Correction on my UB post, may not be hockey related. More likely an NCAA bid for either mens or Womens b-ball.

"Pegula and Murray unimpressed with sabres head coach Ted Nolan. Don't count on seeing Nolan as HC after this dismal season". I think that's what the headline was supposed to be

I'm not saying we make it far in the playoffs but I do think we can make the playoffs this year. You can win games with an elite D and a good run game.

Sucks u guys are stuck in the same division as a dynasty franchise that has been a true contender for probably 12-13 years.
amazing what they've done really

They wanna tank for mcdavid, but they're angry at the dismal season.
U can't have it both ways.

And what coach would've had that abysmal forward group out of the bottom 3?
It's the same as blaming sh1t all on Eakins. U see his defence and goaltending that he has to work with?
The new coach who everyone loves for no other reason than his name isnt Eakins, got lit for 7 against the fukin hurricanes

This is false. Owner and GM are much, much happier than they come off to be.


Yeah, that happened didn't it. Woof.

I'm not angry with Nolan for the dismal season. My dislike has nothing to do with his wins and losses.

My dislike has to do with his decision-making during the season, the way he handles players, his apparent inability to serve as a part of a management team. He has been a "my way or the highway" type, and I sense he loses track of who the boss is.

FWIW.. many Buffalo media members believe Nolan & Friends were justified in demoting Grigs.

Coller doesn't count in my eyes as anyone who should judge a player but regardless Grigorenko HAD to be sent down once Dalpe came back to the team due to the recall rules

A) Nolan sounds drunk. (Yeah I said it).

B) At the end, Duffer says "stay tuned for lineup changes before Wednesday's game" like we should expect them.

Yeah, but he didn't need to be kicked by the Coach on the way out the door. This isn't just something they were forced to do by the recall rule.

Sure Nolan has some valid points but again this falls under the mismanagement of Grigorenko from day 1

When I said that, Coller is not exactly high priority.

Baker, Harrington, Hamilton, Hoppe, and Coller.

The bolded don't count

Hamilton pretty much quoted Nolan and didn't offer any insight (as per usual)

Baker and Hoppe I can get on board with but again demoting him after 2 shifts was dumb.

I hate Harrington. But the point of my post was to demonstrate that Nolan wasn't the only one to think Grigs deserved a demotion. I watched him the other night as well and it was pretty clear he lacked the urgency to stay up on the 2nd line. I sure as poop didn't mistake him for Girgensons. He made a few nice plays but I just didn't see the overall effort. I want the kid to succeed as much as the next guy. I hope he learns from this and starts putting in a full 60.

A Bills source tells the Buffalo News that Fred Jackson "isn't going anywhere."

A second source tells reporter Tim Graham that new owner Terry Pegula apparently intervened on Jackson's behalf. It's understandable why Pegula may be loath to make one of his first moves cutting Jackson, but it would be justifiable from a football standpoint. Jackson is now 34, and coming off a season where he averaged just 3.72 yards per carry. Shady McCoy is making $8 million per year. Pegula better be ready to sign off on tough decisions, otherwise he could quickly become



Pegula the " fan " at it again.

A machine that shoots out the balls for players to catch in practice is better then EJ.
