Brawndo Posted March 28, 2021 Report Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Could we see another add to the the front office besides Jason Karmanos as AGM? Friedman mentioned Rick Dudley and Scott Luce as having ties to the Sabres on a Podcast recently. Or is it someone like Jim Rutherford? Edited April 14, 2021 by Brawndo 1 2 Quote
Thorner Posted March 28, 2021 Report Posted March 28, 2021 Nice! Getting my hopes up. Watch Chad have this first, again. Honestly quickly becoming my most trusted Sabres twitter source/news breaker 4 Quote

Trettioåtta Posted March 28, 2021 Report Posted March 28, 2021 Have we also reported the changes to the scouting department? With the new head of amateur scouting an head of pro scouting (rather than just scouting) - means different person running our draft board this year. Also rumours of more scouts being recruited 2 Quote

Honestly quickly becoming my most trusted Sabres twitter source/news breaker I don't know much about Chad. I kind of look at non-mainstream media Twitter accounts with a skunk eye. Who is he and what has he gotten right? 1 Quote

I kind of look at non-mainstream media Twitter accounts with a skunk eye. Who is he and what has he gotten right? Runs a site called Expected Buffalo. Has a weekly Podcast and does have media credentials with the Sabres. Broke the Kahun Trade, was the first to suggest that Krueger was indeed being fired the night before it happened. Was cited on WGR 550 the next morning for being first to report it, and is a frequent guest on WGR to discuss the Sabres on The Howard Simon Show. 4 Quote
Stoner Posted March 28, 2021 Report Posted March 28, 2021 Possibilities: 1. Status quo — Terry (de facto president) • Kevyn • Head coach 2. Tweak — Terry (de facto president) • Kevyn • Karmanos • Head coach 3. Tweak-plus — Terry (de facto president) • Kevyn • Senior advisor • Karmanos • Head coach 4. Major tweak — Terry • Hockey president • Kevyn? • Karmanos? • Head coach 5. What needs to happen — Hockey president • GM • Karmanos? • Head coach 1 Quote

Zamboni Posted March 28, 2021 Report Posted March 28, 2021 @john wawrow said like 2 weeks ago he was working on “something” he was writing about, and it would be known very soon... did he ever follow up on that? Some scoop he was looking into I think. Or a story about the Pegulas. Not sure. Quote
