I'm told Pegulas were looking for answers on how to proceed, and Murray didnt have many, or any. Bylsma was collateral damage swept w/GMTM

You would think when meeting with your boss you'd at least make up something that sounds good

After the season they had not having all your cards in order before meeting with your boss sounds pretty ridiculous

You would think, he had time to prepare and present his side.

Especially since he had ample time to prepare. It's not like his meeting with them was 2 days after the season ended. He had more than enough time to come up with a game plan.

I think i would be fine with Ruff back in the front office at some position... but I don't want him as Head Coach... nor would I really want him as the lead GM. An Assistant or special something sure. I'm not even sure I'd want him as the Lead of Hockey Ops.

Some role sure... but in charge of something big... Nope. He is AWFUL with developing young talent.

I am going to miss his press conferences though.

He didn't just get it slapped....


Tim Murray is now a eunuch.

I just don't want a GM that thanks cities during the draft. Bring GMTM back just to announce who we're drafting.

I know I don't know sh!t about anything but all I want is a coach that can motivate this team, whether very talented or not, to go out and compete for 60 minutes on a nightly basis.... Compete... That is all I want... Work their a$$ of every single damn shift...
Then , win or lose, I will watch every game...

- rapperray


I'd like a coach and GM who go 100% on a full attacking all the time style of play.

Then again, I watch to be entertained and that style of play is very much that.

Stop. the whole this is Jack Eichels fault thing has to stop.

MULTIPLE PLAYERS despised Bylsma. not just Eichel

Eichel had nothing to do with Murray getting fired. Murray lead both the NHL and AHL team to bottom of the league finishes.

- ImThatGuy

Agreed! And the good news is that the new guy will turn this around quickly! I do believe that and the Sabres will be battling for a playoff stop next year barring major injuries!

No I meant that he was totally unprepared.

I said it two years ago....This dude totally (frank)ed us trying to speed things up.

He had a list of guys, once he got them he thought we were golden

Go (frank) yourselves idiots !

Being right feels so good.

Especially when making dumbasses look like even bigger dumbasses.

Congratulations.

Buh bye beady eyed douchebag Murray...Buh bye.

And buh bye to all of you dumbasses.

Tell Klink I said to go (frank) himself.

Thanks, Buffalo hardhat.
