Oh Man... You are a tough guy to?

Tbh that sounds more like Vigneault. McLellan's record is more like Andy Reid. Always there, never going anywhere

We have to get there first, before going anywhere. Which is why i am fine if its mclellan. Experience and a winning track record

I liked the idea of AV the most before i learned a little(maybe?) about his tendencies. One thing to consider here we have young players with a good amount of games making up half of our veterans.

they could get Scotty Bowman out of retirement and he wouldn't be able to do much with this current roster. Botts might have bought himself some time, but the players themselves need to vastly improve. I don't know exactly how he's going to do it because all he has to trade is futures. No one is taking our trash in exchange for good players.

My fearless predictions on a gloomy evening in Sarasota

NHL Lottery
Tim Murray seen howling in the audience as Jason Botterill turns white and passes out
1st - Edmonton Oilers
2nd - Florida Panthers
3rd - Montreal Canadians

Todd McClelan, a Mike Babcock disciple, learns from his mentor well... pulls off the Babcock Shuffle out of Buffalo signing with LA Kings.

Playoffs
Blues RIP off 16 straight wins to win The Cup.
ROR scores 19 Goals, has 78% FO rate to go along with a 62% Corsi, named MVP.
In his speech, he says he has never loved playing hockey so much...just a rebirth after 3 years in hell with some JACK-ass.

Skinner signs in Tampa for $2M per over 5 years, says it was never about money.

Trevor Zegras, Sabres selection at 8 refuses to sign with Sabres, calling them a joke of an organization and demands to be traded to Edmonton Oilers.

Botts pivots from McClellan shake-off and names Cody Hodgson as Coach. In his presser, Cody names Ville Leino as Offensive Asst Coach and Mike Tennyson as Defensive Asst Coach, brings in Ted Nolan as Director of Analytics and X's & O's Strategy Officer.

The Black Widow says she has learned so much this offseason. Announces Ticket Renewal Rate of 12.5%

I think a couple/few guys deserve promotions. There is some change for you. If that means waiving a Sobotka, for example, then so be it. If it means not qualifying a certain RFA, so be it. Sobotka can run home to Slovakia if he does he want to play in Rochester.

Trading Risto for a top 6 F can't be an easy trade to complete, but I'd consider it.

A nice solid free agent D man is of utmost importance, imo.

I don't think we're going to see a change in goal, so those guys need to just be better. Goalie coaching change?

What do you guys think the odds are that Eichel and Darlin spend their whole careers with the Buffalo Sabres?

Well at least McLellan is more animated and may be able to light a fire. He did a solid job in San Jose with a talented team, now its time for Botterill to supply him with that and I think he can. But I have been wrong in the past.

Animated isn't how I'd describe Todd- at least not behind the bench.

As a matter of principle I am opposed to the death penalty but I would support a life sentence without the possibility of parole.

But ...how have the Oilers panned out with all that young talent ? Sabres Might be the same type of players and would he fair the same ? I dunno .

We really need another center that can take some attention away from Jack. Then we need 2 wingers to play with said center. Sobodka should be waived because he would most likely head home. We're stuck with Okposo, and I dont hate the guy, I just hate his cap hit. I think Erod should center the 4th line.

Agreed.

A #2 center has to be the priority after the HC.

Me thinks we are drafting our long term 2C in the draft this year. Turcotte/Dach/Cozens/Zegras. Take your pick.

I agree with all of this. Hopefully we can address in FA or trade for 2C.
