While the Canadiens are moving in the right direction after years of suffering, the Sabers are busy rebuilding with seemingly no end in sight. New York State hasn't made the playoffs since 2013, and despite the countless additions in recent years, the culture of the game hasn't changed, and neither have the results. You won't be surprised to find that the Sabers aren't off to a great start this season. The score is 1-3, and fans have already expressed their disappointment by throwing T-shirts on the ice and selling $4 tickets. What does it take to wake up the team? Change of CEO?
Is Kevin Adams on the hot seat in Buffalo?
Could Tortorella be next in line to become a head coach? Presented by: bet365 (@bet365ca)#bet365 #NeverOrdinaryhttps://t.co/PaBRd5n3nR | USE CODE: NATION@tyleryaremchuk | @CarterHatton4 | @JeffMarek pic.twitter.com/A455UVHQjp– Daily Faceoff (@DailyFaceoff) October 14, 2025
[ content-ads] Sportsnet columnist Jeff Marek has opened the door for the Sabers to find former Columbus Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen to replace current general manager Kevin Adams. Marek went even further, suggesting that John Tortorella could come in and shake things up. The two men worked together in Ohio and Buffalo. Changes must occur first at the management level. It's not right to have so many good rebounds but not be able to rebuild the team. Then the new head coach shouldn't be called John Tortorella. I have a lot of respect for his career, but it's time to move on. His methods have not worked before, and the results are short-lived. There are so many good young coaches waiting in the AHL who could do the job, as we saw with Spencer Carbery last year. His arrival in Washington brought a much-needed breath of fresh air. The Sabers don't have that kind of talent, but they do have players like Rasmus Dahlin and Tage Thompson to build around.
