Yeah, but Adams still has the assets to build a properly constructed Team. He just fails to do so.

Because pegs can’t quit guys like grigs.

When the fanboy owner, who thinks he knows hockey, plays president and leans in on roster decisions, it impacts the overall team construction.

This is where the problem began, and won't end until he changes his philosophy.

Ironically, the Bills are in the same boat, they just have a freak QB that could possibly do it in spite of him

If the islanders are stupid enough to fire Torts this summer, the Sabres MUST hire him. He is the answer to this country club culture

Except the Bills spend sh¡tloads of money, unlike the Sabres who do everything possible to not spend money, like trading for a goalie who will never play for you just so you can get to the cap floor.

Torts, looking good

And why would the Flyers fire Torts? They're going to the playoffs

Both the Caps and Red Wings would have to pass them. I know they both have games in hand, but the Red Wings are 1 point back with 1 game in hand. Plus the Caps would also have to pass them for the Flyers to miss. And the Red Wings and Caps play each other once still.

They're far from a lock, but certainly not enough to get Torts fired.

And anyway, I was poking fun at the fück-up of calling Torts the Isles head coach

Holding the team and players to a higher standard when the games matter more --- what a concept!

https://twitter.com/Flyer...3ND5rAEzKFHsftUsTlaQ&s=19

John Tortorella came out swinging postgame:

"There are certain people that they don't have a clue how to play, or just don't have it in them to play in these type of situations."

"That was embarrassing in the 2nd period for the Philadelphia Flyer uniform the way we played."

On Ivan Fedotov: "I'm totally impressed. I put him in a hell of a spot and he's the only god damn player that played in the 2nd period."

good hope the owner gets pissed off, but he doesn't care cause the place was full. I don't blame one fan for selling tickets to Toronto fans at least they got some money back for the poop show that is the sabres..

So let's have some fun!
1- Replace Assistant Coaches Scott Arniel in for Matt Ellis Ulf Samuelsson in for Marty Wilford
2- Do not bring Girgensons back, he does nothing but Breed Losing.
3- Go get Yakov Trenin or Dakota Joshua they can bring much needed intangibles to the Team.
4- Balance out your D, many might not like it but go get Jani Hakanpaa for a couple years and let him mentor and protect Power.
5- Adams stop wearing Pegula's A$$ like it's a Sombrero and do your F@cking job.

I used to think this, but if the Sabres play this season means anything, it is that game 1 means as much as game 82. In fact, get off to a strong start and maybe games late in the season don't have the same urgency required than when the team digs a hole early and needs to bail itself out by having longer winning streams later.
That is THE concept.

Most of the assistant coaches, and probably don, will be fired.

that's my opinion.

I'll always remember him for quiting at halftime... It was a hilarious move at a time the franchise was a joke.

I would love to see Girgs just walk out during a 1st period intermission. It would be appropriate during this abomination of a season

He will forever be a Bill. Just sad he's gone, far too young.

Is the current top 6 good enough to only require new reliable depth support and new quality coaching staff?
