Gameday : Devils @ Sabres – Pregame Thoughts

Gameday : Devils @ Sabres – Pregame Thoughts

Hi good afternoon all the boys continue their h stand as they host the New Jersey Devils in a game today that’s the only game in the NHL coming up I’d like to know who schedules these things because if I’m right there’s 15 games tomorrow 15 I’m pretty sure it’s 15 and

There’s one today like who schedules these things and thinks you know what I got an idea we’ll get more ratings if we put 15 games out there and won the game day before like this isn’t the first time this year this has happened all right guys I have been bedridden for

About 36 hours shoulder and uh I and the truth is I didn’t want to be negative I didn’t want to put out a video where I’m just going to be negative and upset but I seen last game those type of games are I always say it’s easy to lose a beating and

Bounce back from it but the problem is the way we got beaten last game the early UPL looked lost in Nets he just did I mean we can s we want upl’s the reason we’re here he’s the reason we’re not in this right now because he was

Terrible last game the four goals he let in were I’d say three of them were stoppable Levi I hope we’ll get the start today I hope so I I I’m of the thinking that we got to think about the future of this team not just because

Upl’s had a good year that we continue to ride him right now he’s not giv us solid goenda he’s let him what 15 goals his last seven periods no no we’ve got to go with Levi right now Levi was Stellar in Nets he’s the one bright spot of last game and the

Truth is I believe he’s the future of the team I just do I you’re never going to convince me that upl’s the future of this team I’ll never buy into it I just don’t think mentally he’s as strong as Levi I don’t believe he is you’re never

Going to convince me of it for all you UPL supporters you’ll never convince me of it it’s just I have to see it after 10 years and then give in and say you were right UPL was the better goalie in his career than Levi was cuz I doubt

That’s going to happen I really do so right now guys uh we just got to try to win and not get carried away about thinking about the playoffs just try to win and see what this franchise is made of because right now we’re in the midst of a 500 season it’s been frustrating

I honestly believe and I’ll continue to say it guys if we made a coaching change we’d be in this race we’d be in this race right now if Don Granata was not behind the bench I’m getting sick of him I’m getting sick of seeing him you guys

Know what that means when you get sick of seeing him in press conferences and the same old crap that comes out of his mouth win or lose it’s the same thing I’m sick of the routine Krueger was easier to hate cuz he was just stupid you know Granado’s a better hockey man

Than Krueger but Granado’s worn out as welcome I believe as as the Buffalo Sabers head coach I really do I’ll go on record saying that if I’m wrong next year and the Sab start like 17 and three I’ll say wow okay but this guy doesn’t know anything about getting a team ready

Physically for a game they’re never prepared guys they’re never prepared and that’s on the coaching you guys can say it’s the players you’re wrong I’m telling you it’s on the coaching the coaching has to have you at that point that Brink that your job’s on the line

As a player you’re going to be riding the bench and forget your next contract you know what I mean you can’t you can’t mess around with what’s been happening and continue to mess around and I feel like that’s what the Sabres have done to us this year I feel like they just

Continue to screw around this year nobody’s held accountable and I really do believe that there’s a lot of this is this team when you look at them on paper and you look at the talent on this team we didn’t have this 10 years ago guys when we started this tank

Go look at that roster and look at this roster no they’re not tanking like that but you want to compare let’s say a non-playoff team to another non-playoff team this team is built very well and I am not impressed with Adams because I don’t think he has the guts folks to

Fire Granado I don’t think he does I think he’ll just pretend everything’s okay and they’re going to go with the excuses to youth movement which I agree I do agree they’re right people say that’s not an excuse no more no it is you’re wrong when you’re the

Youngest team in hockey you have any excuse in the book you do what you don’t have an excuse for is not going out and acquiring veteran help to help these kids along the way that’s what you have no excuse for overpay you know overpay with with something you got to give I

And I you guys know I’m a stickler to keeping everything we own but right now the franchise is in trouble not just the team the franchise you can feel we’re in disarray again and we cannot we’re not going to go and start tanking and being last overall again those days

Are long gone that’s not happening but to get over the hump and stay over the hump and become a professional hockey team that’s respected around the league you have to act accordingly not have a general manager that sits on his ass when it’s time to make changes you got

To have the guts to make the changes I said it years ago guys firing Lindy was a stupid boneheaded move I knew it then the guy’s an excellent coach and regar believe it or not that one-w punch we were set we were okay we were contending we were building a team

You guys seen we had two separate teams we let’s face it we should have won the cup in 06 really if it wasn’t for the damn injuries right and then you had a 99 team that wasn’t as talented as 2006 but maybe it was more grittier with the greatest goalie that

Ever lived and then you have what I believe could be a future Hall of Fame goalie and Ryan Miller and um and a good young cast Leading The Way with Connelly and Brier and jury and these these guys it was a fun team to watch guys it was back then

Those were good times and that those teams were orchestrated the only guy we had on the ‘ 06 team compared to the 99 team was Jay mcke so don’t tell me regar and Bri Brier regir and Lindy weren’t a good one-w punch because they proven it twice

With two separate teams in a seven-year span 98 we make the Conference Final 99 we make the final you know and then 2006 semi-finals again 2007 semifinals again so think of it guys do the numbers in in a nine-year span we make the final four four times under

That regime under this regime now to be fair this regime is only really in its third year let’s be fair about that really I would say third full year you had the first year the apostal letter to the fans thank God he’s gone then we had last year the big Improvement the

Push the emergence of Devon Levi last year and in this year the step backwards so the fans are frustrated Pula the fans are frustrated get on it don’t pretend it’s not happening just because you’re selling tickets get on it you’re going to wind up having to relocate the team if you

Continue thinking that way because they have to get on this now like right now Kevin Adams should be on the phone trying to make some sort of deal where we lose but we get what we need we lose the deal we give too much but we get

What we need this is what this team needs to do guys honestly they cannot continue to think this is okay I don’t think they do I think they know the heat is on guys they know that the it’s hot in the kitchen right now and they know it you know I’m

Glad the fans boot them off good for you guys good I’m glad the fans did that as much as I’m a guy that doesn’t like to be negative send a message send a message to management we’re not going to we’re not idiots we’re not stupid we know what hockey’s about we’ve had this

Team half a century we understand when something’s really wrong internally don’t think you’re fooling us with these stupid press conferences which drives me nuts Guys these dumbass press conferences where they’re talking about who’s injured and he’s back and like they avoid the real subjects why don’t

You know this is how stupid some of the the guys out there are the the the media they don’t they I’ve never seen them sit down and say why is it your team is dead last in the league and hitting year after year they’re not this year but why

Why weren’t they why weren’t they called out on that for years why why cuz we’re in the soft era of hockey it is a wuss era now it’s not like it used to be but there’s still a there’s a physical element to hockey come on you know there’s a physical

Element that can change the momentum of a hockey game and what drives me crazy it really does drive me crazy is how they just don’t publicly hold themsel accountable and and the players kissing ass to the coach those guys are kids that don’t understand what it took for guys like

Berso or or or Chara and guys like that to win the Stanley Cup to win the Stanley Cup guys that have won the Stanley Cup will tell you that’s the wrong approach is loving your coach I’ve seen some of you guys talk about brendor guys I wouldn’t take

Brendam Moore if he was if he came here and coached for free okay I want to put up that on the record I wouldn’t take brind deore no chance no thank you that team’s dead last in the league and hitting again the last thing we need is

A coach coming over here coach coaching the same way okay just with a younger Squad coaching the same way a non-con team that goes nowhere in the playoffs is what we’ll have no thanks no no you get a coach in here that’s a hard ass that wants every element of this game played

Properly till its fullest potential from every player okay like a a John torella give me give me John tarella any day over brind deore in a series any day it’s it’s a no-rain because tarella is old school he knows every aspect of the game he knows the

Tricks he knows how to play the media he knows all of it you got to get somebody like that in here you got to get a guy in here that’s tough rough won’t talk you guys have talked about baru it’s not a bad idea it’s not I’d be open to it an

Ex NHL Scrapper Stanley Cup coach took a team that looked like they were going nowhere to the Stanley Cup all of a sudden got that young goalie believing in himself so there’s a lot of the coaches out there and yes I’m open-minded to quinnville absolutely we don’t know what

Happened behind the scenes please don’t say you did nobody knows what happened behind the scenes in Chicago I’m not one of these guys that I believe everything that’s put in front of my face I know that legal people bury crap I’ve lived it okay guys they were

Trying to get me on $1.6 million fine and two years in jail once upon a time and it was thrown out eventually because I knew I was innocent and I there was no way I I was and the lawyers I had stole the money and I didn’t care I said I’m going

And you know what God made it work that’s the way I see it God gave me a chance and said you know what this isn’t right and for some reason it just worked out the way I hoped it would it just kind of fell into place everything just

Like a domino effect guys we can’t trust all the time what you hear in the media you just can’t okay Batman’s a lawyer you think he doesn’t hide crap behind the scenes no he doesn’t rig the he does not rig the the the lottery draft that

Is some of the dumbest things I hear Fans Say and I can’t believe some fans actually believe that I mean but guys I’m gone on long enough and talked uh long enough you guys get where I’m coming from I guess when it comes to change we need change and we need it now

And I don’t think we’re going to get it so what do we do we root them on that’s our job but what else do we do do we pretend it’s okay these press conferences I don’t know drives me nuts I’m ranting I’m stopping there I’ll see

You guys in the post game if you didn’t get to see me well there you go two videos in one okay sorry guys I ranted I’ll see you in the postgame tonight I hope the boys win if they don’t win I’m not going to stress about it cuz the

Truth is of all the teams that are out I’m cheering for Jersey anyway so if the Sabres lose this in regulation I’m cheering for the Devils I’d like to see the Devils get in I’ll tell you right now guys I called it Detroit’s going to lose five in a row

They’ve lost two they’re going to lose the next three okay see if I’m right about that one see you in the post game

Hey folks, the Sabres host the Devils in a game where it leaves us all wondering..will the start this one prepared ? .. or will they come out flat like they have done so often this year once again ?? ..thanks for watching 🦬
