Is John Tortorella a good idea for the Buffalo Sabres?

2025/12/20

Everyone is wondering if John Tortorella is the next man to stand behind the Buffalo Sabres bench, should the team move on from Lindy Ruff as head coach. Does it make sense for the Sabres to hire an old school type of coach like Tortorella at this age? Sneaky Joe looks back on Torts' time both with Jarmo Kekalainen in Columbus, but also his most recent stop in Philadelphia. What went wrong for Torts with the Flyers includes a message getting stale and a run in with a talented player.Plus, what went

The Buffalo Sabres are well rested, not playing since last weekend, are fired up from the GM news of the week, and play a very beatable opponent in the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday night. No excuses to get a win, and look good doing it in front of Buffalo Sabres fans. Sneaky Joe dives into the matchup with the Flyers, a team that lacks a superstar talent anywhere on the roster, but somehow finds themselves in a playoff spot. Despite the record, are the Flyers actually a better team than the

How does Columbus look back on the Jarmo Kekäläinen era during his 11 years as the team's GM? Sneaky Joe is joined by Jay Forster from Locked On Blue Jackets to take an in-depth look on new Sabres GM Jarmo Kekäläinen's time with the Blue Jackets. From big trades, to great drafting, Jarmo built a winning team in Columbus, the best the franchise has ever seen. However, there were certainly issues in the final years that led to Jarmo being fired by the Blue Jackets that hopefully he has learned from

The Buffalo Sabres got their GM in waiting in the boat when they brought Jarmo Kekäläinen in last spring, and it has resulted in a GM that has as good a background as the Sabres could have asked for. A deep dive into Jarmo's career in Columbus and St. Louis shows a great talent evaluator that drafted a contending team with the Blues, and then the Blue Jackets. Also, an aggressive trader that acquired the likes of Artemi Panarin, Matt Duchene, and Seth Jones. And someone that shocked the NHL world

Jarmo Kekäläinen met with the media for the first time as GM of the Buffalo Sabres and one of the biggest takeaways was he would not commit to Lindy Ruff and the coaching staff staying on or the present hockey department sticking around in it's current form. Will the Sabres make another move? Kekäläinen also had a lot to say on the future of Alex Tuch and his contract, his relationship with Terry Pegula and how much autonomy he has to run his hockey department, and his mentality with trades

The Buffalo Sabres have finally made the move fans were waiting for, firing GM Kevyn Adams after five and a half seasons leading the team's hockey department to zero playoff appearances. Jarmo Kekalainen has been promoted as his replacement from the seat of Senior Advisor. Adams from the outset appeared to be an underqualified man for the job and that definitely showed to be the case, with countless mistakes both in public and with hockey moves.

Noah Ostlund has had a very strong rookie season with a combination of strong defensive play, and an improving offensive game playing third line center. With the Sabres getting healthier, Ostlund has been sent to Rochester due to a numbers crunch. Should the Sabres have tried harder to find Ostlund a spot in the lineup? Sneaky Joe says Jordan Greenway should've been the odd man out, instead of putting Greenway on the top line. Plus, the Sabres are putting Tage Thompson back at center, and the lineup

The Buffalo Sabres lost yet another game in which they outshot their opponent, this time to the Winnipeg Jets by a score of 4-1. What explains the Sabres playing so well and not getting the results? Sneaky Joe points to Lindy Ruff's system showing that it works, but not for the players Kevyn Adams has put on the team. Josh Norris has his worst game as a member of the Buffalo Sabres, but there shouldn't be cause for concern. And is it finally time the Sabres cut down to two goaltenders for the rest

The Buffalo Sabres had an incredibly frustrating night against the Philadelphia Flyers that featured it's best two players both dropping the ball. Tage Thompson had maybe the worst effort play of his entire career, while Rasmus Dahlin was ejected for a dirty hit from behind on Trevor Zegras. How much criticism do the Sabres' best two players deserve, not just for this game, but for the entire season? Will Dahlin get suspended for his hit on Zegras?

The Buffalo Sabres are within shouting distance of both second place and third place in the Atlantic Division, despite winning just six of their last ten games. As the Sabres have picked up 12 of a possible 20 points, that has been good enough to gain ground on everyone in the division, except Tampa. Sneaky Joe dives in on the standings, how bad the Bruins, Red Wings, and Canadiens have looked, and figures out that the Sabres likely need 30 wins from here until the end of the year to make the

Josh Norris made his return to the Buffalo Sabres lineup against the Winnipeg Jets and put on a show with two goals and an assist, including a sick breakaway goal. Norris' return was a display of what the Sabres could be getting in their highest paid forward, IF he stays healthy going forward. The Zach Benson - Josh Norris - Tage Thompson line played exactly the way Lindy Ruff had been envisioning when he put them together in the preseason. Norris and Tage are the perfect partners for Benson on a

The Buffalo Sabres are getting their #1 center, at least on paper, back into the lineup in time to play the Winnipeg Jets. Josh Norris has played just four games for the Sabres, but is stepping right into a big role at the top of the lineup as he comes back from injury. What Norris returning does though, is moves Tage Thompson back to the wing, which Sneaky Joe does not believe is his best position. Can Norris help the powerplay? Will he play penalty kill?

The Buffalo Sabres were embarrassed at home with Terry Pegula in attendance by a score of 5-0 to the New Jersey Devils. A sellout KeyBank Center crowd was left to chant to "sell the team" and "fire Adams" as the team was getting routed. Despite severely outshooting New Jersey and having the better of the chances, Jake Allen outplayed Alex Lyon by a lot and the Sabres couldn't get the goals they needed.There is simply nothing left to do with this team other than Kevyn Adams getting fired.

UPL getting himself out of control on a couple of different plays cost the Sabres two goals that they could not afford to give up. Sneaky Joe campaigns for this being the final straw for UPL's Sabres career. However, there is a trade rumor that implies Kevyn Adams is not thinking the same way.Plus, another great

The Buffalo Sabres have now won four of their last five games after a win over the top-seed Carolina Hurricanes, led by a tremendous performance from the line of Jason Zucker - Ryan McLeod - Jack Quinn. Plus, a strong performance from Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen was critical in the Sabres win. However, we'd be crazy to not gush over Beck Malenstyn's highlight reel goal which gave the Sabres a 3-1 lead in the second period.

The Buffalo Sabres have been searching for a #1 goalie since Ryan Miller was traded over a decade ago. Is it possible they have one in Colten Ellis? Lindy Ruff is presently treating Ellis like a #1, as he gets his fourth start in five games against the Calgary Flames.

Are Ostlund and Isak Rosen playing well enough to warrant keeping them in the lineup permanently? Lindy Ruff will have tough decisions to make when Jason Zucker, Zach Benson, and Josh Norris return.Plus, how the Sabres completely shutdown Connor McDavid and the Oilers' top line, deploying Tyson Kozak, Jordan
