  • Episode 83: Don Granato's firing and what's next for the Sabres
    Apr 19 2024

    We all knew there'd be some changes, but the Sabres firing of Don Granato and the feedback from the players in the days after illuminated what went wrong. Lance and Joe will break all of it down:

    - What went wrong
    - Why the move was made
    - What GM Kevyn Adams said he's looking for from the next coach
    - Who he should take the longest (and shortest) looks at
    - The case for Rochester Americans coach Seth Appert

    Buckle in, it's their longest episode to date, but it's more than worth the full listen.

  • Episode 82: Coaching, the power play, and everything else
    Apr 4 2024

    Lance and Joe saved up a lot of their words for the latest episode. This time around, the guys talk about Don Granato, his future, what could and should happen, and what's the best way for the Sabres to approach a vital offseason as well as their future.

    They'll also talk about JJ Peterka's breakout, particularly teaming up with Tage Thompson and Alex Tuch on the top line. They'll also really get into it about the power play and how it's been a bit of a mess for a lot longer than you'd think it has.

    The guys also talk about the offseason, Peyton Krebs, the Amerks, and much more in their longest episode to date.

    Thanks for listening and thanks for letting us know you're enjoying the pod.

  • Episode 81: Sabres beyond the trade deadline
    Mar 11 2024

    The guys are back and even though they managed to get a bit too tied up with the trade deadline, Lance and Joe are back to discuss what the Buffalo Sabres pulled off. They get into what it meant to send Kyle Okposo to a Stanley Cup contender and what he meant to the team and organization.

    They'll also dig into one of the biggest trades of the entire deadline in which the Sabres sent Casey Mittelstadt to Colorado for defenseman Bo Byram. The guys will get into what that move does and how it sets up what they'll be up to for the offseason and how vital it becomes to find a third-line center and how they'll attack things to get them to the playoffs next year.

    Wait... don't they still have a chance at that this year...? Don't worry, that gets discussed as well.

    Thanks for listening and thanks for letting us know you're enjoying the pod.
