Ok, maybe not. He's not coming back unless MAF melts down. Which is entirely possible, but he's also not even skating yet.

You're last in the order. So I probably will.

He's actually a really good guy and cares a lot about the fans

Did you know he responded to mostly every single email that was sent to him by fans about complaints and he tried fixing those things the best he could

I would say his downfall was rooting for the tank too much with the fanbase he also would give information to the fans at his meet the president "meetings"
( the Dominic ceremony I think was the nail in the coffin)

Russ Brandon definitely agreed

I figure he's the best bet. Rather him than some guy that's going to be sitting on the bench behind a healthy starter

I have a friend that works in the Sabres office that said things ran much smoother (administratively) once Brandon took over. Obviously, the product on the ice still leaves a ton to be desired.
- buffalofan19


That's his role. I think a lot of people forget the business side of the Sabres and Bills, and he's a wizard at that Ralph thought he might be a good GM that obviously was a humongous beeg mistake, but put him on the business side and he's gold. Either that or Buffalo people are morons who keep buying tickets and tuning in. Either one.

I think there was 14 overtime games ( could be wrong lol)

It was still very exciting but I did not like the format

It was the most for any single round of the playoffs I think.

So does anybody think Washington has any chance against Pittsburgh?
- GERBE!!!75PTS


If you would have asked me this before the Columbus series my answer would have been yes. But I think they win 4-1 or 4-2. Pittsburgh looks like a lock for the East.

Pittsburgh and Ottawa Eastern Finals.

Anaheim and Edmonton in the West

I can't wait until we are good so I don't hear about Russ Brandon and Kim Pegula. Because I'm certain they won't get credit the same way they weirdly get blamed
- sbroads24


The Kim Pegula thing is just weird. When did that happen? It seems like just the last few days. I'm not saying she doesn't have anything to do with the teams, but it's not like she's in the trenches every day either.

I heard gmtm got drunk and called Kim the C word and had to beg to keep his job short into his tenure. I'm not saying that's what really happened, but I think it's pretty clear he was fired because he's a little too free wheeling for the pegula's taste, and also might be too much of a riverboat gambler for them asset wise. I had faith he was going to straighten it out, but also things considered, especially with the people that own the team, I could see patience being thin and not wanting to leave to chance.

This. He seems to fawn over McDermott who has the exact opposite personality that Rex and Murray have.

If the sharks can shut him down .. what do you think Ryan kesler's going to do

McDavid will have a Max of four points in the series

Dallas really? That's kind of shocking. Feel like a lot of them aren't very hockey passionate. What did they do that made it so electric?
- bluengold12


thats the whole thing.
if you entertain a bunch of yahoos who dont know what they're watching with pitbull songs and free t-shirts, they'll have a blast like they're at a party.
You want to see the Sabres arena get loud and rowdy?
Win more.
No one gives a crap in Buffalo if you're playing some rappers hottest new slammin track when the team has 9 shots over 2 periods and didnt score for the last 2 games before that. People in some of those markets are easily entertained by pop culture. People in serious hockey markets go to see their team win or try like hell to win.
