And Roy had been offered the coaching job of Colorado 3 years ago also, I'm sure that played into it also. Roy also has any final say on any hockey move Colorado makes too.
And Rolston was a winning coach with the Sabres last year. You seem to forget we started out 6-10-1 and finished the season, 21-21-6 A 15-11-5 record in 31 games under Rolston.
What if we finish this season dead last, then next year under Rolston we finished first in the league, are you going to flip flop and then say he's a great coach? Look at the game we played against San Jose. Someone lit a match under their ass for that game. I doubt it was them, I'm sure Rolston's practice the day before had something to do with it.
No doubt the writing was on the wall for Roy. He initially didn't want to move to Colorado, that's why he didn't take it three years ago.
Time will tell exactly how good Rolston will be. I honestly don't think they will be any good under him. He seems to not be worried about how competitive they are.
He wasn't hired by Darcy to win games. He was hired to develop players which is a bad decision by Darcy. You don't develop your teenagers in the NHL, that's what the AHL is for. Especially when most of them are not NHL ready, by any means. This horrible record is by Darcy's design. I'm sure it's working better than he even expected. It reminds me of the movie Major League, where the owner does everything possible to be the worse team in the league.
There is absolutely no way this team will be first next season....

It's a phrase that basically means, if you wanna see the Sabres at the top, turn the rankings.
