Gettleman came in specifically stating he wasn't just going to throw everyone out and replace them with his own people.

And only an idiot would fire a head coach coming off that kind of season with a future looking bright.

Some may say only an idiot would extend a coach who displayed coaching concerns in 2011, 2012, and to open 2013.....all 3 seasons showed some repeative questionable HC decision making.

and we see it again now in 2014.

Some of you should read through this thread.

 

 

I like post # 173 in that thread - the Creepster

 

 

Sorry guys much as Id like RR to suceed Im not buying in to him yet as a HC. We got some very lucky breaks this year that won us games,  had not a damn thing to do with RR and his coaching decisions.

I still think Dave gets a lot of hype....too much.

Dave is the one who extended Ron too soon. Dave is the one who thought renting a DE was pretty much worth downgrading an OL, secondary, and ST by large margins. Dave is the one who just had one of his draft picks essentially stolen.

First round picks IMO aren't how you judge a GM. Dave gets "meh" from me so far. I still think his vision is exactly what we have watched in NY. A very in consistent product. Yeah, they lucked into some rings. I don't think NY is the model despite the rings.

All valid points. Im not sitting here saying dave will do this, this, and this or that he has been awesome. Im pretty much just saying im excited to see how he will put this team together going forward and what it will look like when hurneys finger prints are gone. Sure im optimistic but its more just curiosity of what kind of different team we are looking at.

And i now think gettleman wasnt trying to piece together this team for a run this year. I think hes got the fututre 100% in mind.

Edited the OP to add a connection I left out...

 

Quick trivia question: Who was Jim Kelly's backup during the glory years with the Bills?

 

Hint: He's known for leading two of the biggest comebacks in NFL history.  He was also the very first starting quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, and he's considered a potential head coaching candidate for next season.

Frank Riech? If I spelled it right.

Frank Reich in the 1992 AFC wildcard led the Buffalo Bills to a 41-38 victory in OT against the Houston Oilers (Tennessee Titans).also,the Bills were behind by 32pts at one point in the game making it the greatest come from behind victory in NFL history.

Gettleman is nothing like Hurney.

Don't know that yet in reality.

Him being hired and told you have to straighten out x, y, and z is a job assignment. Not loving all Hurney guys doesn't mean he won't overly show love to his guys once they get established.

This was his first real offseason. You could easily argue what hurt us most was the front offices decision to "over invest " at one postion (DE) at a clear detriment to the rest of the team. Being against the Hardy tag can be viewed for the same reasons as being against signing 2 guys to featured RB money

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
