I really hate the idea of giving Babcock too much power with player selection.
Im guessing Murray in charge of drafting while Babcock in charge of who plays.

Come on.
Babs current contract is til 30 June. I'm guessing if this goes through they'll do a presser announcing him as the next Sabres coach.
Being that he's still under contract to Detroit, will that limit what he can or can't do with us? Seems kind of awkward, but maybe it's just how business is done?

Come on, Mike. Go home and seal the deal with Mrs Babcock. Do what needs to be done, if you know what I mean.
I don't have any problem with Babcock having final say over Rochester and Buffalo transactions. And after Nolan loudly complained about Pysyk, he should be concerned about it.
IF, I mean IF, Babcock does choose Buffalo and comes to town to sign a contract, PLEASE don't track his flight and meet him at the airport terminal. It would just be SUPER creepy and scare him off.
They step in because of Blashill. Babcock even said that.
And way to misunderstand my Leino comment even though I outlined not to take it that way. We went after Leino regardless of him being a good fit or not because until Pegula was here we were never able to be in the running for a top tier free agent. That's what my fear with Babcock was. That he may not be a great fit for the team but we're one of the few teams that can afford him so we pursued him.
Do you mean call-ups? Because it'd be ridiculous to give him final say over other roster moves. He's not a GM, he's a coach.

Right call ups and send downs. If I'm him, I have two roster concerns: 1) another Pysyk situation, and 2) potentially a huge number of young guys being forced onto the roster. If Babcock wants to be the guy who decides who makes his team and who doesn't, I'm totally comfortable with that.
So finished last two straight years but on opening night 2015-16 our team will be....
Coached by a Cup and Olympic winner...
Have on it.....
Evander Kane - stud
Jack Eichel - 2nd best prospect in ten years
Tyler Ennis - coming into his own
Zegmus - stud
Sam Reinhart - top forward in 14 draft, super smart
Risto - future stud
Zadorov - future stud
Begoosnia - 6'5" of mean nasty
Seriously, I wouldn't of believed you 6 months ago.....
Happy, happy, happy
Hamilton is just guessing. Makes sense...let me tweet it.
