NJ had themselves a decent game last night. Playing with a little heart sure goes a long way.

Miles Wood had more determination then seemingly the entire Sabres team.

Coach Ralph employs an incredibly bland, vanilla style of play and the players play like it.

I heard the Sabres met with Dudley and were pretty close to hiring him as a "part time" advisor. Fell apart.

Met with Lindy Ruff, didnt want to pay big bucks....
Ruff and Adam's are very tight still.

Did you heard anything in regards to either "non hire"?


* Was Burke or hextall looked into too?

- Boss34

Pegula won't take " orders" from Dudley that was the same for LaFontaine. I didn't hear anything regarding Ruff, he was still with the Rangers when they hired this loser.Nothing on Burke and or Hextall. No way he listens to Brian Burke, are you kidding me.

Yeah Kim told Duds what can you really show us that we don't already know.
- Buff36


I heard they were very close, and Dudley backed off.
Not sure, but I guess he really wants to retire without pressure? Part time isn't part time for some people.

Watch the Leafs or sens hire him 🙉

From what I heard, Pegula won't pay another coach or GM that's not on the team, he 's losing money and was still paying for a past GM and Coach. We will have to ride it out with this assclown until the ship completely sinks or Pegula has had enough.

Torts would eat Kevin Adams alive, Adams couldn't find a hole quick enough to jump in to hide from him.

It's a shame they couldn't talk with Ruff, him and Adams are supposedly very close, maybe could have been are McBeane

Pegula likes Krueger because he talks with him and not down to him, he doesn't try to tell him " this is how it needs to be". Other Coaches and GM's that have been around won't do that, they will say" hey we need this or this should be this way". Krueger makes it out as though it was Pegula's ideas or idea. It's a freak show.

Thanks 89, I just don't know what to say anymore. There is talent on this team, but no life to it.

👍 appreciate the information

I think the "Ruff" hire would have been this past offseason. Which would have made another paying management position? Interview Maybe to appease gmka?

They interviewed Lindy when they hired ralph.
If I'm not mistaken, he thought he had the job and wasn't thrilled when Ralph got hired.

Maybe they interview Lindy annually?
🤔

I think I read somewhere maybe here that they did interview Lindy, don't know how true that is. This assclown we hired is a good bulls$$t artist.

Hate to say it cause he is a very good hockey player. But would this team be better off without him. I know it could hurt on the ice, but might be better in the long run.
