    Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    Ted knows he's the walking dead, so why should he not try and go nuclear & get to 28 before being canned ?? Ted coached the leagues worst team so there's no where to go for him, **** can him not before it's too late !! Tank or stank !!

    I hope Murray does that and then I would like Betman to step in and take the Sabres first pick away.

    Someone has to protect the integrity of the game.

    In your dreams, watch the Sabres tank and enjoy their new found future success.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    I wish someone could explain why tanking is dishonorable.

    It's a friggen game. A GAME. People go to work every day and do things they don't love, why are athletes exempt? Get over it. Oh Teddy Nolan etc your game is so sacred give me a break. The only reason these games exist is because of fans and we want to see a winning product. We finally have a GM who legit is willing to do what is necessary and the damn coach is going to blow it.

    And spiked, you were all about the Bills tanking but somehow the Sabres is shameful? I mean I know you are just trolling but come on dude some of us have known you for a while. It's a silly tired act.

    These sports have been deliberately changed to be "star-centered" so to pretend that stars aren't necessary and worth tanking for is just false. In the NFL you absolutely have to have a superb QB, and in the NHL/NBA you absolutely have to have top studs in your lineup. They convoluted the rules this way and create masturbatory commercials etc about these stars, so nobody should be surprised. There is zero incentive to not tank if your team isn't close to a spot.

    Oh and you really cared about the integrity of the NFL.

    You are a joke dude and one weak troll.

    We've been watching you for years and it is a tired act.

    You know was well as we do tanking can create great teams, it happens all the time.

    Any idea about the "integrity" of the game is just absurd. I'm sick of hearing about "integrity" as a Bills and Sabres fan. I want to win, and you know you do with the Bills too.

    Save it.

    What?! I have never heard this before. Please tell us again how the Sabres are killing the integrity of the game.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    Nolan has the entire team bought in and ready to kill the hopes and dreams of the Sabres ever getting a generational talent on this team again.

    Buffalo is going to finish in 28th place and may very well draft 4th overall and have to psych itself up for Strome.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    you just know it isnt happening.

    Hanafin, Marner or Strome....

    take your pick because McEichel isn't coming to Buffalo.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    One can't fire a coach because their goalies seem to always play great and they are at risk of not finishing last.

    I have no problem trading guys in last year of contract in a rebuild but the guys on the ice need to play to win and so does the coach. It is wrong for an owner or GM to ask otherwise by firing the coach or asking them not to try.

    Personally, I feel Arizona and Toronto are hurting the integrity of the league a lot more than Buffalo. Arizona traded away their top two players including Yandle who is in his prime and not on last year of contract in order to tank. To tank by trading away players in prime and not in last year of contract because they are good players is worse than what Buffalo is doing. Arizona can't even score goals and have 3 goals in last 5 games.

    Toronto I feel is the worst of all because they are not even putting in any effort. Buffalo may not have talent but the players are at least trying to win. Can't say that about Toronto. I have never seen a professional team not try like the Leafs are doing.

    You do what's best for the organization, Nolan needs to get in line and get to losing now or get the ax.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    After the trade deadline Nolan told Lindbach now is your chance to prove to everyone you can play, And now's your chance to make them eat crow.

    He also told the guys this is your platform to show the rest of the NHL what you can do, You may not get signed here, But you may get a job somewhere.

    Don't let this chance pass you by.

    He's an evil man, And he must be stopped.

    Re: Fire Ted now, there's no reason to wait

    Nolan is going to end up becoming one of the most hated men in the history of Buffalo sports.

    What's ironic about that is his career could be viewed by some as being akin to your typical WNY... a victim of circumstances bigger than them, and when he tried to stand up for himself multiple times throughout his career, the man kept him down.

    how many WNYers would love to show the man up?

    Teddy is about to do exactly that.

    for as much as I want McEichel, I am rooting for Ted. I think he's a great coach.
