Coaches lie, its human nature.

Ralph didnt want to tip his hand in regards to eichel playing.

Pregame skate keeps them guessing. Why show out hand?

Fibs bother you? But the softest team in the world doesn't?
- Boss34

You're joking right?

So the plan was to have Jack take pre-game to see if he could go and if not replace him with Tage?

If that was the plan then that's even worse than Ralph not knowing

The Sabres won't win a Stanley Cup with Jack Eichel as captain

Not to mention the gambling aspect that also plays an important part.

Stanley Cup? This franking team wont be .500 with Eichel as captain. This team is light-years away from just being mediocre.

When you think of the current Sabres as the “shenanigans” discussion from Super Troopers everything makes sense. The 13-14 Sabres shenanigans were cheeky and fun. The current Sabres are tragic and sad.

The current Sabres are Rod Farva.

I forget where I saw it but someone on twitter summed it up like this: the worst thing that a sports team can be is bad and boring. Check and check.

Edmonton Claimed Stalock.

Team with bad goaltending tries to add depth.

Right because the ones with NHL Experience are helping so much. Hey Irwin could use a buddy, he's still trying to find his jock from the NJ game.

We need big tough guys to clear the net front

We need more young guys in the lineup.


Asking for both is difficult?

Isnt positioning, leverage and strength part of being older?

Just crazy that people are upset with eichel saying one thing and the coach something different.

That's the biggest worry now in sabre land?

You guys take everything as fact.
It's a lying business stripes.

It's also an effort business. That's my concern.

Rather watch the youngins then some of the sh!t on the ice know. And not really depends on how you were coached, and how hard your willing to train. But I am afraid to see these youngster with Ralph

When the coach's whole shtick is "openness, transparency, communication and honesty" then a little fib basically undermines what little integrity he had. He's a joke
- jcragcrumple

He completely lost the team over Jeff Skinner.

I cannot wait until whoever takes over for Krueger puts Skinner back with Eichel and they go on a tear again

You're assuming Ralph actually gets fired
