The housecleaning will only be a rearranging of the furniture in the room. Adams as a president role, new GM (which is good, but would it be anyone but Karmanos?), Ruff as a coach or retired/consultant role, Appert behind the bench. Maybe the assistant coaches get shuffled about? Now, that hypothetical would be one more step of separation from the owner to the coach, which could be beneficial for the team construction. 1 Quote
Stoner Posted December 2 Report Posted December 2 Was it really AI/bot? What if it was a test to see if the technology has gotten so good no one could tell? I thought it was humanoid. The AI voiceovers have gotten so good I can tell only if there's some glitch like pronouncing 1979 as one thousand nine hundred and seventy nine. They'll fix that. Strange times. Quote

Strange times. I think it was a plant tbh. Maybe. Didn’t seem like a bot to me. I could be wrong there WAS a notable bot around here a bit ago, can’t remember the username Quote

I don’t know how much of a positive effect someone toeing the company line would have, if any, but I also struggle to see why someone from the organization wouldn’t at least try it, considering the size of this sabres message board (is it the largest?) and the cost of doing so (nothing) id imagine a cost-effective swing even if thinly veiled may be up Terry’s alley Edited December 4 by Thorner Quote

As much as people clowned on idemo, it did get more positive around here. People want to be optimistic. Every season we see people push themselves to shake negativity and embrace the positive. The organization should be shooting shots to improve fan base health. Quote

Remember when Kim said “I think we know a little more than the fans.”? I think what they may have known is that their goals for the sabres aren’t the same as those of the fanbase 1 1 Quote

I like that you mentioned Idemo... although I havent seen him.. I actually like what he brought... I think he was rose colored and not realistic... but I loved he had hope.. cause some how him having hope made me hope that I was wrong.... I loved the naive enthusiasm... unlike my jaded self all mad and crotchety... but hey, My first hockey game was the Schoenfeld thru the boards with Cashman game... so many decades of futility for me.... 1 Quote

mjd1001 Posted December 11 Report Posted December 11 Dahlin looks to be back by the end of the week. The team is better when he is on it. I love Tage, I will defend him against anyone who says he isn't worthy of his contract, and most of the time that he isn't a good enough first line player. But, Tage is not the best player and most important player on this team, Dahlin is. Since he left the game, The Sabres have allowed 17 goals in about 10 periods. They have been outscored 17-9 in those 10 periods. Their collapse against Colorado coincided with about the time he left the game. Also, 7 game losing streak.....its NOTHING! There have been 40 losing streaks of 7 games or longer just in the past 2 1/3 seasons. San Jose lost 9 in a row earlier this year. Nashville is currently on an 8 game skid. The Islanders made the playoffs and they had a 7 game skid last year that also started in December that had them looking up at the playoffs by the time it ended. And for good measure they threw another 6 game skid into last season in the spring before the playoffs. Get to 10 and its an issue, but 7 games? lol, nothing but a small test of the team's character. 1 Quote
John Tucker Posted December 12 Report Posted December 12 Yet again, I am able to plan a late spring vacation without the fear of missing Sabres playoff games! Quote
