So maybe the strength is their ability to find the worst coaching and front office personel? And their weakness is then hiring those guys..... Bylsma won a Stanley Cup Quote

I am no fan of Matty as a coach but a being a good player does not translate into being a good coach in the NHL. Looking at the top 4 winningest NHL coaches. #4 - Paul Maurice - no professional games after juniors #3 - Barry Trotz - no professional games after juniors #2 - Joel Quinnville - NHL 4th liner #1 - Scotty Bowman - no professional games after juniors Quote

I was just trying to say that the organization has become the Matt Ellis of outfits. Rocket Richard’s coaching career only lasted 2 games with the Nordiques of the WHA. He couldn’t believe how players didn’t have his passion for the game. 1 Quote

I think the key to success for the Sabres lies in Tage becoming a very talented GOON. He needs to focus some anger and frustration on his opponents. The entire team except for maybe Greenway, Clifford and perhaps Dahlin need to take hockey fighting lessons from Rayzor. Quote
