Pfft! Like there's even a question he'll sign with us. This is Hockey Heaven!

The tank being over does not mark the end of losing, just the end of trying to lose. I also can envision the disappointment when don't get McDavid.

I need to dig up the original TP as new owner thread. I predicted he'd be a villain in two years. Was I wrong?

Being aggressive keeping Byrd would involve taking his family hostage. Sometimes people don't want stay. They signed Williams and moved on. Teams lose players, even good teams. They get over it.

Yes I do find it amusing, in fact. It's hilarious to me how the answer is always to fire everyone after every season. Maybe it's because every other regime failed after 3 years that we just want to flush it now and not give it any time. Do I think the Bills are well run? I do now. I think Whaley is a solid GM executing a well thought out plan. The current regime has nothing to do with the playoff drought. In fact they are being more aggressive than ever to end that drought. You would think fans would appreciate that. But some people would rather be depressed, I guess.

:lol: The endless lament. "Nothing will change until (insert names here) are gone! Like a broken record.

Don't forget there are entertainment and dining options near the arena. Helium Comedy Club and Lagerhaus 95. Maybe a band at Buffalo Iron Works. Oh, 716 in the Harborcenter should be open by then.

Batista?? :w00t:

What owner of a multi-million dollar company doesn't need to know what his employees are doing?

Just started a new hash tag: #BNsexist.

You know what would piss me off more than not finishing last? FInishing last and not picking first. Kind of like this year.

The 3rd jerseys before the current ones featured the "Buffalo" lifted right off the Pepsi cap logo. I suspect the reason there has never been a Bisons night is that the FNC is a venue that is contracted to pour only Coca Cola products.

Same here. I learned to love hockey from the old wooden "greys" of the pre-expansion Aud watching the Bisons. I even own a red "Pepsi cap" Jersey. I have said for years, and even sent a suggestion to Ted Black, that the Sabres should honor the Bisons. I don't know why they never did. Although the prior 3rd jerseys are a small homage to the Bisons, borrowing the "Buffalo" font from the old Pepsi logo.

Or "Start Wearing Purple."

And he was a great locker room presence.

Story says they found a golf ball sized tumor. Geez, why did you let that go so long? Did you not notice? As someone who earned a living with my voice I would obsess over anything not normal that I felt. Luckily it was never something like this.

I finally listened to the presser. My takeaway was Murray gave the press a bit of the ol' finger for assuming the Sabres were a hellhole franchise no one wanted to play for. And you can hear whoever it was, incredulous that the Sabres did what they did, and you can hear Murray essentially say "that was your opinion, not my reality."

Born in San Francisco and raised in Amherst, actually. A Nichols School alum.

Darcy was drunk on Pegula cash, signing free agents like a drunk sailor on liberty call.

It's a gag at this point. He likes it.

NHL is in great shape. He's the Commish. Boo away.

It's the confidence that comes from having the NHL In the best shape it's ever been. Boo away.

O snap! You put me in my place. BTW, yes, Darcy wins the trades, and yes, TBD is a better board.

Sorry, I'll fix it, but it's not that misleading. Since this topic was raised, I want to say something about threads on SS. I appreciate the desire to maintain efficiency but it can go too far. Funneling new topics into existing threads makes SS look like a dead board. I'm sure the dozen or so of you who dominate this board would disagree but anyone who is a casual reader would think that nothing is happening here because the topics never change. I don't have the time or the desire read every thread before posting, nor should I have to. Take sister site TBD an example. There is a constant influx of new topics. Some may be similar to existing threads, and if they are too similar, a mod closes and/or merges it. Every time I come here it looks like nothing has changed in months. And I'm sure others feel the same way. So lighten up.
