TM just says what's on his mind, no non-sense approach!

Great interview on WGR http://media.wgr550.com/a...wgr-5-21.htm?q=tim+murray

Buffalo was played by Babcock. F Mike Babcock.
Buffalo has a very bright future and many of the key components to be a Stanley Cup champ in 3 to 7 years.
I loved Tim Murray interviews when he was in Ottawa. Very open, direct and honest.
F Mike Babcock! I hope that you boys spank TML every time you meet for the next 8 years.

yea i wanted Babcock but..... I Think Bylsma (if we can get him) will be just as good an option. Not to mention the whole USA vs Canada thing. Babcock played the patriot card, so lets get us a stars and stripes coach for Eichel. Merica!

He's not. Unless he's learned something since his time in Pittsburgh. Make no mistake, he deserves a big chunk of blame for our playoff failures.

On the positive side, it's quite possible his failure to land a job since his firing possibly knocked him down a peg. Seems like a nice guy, but certainly has a penchant for being stubborn and inflexible.

I pity some of your young prospects if he becomes the coach.

This is going to sound terrible, but my best friend is friends with a girl that I think looks like Julien. I'm a horrible person and probably going straight to hell, but I call it like I see it.

If youguys didn't listen to Murray's interview this afternoon on wgr, do it. It explains so many of our petty debates and assumptions. Babcock wanted too much power? Pure bullpoop. Murray is going to try to trade for mcdavid? Bullpoop. Murray's going to go after some old fart like Patrick Sharp? Bullpoop.

Thanks again, Tim. Keep being pro.

Considering young prospects is all we got, he'll probably need to re-examine his approach, assuming that's actually part of it.

She may be one of my least favorite people to deal with too. Somehow drama seems to follow her everywhere. She's only friends with people when it's convenient for her. I hate people like that. Either you're my friend and you've got my back when I need it or we're not friends at all.

Unfortunately, I don't think she would get the reference though so it would be tough to throw it at her.

- HonkFortheGoose




From my experience, it's usually cuz they're looking for it.

Should have a picture handy just in case. Slowly hold it up next to her face

Everything i've read/heard about Deboer suggests he'd be a disaster for a young team.

I wouldn't be able to head down until at least early evening on Saturday anyway. Have a family thing at 11:30 with lunch afterwards. So, no hurry. So if you do decide to go, let me know. I'll make my decision at that point. But the weather is supposed to be pretty decent, so I figured it might be time to take advantage, if you don't mind some extra company.

Jerry Sullivan is an absolute ass hat. He is just another Skip Bayless out there saying things for the sole purpose of getting a reaction. He disagrees with himself in the same sentence sometimes. I truly distain him and really wonder how he has a legitimate journalist job.

I so agree......told him he is a douche on twitter

The Sabres organization's reaction seems to be more media driven. Obviously they're pissed, but not sure if they want it to be as public as this. Murray seems to be taking the high road like a pro. Kinda petty of Sabres media member going to his introductory presser and basically accusing him of lying.

Coaches are a buck a dozen. Eichel will be just as impacting as the D. No loss here besides your obvious, awful troll attempt
