Pat Lafontaine resigns position with team

[missingmika]

I still think it's Justin Bailey.... he was at the game yesterday and he's not saying on Twitter that he's not captain, but is saying about his great time in Buffalo.

 

[omglolnub]

Murray better not he going anywhere. Nolan and lafontaine can go cry a river beside the habour center for all i care.

Yeah, sign me up for Team Murray's roster.

 

[Shmuffalo]

And then he's going to fight Ted Black for the presidency.

 

[HiddenInLight]

Pat LaFontaine to be replaced by Larry Quinn. Terry Pegula quoted as saying "We thought this was the right move, Larry has proven a great asset to this team in the past with his stellar handling of personnel, making this team one of the most well respected in the league during his tenure. Welcome back Larry."

 

[Beerz]

turns out this is all over "does Limo count in scrabble"

I think Putin is involved too.

Putin signed Lafontaine to be President of the UUkraine

 

[Karate Johnson*]

The only truly negative outcome is if Murray leaves. LaFontaine, Black and/or Nolan would be unfortunate and poorly timed, but Murray leaving will screw us.

 

[zenthusiast]

The crossroads we all knew would need to be crossed, is currently ring crossed (it seems)

Patty loves Nolan, any GM is going to want to hire his own guy.

Speculation as to whether the Miller trade had an affect

Ok, thanks


e: no avatar, huh?

WTF is going on? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

 

[Shmuffalo]

And then he's going to fight Terry for ownership.

Andrew Peters.

Coming Spring 2014.

 

[sabregoat]

All this because Nolan did not give Linus Omark a fair shot.

 

[Push Dr Tracksuit]

inside info, Pegula accused Nolan of only playing Omark with John Scott and demanded he be fired, LaFonatine is trying to prevent it...

 

[vcv]

What on earth are you talking about?

It's a joke.

 

[Karate Johnson*]

It's a joke.

Oh, ok.

 

[zenthusiast]

As much as I hate Nolan as coach I don't understand why he'd be fired now

 

[BananaSquad]

Make craig patrick president of hockey ops and tell patty to go take a hike.

You to.... lol

He was given the interim tag for a reason. If Murray has pegged a guy to take over long-term and that same guy is now available, why wait?

Stop that!!! I've already threaten another poster for even joking about something so horrible.

To me that scenario is worse than being forced to sit and watch a deceased family member being consumed by maggots.

Maybe Murray said hes not coming back after the year is up

It's a poor position to put a long term coach in imo but I'm not an nhl executive

As long as Murray is staying and calling the shots - let's rock and roll.

Or possibly that Murray wants to trade a player that Nolan or Lafontaine doesn't want moved.

Yup!
