LOL at Duff and Marty trying to talk about anything having to do with this team #PravdaOnTheNiagara

 

[Chainshot]

14-15 team was shutout 14 times

Phil reminds me of Lloyd Braun. At the beginning he was that smart guy working for the mayor of New York, then later he appeared again after having a mental breakdown, trying to sell chinese chewing gum to Seinfeld.

Housley will get fired. It’s impossible to retain him now. They’ve won THREE out of the last 23 games or something like that.

They’ll say they’ll have their season ending meetings. And after that he will be let go and Botterill will say at the end of the day it’s a results driven business and we weren’t taking the step expected to get results. And he will do it in a way that builds no confidence in him or the organization.

 

[BananaSquad]

He should be fired tonight

 

[Howie Hodge]

Looks like I picked a good night to fall asleep during the game.....

If it hadn't snowed today I'd have been outside.

Well why get young guys ice time in these important games especially when the vets are playing so well.

Housley is the worst coach in the history of this sport and he has actively impeded young players development since he got here.

"It's a situation where we felt that the organization needed to head into a different direction and it's a situation we are enduring to explore candidates dedicated to building a winning environment"

On the real, funny how Paul Hamilton suspects Chris Taylor will be promoted to HC because no one will want to come here.

Hire Q, AV, Kruegger, or even bring back Ruff.

I sort of felt bad for McCabe...in the interview...sort of thrown out to the wolves.

 

[joshjull]

The evil side of me wants Therrien to get hired to scare the crap out of these guys.

Felt the same way. It took a lot of poise for him to not say what he wanted.

 

[sabremike]

Housley is a historically bad coach. He is even worse than the undisputed champion of suck garbage coaches Pierre McGuire, and I never thought I would see that in my lifetime

 

[MagnumForce2]

I would like to see Botterill take the interview and face the music after one of these games.

We think it is tough to sign free agents in Buffalo now, imagine with MT being behind the bench hacking darts.

 

[Tsujimoto]

Most ever shut out in a season?

The 2004-05 team didn't score a single goal all season.

Hall of fame defenseman, hall of shame head coach.

Well the last guy to do that and say something honest got scapegoated and chased out of town with pitchforks. While I imagine none of these players would mind being traded I doubt they want to put up with the shit-storm that O’Reilly went through last year.

When Botterill announces they fired Housley to go in a different direction this is what he means.

Wouldn't have the guts.

Lol. I see what you did there.

 

[BananaSquad]

Wtf..... fire this clown tonight

 

[TheStorm]

Of course they got shut out.

 

[joshjull]

He actually did say that. Nylander sat becasue Phil wasn’t happy with Girgs/Larsson.
