plenzmd1 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) I think Disco Dan is fine. My impression of him was he had a goalie that sucked in the playoffs. I mean Fleury was off the charts bad for 3 or 4 years in a row. 3 years ago, Disxo would have been thought of in same vein as Babcock. Funny as this year Fleury was great in the playoffs , and injuries just killed the Quins. Edited May 28, 2015 by plenzmd1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 @DarrenDreger Pens didn't seek compensation when NJ hired Shero, but Bruins did for Chiarelli hire in Edmtn. Pitt may want pick from Buf for Bylsma. @Mackey_Trib Can confirm @DarrenDreger's tweet that the Penguins will likely seek compensation for Bylsma. Big question, I'm told, is when pick comes. BS move by the Pens IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 Is this a new thing in contracts? Is it maybe because there is no offset language in these contracts? It's new to the NHL, but it should be amended with exceptions for executives and coaches who are fired or relieved of duties. @DarrenDreger Sounds like dispute/clarity over draft pick compensation is one of the few things holding up the Sabres hiring Bylsma. Can't be deal breaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 If it has to go to mediation to determine the compensation, the Shero situation should work in our favor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 @TSNBobMcKenzie Clearly, there shouldn't be compensation for "fired" coaches/execs. "Compensation" is getting out from under remaining financial obligation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 It cant be more than what the Leafs had to give up for Babcock which was a 3rd CBF It'll be a 3rd round pick in 2016 or later since the Sabres don't have a 3rd in the upcoming draft.

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Share Posted May 28, 2015 TSN: Bylsma can stand on his track record By Travis YostThe buzz around the potential hiring of Dan Bylsma – the Buffalo Sabres appear to be zeroing in on him as a candidate – continues to intrigue me. For a guy who won 63% of the regular season games he coached (and 55% of playoff games he coached), there’s an awful lot of talk about systemic and stylistic flaws he carries.

ricojes Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) I like the hire, but if we have to give up a pick, it's total BS. I believe that's what's holding up the official announcement... Just give them Ville Leino instead of a third... Edited May 28, 2015 by ricojes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
