mjd1001 Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 Fletcher being out is a good thing, but they have to change their whole organizational philosophy. If you get rid of the GM but ownership/scouting/other management doesn't do a 360 on how they want to build a team, it won't change much. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 Could Fletcher had done a worse job? His long until Miller is a GM somewhere? They makes 3 from the 05/06 team. Quote
French Collection Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 Pretty quick transition, I hope he gets the job full time. Quote
PerreaultForever Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 Well Flyers fans I know are VERY happy and they are apparently going to hire 2 people. One as GM and one as President. Briere's just interim but could end up as the GM. In any event unless Holmgren and Clarke step aside whoever gets the job is going to have a hard time fixing that mess. Quote
Quint Posted March 10, 2023 Report Posted March 10, 2023 Maybe that was the deal with Satan that Briere and Drury made when they parted ways with the Sabres on the same day...that they would someday become GMs for rival teams. Quote

Taro T Posted March 11, 2023 Report Posted March 11, 2023 7 minutes ago, Quint said: I didn't mean THAT Satan. Realize that. As discussed with Thorny, the 3rd guy was Grier. Who IS the GM of the team he played for between stints with the Sabres. (San Jose.) It was mentioned upthread that there were 3 GM's from the '05-'06 team. Hadn't realized that Grier's name hadn't been mentioned upthread nor that anybody thought of Miro when discussing that team because at Drury's request, he wasn't a part of that team. He was released free and clear and the Sabres were better for it. Totally got that you were referring to the devil in your statement. And as mentioned, never considered Miro when reading it. Quote
