Nice letter and all but the only thing that matters is he wins. Sabres are at the point where these little PR things just don't matter.

As a former foster kid myself, I have a soft spot for anyone who's been in the system. I hope Ray Davis excels and congrats to him on making it this far.

ECHL affiliate Jacksonville had an epic collapse in their best of 5 playoff round. Up 2-0 in games, they lost the last 3, including the last 2 at home by scores of 4-1 and 4-0.

Can someone explain that card table to me? I can see people wanting to complain about that.

awesome! I finally catch a day when the Amerks are playing. I have a website to watch the games & everything but i keep forgetting when they play... Not today! Big big game tonight in a pivotal Game 3, after last game losing a heartbreaker in OT. In this Upstate NY battle, only 1 team can emerge victorious & claim the title of the Kings of NY. Lets CRUNCH the CRUNCH!

I had 3 different cars make left turns into my lane yesterday at maybe 5 car lengths maximum on 55-65 mph roads and proceed to go 35. I’m trying very hard not to teach my son certain words but these idiots make it tough. So far he is a big fan of my sarcastic horn, laying on it for a good 30 seconds.

Lindy Ruff has never done that before or gone to college like Kevyn Adams has Lindy Ruff is a hockey coach that is it. I think if you are asking me to speculate what is going on. I believe from the sad news that came out yesterday about Kim Pegula that Brandon Beane and Sean McDermott of the Buffalo Bills on the Buffalo football side. For the Buffalo Sabres side Kevyn Adams and now Lindy Ruff on the Buffalo hockey side they are doing above and beyond because of what Terry Pegula and the family is going through but that is just speculation on my part because I really don’t know in my opinion. Go Sabres! Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Nitpick alert: Resigns means that he is leaving.

I honestly didn’t really care who they got to coach as long as it wasn’t a noob. These guys can all do the job, who knows who is actually the right fit. I just don’t want all access points I have to the interwebs to be flooded with Rod the Bod nonsense.

If he has a camp and preseason like Benson, then he will most likely make the big club. Benson was just that much better than others in our bottom six last fall, that he couldn’t be ignored. He was remarkably consistent; from the first rookie scrimmage to the last preseason game, he showed the same high hockey IQ and tenacity on the ice. Benson was the better player than Savoie coming out of juniors, too. It would be a surprise to me if Savoie has the same success, but if he stays healthy, which he hasn’t been for either of his two camps so far, he certainly has a chance as the current talent level in the bottom six doesn’t set that high of a bar.

The open question for me is what happens if he does have an "eye popping" camp (your words)? What I can say about Benson is that whenever I watched him, I never felt that he was a liability. Quite the contrary, although his offensive stats were not impressive, his overall play was sound. In a season of a number of disappointments, he was a decisive positive for us. I'm not arguing one way or the other about Savoie making the big club. Whether he does or not the GM still needs to add more veterans from the outside.

Say we waited for Rod and the Canes go very deep into the playoffs. Meanwhile Ruff and several other prime candidates get scooped up. Then at the last second Brind'amour resigns with Carolina. How do you envision we blame Adams for botching the coaching search?

Starting to wonder if we could see 4 to 6 new players on the opening night roster Tuch, Cozens, Tage, Quinn, Benson , Greenway and JJP are pretty well guaranteed a spot at this point. my Guess is that Girgs is brought back as well I could see 3 vet UFAs brought in along with Savoie. If Kulich was a winger I'd have him with even odds with Savoie to be the 1 prospect to play opening night but since he isn't ill lean towards Savoie

Just outstanding.

Tinsel Adams. You won't believe what this dog looks like TODAY. Link

Good girl!

What's going on with Matthews? It seems ... bad.

Imo, he would have to have an eye popping camp to be considered for the big club. Lindy would most likely prefer to add a gritty vet or two as well, but that depends on his and KA’s ability to find and sign one. Anyway, I think it’s best to add Savoie to the prospect stew in the A and let them all cook together a while longer.

“Brind'Amour married Amy Biedenbach, the daughter of former North Carolina State University basketball standout and former UNC Asheville men's basketball coach, Eddie Biedenbach. The couple have one son together.” She’s a Carolinian.

Do you think his reputation is turning around a little bit? He stuck with Granato to the tune of the seventh most tenured coach in the NHL. The GM is going into year five. The arena upgrade process is starting. It appears his meddling has reduced (family situation contributed). He’s hanging out long term contracts. He’s only firing COO’s because they cannot keep it in their pants. Player facilities seem to be industry standard or better. While it isn’t a given that they’ll be a cap team this year…if they are, what are the complaints at this point?

Yep exactly You're talking about old people here that have trouble with the electronic board on the fridge that my lovely daughter thought we would love

The neurons have retrained themselves. inkman is rebuilt. He is the first five billion dollar uh... inkman.

Have you started smoking again or not? Just curious which state of mind you are in posting creativity like the bolded. That's an absolute classic. I think my brain will now autocorrect Lindy Ruff to "Coach of Christmas Past". Absolutely dy-no-mite.

Get the hell out of here during the summer though (hey, perfect for a hockey guy). Oh, and avoid that Durham half of the equation by any means necessary.
