A junior B boys team could beat those teams. What are they going to teach these men, how to shoot with a 50 flex?

Jon Cooper's hockey playing career consists of one year of club hockey at Hofstra. He's a pretty good coach

You're right, bring in the women, the Sabres have tried everything else.

Here's the real answer:

Another story from #Sabres development camp.

Buffalo brought in collegiate asst. coaches Chelsea Walkland (Colgate) & Shelly Picard (LIU) as guest coaches for the camp.

All part of NHL’s initiative for more diversity within its franchises.



Corporate needs to feel important too.

Probably wouldn’t have much to teach when it comes to winning board battles, but probably could share some things in other areas, such as skating, or help with thinking/seeing the game.

If the women are good enough, they'd get the job without a diversity initiative.

Somehow I knew this was going to be your take. They're properly rated as an "oh yeah, those guys" like Wham or Devo.

I'd be willing to bet Dawn Braid would have plenty to say about how to utilize footwork and leverage to win board battles

Friend of mine in WPG also mentioned something similar in their season ticket holder meetings.

The city can't really afford a franchise so the only way it survives is if it is consistently selling out and thats never gunna happen in rebuild. I mean the attendance numbers were kinda weak last year and they were between okay and good.

Really good post

Imagine if we didnt have the pegulas as owners in both sports. Sabres and Bill's could be long gone.
