Après un début de saison 2023/24 décevant, les Sabres devront peut-être envisager quelques changements pour maintenir le navire debout. Don Granato, leur entraîneur-chef, a subi beaucoup de critiques pour sa contre-performance et son travail est en danger. Est-ce que cela devrait être le cas, et les Sabres devraient-ils le renvoyer et passer à autre chose ?

Should Don Granato be fired?
The thing that annoys me is that this team has soooo much talent, but they can’t use it properly.
Granato is a chump
They had playoff expectations and failed, plain and simple. Time to move on
Every team knows how to stop the Sabres and Granato's system! Fire Granato asap! Time to spend some $$ Pegulas and go get a VETERAN coach with emphasis on D and being tougher in front of both nets ! Gallant or Berube would work for me and hopefully when Granato is fired , D coach Marty Wilford will be fired too. Hire Sens head coach DJ Smith to take over for Marty!
Look at how a coaching and systems change worked out in Vancouver. They fired Bruce Boudreau this time last year i believe and look where they are now. The Sabres have just as much if not more talent than the Canucks do.
Thanks for the video , much appreciated.
Let him go. It's too much of a regression from last year. Unacceptable.
I say give him the rest of the year and if we don't make playoffs then yes time to move on
Thanks but no thanks, good luck out there meatballs
You touched on many of the defenseman but I didn’t hear anything about Mattias Samuelsson! He’s afraid to hit this year and is a turnover machine! What a disappointment after his big contract!
Team is far too soft. Yes they had success last year but this team has no grit, no mean to their game. Time to move on
Should have traded olofson last summer, kept girgs and okie , stay the course on goalies, no significant improvement on D over the summer. None of our amassed undersized 1st round draft picks NHL ready, Benson playing all year, power play ineptness, consistently going down 2-0 in the first period? I gotta believe a good deal of this is due to inept coaching. Couple that with a GM that refuses to bring any muscle to the team and you get the current edition of the Sabres. Absolutely sickening
Hey kid, I'm not sure who you are. But you're really good at this. Great show buddy.
Ellis and the rest of the assistants are terrible. Granato is a good coach, served his purpose, but it's time to move on. Why wait until the offseason when a good NHL coach is ready to be hired right now?
Should they… absolutely. Will they… 😔.. not likely this season unless the wheels reallly fall off.
Im hoping we can convince peca during the off season.
I disagree I think signing clifton and joshnson was a good move at that moment b.c our team does lack strong checking d men, we have all young skill d who intimidate noone and half the time do not produce on either end; sadly both signings just did not produce but i agree with what he was trying to do. forwards like greenway okposo all these traveler types need to go(though i do like robinson b.c hes fast and gritty which is kinda nice) saying "the D stinks on this team and it isn't the payers" is straight up a joke, the players are the ones on the ice; Dahlin dosn't play well in our zone he gives up the puck and plays with it and loses it and doesn't even like playing D("I want to play free" he says. power is a P&ssy and refuses to hit or take hits in our zone and is lackluster in the o zone and the rest follow suit.we have weak braindead D men. I will agree matt ellis like wtf is he doing coaching let alone the D? lol maybe don should just be a development coach for rochester and ellis can go sit on a couch.I also agree on the pp, like we always stay on the outside, noone takes the puck to the net its painful
Granato is a good coach. He's just not an NHL coach. Kevin Adams job should also be scrutinized. This last off season reminded me of the Darcy Regier afraid to make a move days.
Like you said great development coach but 100% has reached the ceiling here
yes
Can we get Quenville?
Its not HC or players. Its the culture! Until the entire culture of the sabres changes this will be their fate. The only time the culture was different was when Hasek was here, and Drury/Briere era. Drury said it best, "why is there no photo of the cup in the lockeroom?" They never believed that could actually be their goal. This team now needs a Dylan Larkin type of leader. Its embarrising that this team is so lost. However, all the old core pieces and etc need to change. We could have eichel or McDavid, and there would be no change with this team. The Detroit Lions have no legit hall of famers that you could pencil in for the near future. However, the entire coaching staff and higher ups became believers and followed through. Like the wings, are ahead of the sabres, the lions are ahead of the Bills. Its that bloody culture that makes the difference! Coaching wise we need a Brindamour behind the bench to motivate these guys. Until then the team better become the best golf players in the NHL, because they will have their entire careers in the offseason to be that good. Its so sad and Buffalo deserves so much more. However, its not gonna happen.
Let's see what happens…
I wish you would’ve given some credit to JJ Peterka… he’s improved significantly.
Pegulas are cheap and haven’t done anything right since taking over. It’s never going to change Adams has built a team full of soft players
I have not seen any defensive setups other than Chase the Puck. Chase the Puck is not a good defensive strategy. Power sucks as a D-man in the NHL. Power should be a forward or traded for a decent D-man. Matt and Don need to go.
I really like Granato…but as an assistant coach. We all know he can turn a player playing like a 4 (out of 10) into a 6 or 7. He improves players dramatically. We need new assistant coaching, especially for special teams and a head coach that will hold these millionaires accountable for their sub par play. Their whole system needs to be retooled as Granato tried for the first 33 games to be a defensive minded team (which failed) now he is switching them back to last years style but its not consistent (like they also were last year). You are absolutely correct in saying Granato has lost the room. He is too nice (even see it in his post game interviews)
Sure we could fire Granato but the question is can we get someone better to come to this elephant graveyard of a franchise ?
