Timmy didn't exactly have his finger on the pulse of what makes a locker room tick. I'm done making fun of Lehner once I found out his instability was clinical, but his tenure is still on Murray. I'm glad Bogo seems to do better based on atmosphere and that KO is healthy, but Drunken Donut was clearly a mistake and a waste for the Sabres. Kane was a mixed bag and ultimately not worth the trouble. Murray was basically Dan Snyder with an even worse personality.
Maybe without all of this crap Dahlin ends up elsewhere so it is hard to play the what if game, but with even an average NHL GM the Sabres post tank climb goes much more smoothly and rapidly. Murray was the absolute worst and if Pegula had retained him we'd still have a disaster.
