The return of Lindy Ruff.

[JATMtheJATM]

Ruff is on the hotseat in Dallas. Bylsma seems to be a little flat. What if Dallas fired Lindy, and buffalo let bylsma walk. Would you want Lindy back?

I would, for a few reasons. One, he was fired because the old core tuned him out. That core is gone. New faces, new team. Two, new GM who seems to have a new outlook on team building.

Anyways, I'm just spitballing here.

Sure, what the hell, why not. What's the worst that can happen, we don't make the playoffs, or end up in last place overall? Pffft.

Not exactly a Claude Julien in for Therrien move.

But I always liked Ruff and thought his critics were under-educated hockey fans.

He wouldn't be my first choice, just because I hate the dump-and-chase offensive strategy that he and Bylsma both employ.

Ruff has his downside. Didn't know how to rotate goalies well, but in his defense, his backups after Marty left were terrible

Maybe Ruff can find another Hasek and overstay his welcome by another 7 years.

Re: The return of Lindy Ruff.

I've always wondered how Ruff would do if he wasn't hamstrung by Golisano's cheapness and Regier being, well, Regier.

Speak of overstaying a welcome...

Ruff as an assistant coach to work on our PK be nice but not as a HC again.

Do us a favor stay off the main Bills board, you're lost there. I've played more hockey games than everyone here combined. This is by far the weakest collective board for hockey intelligence I've ever seen. You guys should consider to be blessed I even post here, wet Willys for you all.

I'm lost at the main bills board? That's odd, because I don't post at the bills board. Because I don't care about the bills. So how I'm lost there is beyond me. If you are going to make something up, it would be best for it to at least look accurate.

As for your brilliant hockey mind, well, perhaps it's true, though we've seen zero evidence of you having even a basic understanding of the sport, so maybe it's time to step up your game

I'll get it someday, then I can be just like you.
