Paul Hamilton said on the WGR-550 post game show, TWICE, that Ralph was simply lying about Eichel's injury and that he stands by it. Krueger's double speak and fast talking when questioned in the PC was embarrassing. He is not a very good liar. This guy is not just full of *****. He is fantastically full of *****. 1 2
sodbuster Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 So on Thursday, Thompson played while Skinner was a healthy scratch and the excuse at the time was Eichel got hurt in the pregame skate. If we take Eichels presser at face value, then RK sat Skinner KNOWING that the team was shorthanded. That's indefensible, and that's why hes lying.

GASabresIUFAN Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 4 minutes ago, SDS said: $7M worth? Yes. No choice he has lost the team. Don’t fire him outright just relieve him of his coaching duties and move him elsewhere in the organization.

Don’t fire him outright just relieve him of his coaching duties and move him elsewhere in the organization. Lost the team? How was that determined? Moving him within the organization still means you’re paying another body to be at the Sabres coach. Given the events of the past year do you really think this is going to happen? 1
Billznut Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 4 hours ago, Radar said: I would be shocked if he's fired. I’d agree with this. Not because RK doesn’t deserve to be fired, he definitely does. But moreso because the Pegulas aren’t smart enough to realize yet that RK is a horrible coach and this season is over. Whenever it finally dawns on the Pegulas that RK is in over his head, that’s when it will happen. The Buffalo media will accelerate this process now that RK has been proven to be a liar. I’d expect the media to become more merciless on RK from this point on. 1

Promote the assistant or Roch coach to Interim HC who is willing to open up the offense allowing the creative players to create and who will implement a system where guys go to the net to screen, and try to bury rebounds. This way you don't pay an extra body.

Also don't see his style as much different to Kreuger's. He got fired a lot and his replacements often did better. Not my choice. I'd look at Babcock before Boudreau, but my choice would be Gallant.
steveoath Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 I know some of you don't like Chad's number crunching approach to hockey analysis, but the latest episode of xBuffalo pretty accurately sums up Kreuger. https://www.spreaker.com/episode/43680658 1

"He's a salesman! (Krueger). He's a salesman! But eventually if your product sucks it doesn't matter how good of a salesman you are." Sums it up nicely. 1
Kruppstahl Posted March 1, 2021 Report Posted March 1, 2021 "The more he gets backed into a corner (with a question), the longer and more rambling his answer." Perfectly sums up his BS response about Jack getting his injury in NJ and not the pre-game skate. Lots of words, most of which contradicted other words, ultimately saying nothing.

The chances that this core leads the team anywhere with any coach at the helm if they have turned on 3 coaches is pretty damned concerning. Huge red flags regarding the core in that room IMO. 4

Jack needs to be put in his place... too much of a prima dona.
