Bejeebus

He deserves to get pulled?

I think from a perspective of, "He shouldn't have to deal with the rest of the team quitting on him."

 

[Panthaz89]

Need a hardass coach that will get into them when they play like that to finish a game.

 

[Beerz]

He deserves to get pulled?

Yes.

Why leave him in for this?

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

The league's youngest team gives up 6 straight goals to the league's oldest. The lack of veteran leadership is glaring.

UPL really doesn't deserve this humiliation.

 

[Chainshot]

I don't think McDrai took a shift after Ekholms 2nd goal.

He didn't need to.

 

[Steddy33]

His decision making has been terrible on the pp... He had tuch wide up down low to set up Greenway in the slot and instead just curled back turns the point.

This team needs a coach that keeps this guys accountable.

His decision making has been awful all season everywhere. People keep saying he is injured. I don't see it. He looks tired more than injured, which would make sense given the newborn at home. Either way he's back to trying to over stick handle everything.

 

[Mr Orangeshirt]

That was one hell of a meltdown they had there. No fight in that dog. None at all.

 

[kirby11]

Say what you will about Lindy, he'd *never* let them run for the bus like that. Absolutely pathetic and shows that either (a) Granato can't get them to care and/or (b) they don't respect him, themselves, or each other enough to play hard through the end of a game that's already been decided.

 

[Steddy33]

I would like to thank the Sabres. Ekholm is on my fantasy team and tonight is the highest score he has had all season.

 

[kirby11]

Also, I miss Roby, he'd read them the riot act as opposed to the softer criticism the state-run media will give

 

[Mr Orangeshirt]

Absolutely sick for 6K there. He has been busting tail since the calendar flipped and is one of the only reasons that the team they are in the hunt and then the team just spills their spaghetti everywhere in front of him in the third period there and then just start rolling around in it at the end. Sad.

 

[OkimLom]

UPL carried this team for a month+. Leaving him in, in this blowout, is insulting to the guy. Have some respect for the guy.

 

[Beerz]

Granato is such a turd

 

[Ehran]

Did the team think the bus for Calgary was going to leave them behind if they kept the game competitive and, <gasp> kept it tied up into an overtime?

 

[sabremike]

SIXTH LONGEST TENURED COACH IN THE LEAGUE AND HE'S DONE f*** ALL.

 

[Chainshot]

Say what you will about Lindy, he'd *never* let them run for the bus like that. Absolutely pathetic and shows that either (a) Granato can't get them to care and/or (b) they don't respect him, themselves, or each other enough to play hard through the end of a game that's already been decided.

I think distance distracts from how hard they had tuned Lindy out at the end.

 

[5 Minute Major]

I just feel so bad for them. I’m glad they weren’t at home tonight and had to hear booing. That just might have sent them over the edge. I’d hate to see their psyche’s further hurt.

We dodged a bullet with that.

 

[kirby11]

I think distance distracts from how hard they had tuned Lindy out at the end.

Ah, I knew he'd lost the room somewhat before getting canned but wasn't able to catch many games at that particular point in time

 

[Chainshot]

I would like to thank the Sabres. Ekholm is on my fantasy team and tonight is the highest score he has had all season.

There are times when I want to dig back into the roster threads about Ekholm and run laps on people who doubted. Then I realize that would require me to infract me for flaming and that just wouldn't work - not enough personalities at odds to manage that.

Yeah that is why I need long breaks from posting. I can give you credit in that regard. Not only do you know what you're talking about but you some how manage to not be dick about it.

 

[BuffaloGooner]

This is the second time this group of players has flat out quit on a goaltender

 

[Chainshot]

I will admit, I hit backspace a lot. A LOT.

 

[toddkaz]

This team should have gotten rid of the dead weight long ago. You don't keep guys around that don't want a play.

I know I know its depth and they are helping
