or was it a coach who got more out of a team that ownership didn't spend on...troll
- Dwight K. Schrute


Well there you go, yet another excuse for Ruff's failures. What is this totally illogical, unfounded loyalty to a coach who has a very in impressive, losing record? It baffles me. Blame it on the front office, the players, hell, blame it on the fans. It can't ever be RUFF'S fault. Not a troll, just stating what I feel should have been obvious to everyone years ago. Ruff's gotta go. Looks like they finally hopped on the clue bus.

It's Rolston according to Matt Coller on WGR. He covers the Amerks.

Sportsnet's Josh Rimer reports the #Sabres will promote James Patrick to coach at their 5 pm presser

Didnt Buffalo dominate with Patrick as coach when Lindy went down with the rib injury last year? I think I recall the Sabres were doing horribly at the time, Lindy went out, Patrick was coach and we won like 6-0 over the Bruins?

How close am I?

I'm OK with just about anyone on the interim. Full evaluation in the offseason and hire from there.

Coincidence. That year no one in our division wanted it.

I hope its not Rolston. Leggio gets more shots on him per game than Miller. It would be the same lousy defense.
- sippyd


He seems like the logical choice unless they can a) find a big name guy elsewhere or b) james Patrick is so damn impressive that Stafford starts scoring again...in which they would probably keep him permanently.

I see some people think Roy might replace him, imagine if we got Roy and we ended up signing Hasek for the year.

I don't want a new coach to come in until this year is over. Why? Because hopefully by then pegula will fire darcy and whoever the new GM is will find the new head coach.

Why let darcy pick the new guy and screw that up.

I would be fine with James Patrick as interm coach, just to see if he can get this team too play for him. If they don't end of the year Darcy and entire staff gone and start fresh
