All makes sense

U think not trading Kane factored in?
I believe there was a rumor earlier in the year that T Pegs wanted Kane out
Don't know if there was truth to that or not though

- jdfitz77

from what I heard, Kane had nothing to do with this, terry likes him as a player

Picked them to come out of our division
Still think the Caps v Pens winner takes it all
I picked the Caps Bc I like their depth & no Letang for Pitt

I liked Leon,
But I had Sam higher

Still like Sam a lot
Want to see him at center year round
The more the puck is on his stick,
the more he can be the "playmaker" he is

3rd line, something like...
Kane-Reinhart-Bailey

I'd like that a lot

if the new coach rolls 3 lines, this team could be decent next year


which is why I want a young coach that will open it up

they were actually talking with hard on's for tim murray

- homiedclown



Schopp is ridiculous
I listened to them for about 10-15min and turned it off

The Instigators show was better
Had on Elliott Friedman & Dreger,
Plus Biron & Matt FREAKING Ellis...

Well besides Pegula already pissed about the Bills, trades, non trades, players that were signed, a few things Murray told Pegula when he got hired that he would do but he never did. Our record this year being worse then last year, losing the last few games didn't help either. Pegula is flying blind, I said it before that he can care less about paying people to leave. I'm hoping to find out more tomorrow or over the weekend, my uncle;s friend with the Sabres said " Pegula is turning this into a real S$$T show". I think Pegula felt that Murray was in over his head.
- SABRES 89


I think we all forget that he was a first time GM. I know we all make jokes, but he got almost zero support. He was the one flying blind and it showed at times. I think it was a mistake to fire Murray. I thought the whole point of giving him a shot was to, you know, give him a shot. I know, I know this was his 4th year, but it's only his second year of trying to win. His drafts have gotten better the past 2 years, he hasn't made any impetuous moves. There's plenty of ammo for him contrary to what people may say. Overall I'd say he was learning. Now he'll take all that experience on to another team and they'll be the one to reap the benefits. There's a reason the military wants you to serve at least 3 years of active duty to get the full GI bill. They don't want to waste all those resources training you for a job for you to bail as soon as you get your feet underneath you.

Agree
Sam was chosen #2 for a reason
Get the kid back at Center where he will likely be his most effective
Unless he just can't do it defensively
