It's not a love fest at all. Some of you guys want it both ways. When Darcy does nothing you say he's lazy and doesn't know what he's doing. Then when he actually does something that makes sense, he has no class. Stay on one side of the fence for longer than a week at least.

Technically that's two distinct issues to whine about.

Darcy's player movement activity performance

Class level of the execution of player movement

didn't say that , was refering to darcy didn't communicate with him either

"another class move by Darcy, let the player find out he lost his job on twitter


the free agents will be lining up to come work here



just sad that a GM doesn't have the courtesy to make a phone call

no class, don't care who the player is"


-Just sayin.

I have wanted Darcy gone since I started posting here, never wavered from it oncce, I don't care what Darcy does he will never get 1 ounce of praise from me

Wow, so even if he traded a 3rd round pick for Getzlaf you wouldn't praise that move? jaded.

yes you did, your words, "let the kid found out he lost his job on twitter."

what if he had drafted Mackinnon and Drouin

You just insulted millions of die-hard Genesis fans.

At least he got the Steve part right.

I would have taken his hand in marriage if he had pulled that off.

didn't express properly that McCormick found out from his wife (I believe) it's hard to respnd propoerly when every douche on the board is attacking you at once

my apologies

I agree 1,000,000,000% (yep, that's right) with the Gerbe buy-out, but Darcy could have called the kid first.
- Powerslave

In this day in age when you know who's getting drafted in the NFL draft before the pick is even in, how do you know he didn't plan on it. Maybe it leaked before Darcy had a chance. Just saying.

At least he got the Steve part right.

I asked Nathan Gerbe what he would change about Sabres' organization. This next tweet will be his complete answer. (2/3)

John Vogl @BuffNewsVogl
"I think we need to do a better job of supporting guys. I think confidence is 95 percent of this game. It really is. As an organization you can’t squash guys’ confidence every single day, and I think you’ve got to realize that everyone in this room, if they’re confident, you’re going to have a good team. You guys see a stretch of someone having confidence, and then you see a stretch of someone not having a confidence, and it’s a world of difference in a player. It’s not a different player, it’s confidence in the game. That’s so important to each individual. We’ve got to do a better job of that.

"If guy’s playing well, reward them. If they don’t, talk to them. Don’t just call them out. Everyone sees it in every sport. Confidence is far beyond anything you can imagine.

"I try to stay as positive as I can and as confident as I can, but sometimes you need the support around you to help."

In short, he doesn't think the team needs the accountability we all scream for.

Well that was your first post, gerbe finds out he lost his job via twitter. Realistically its just something you completely made up, and people called you out for making it up.

Confidence is 95% of hockey? OK Nate, maybe your next team will give you a high 5 after every shift and say "attaboy".
