sabills Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 When we say "make the team" does that mean permanently? Because I think Ghule is gonna get a 9 game tryout, especially with all these injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 2, 2015 Report Share Posted October 2, 2015 I think with the new information Evan Rodrigues may make a run outta camp and really help with a few goals and 15 assists in the first month or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trettioåtta Posted October 4, 2015 Report Share Posted October 4, 2015 Lehner is a top 5 goalie in terms of save % by the end of October. That's my bold update Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted October 14, 2015 Report Share Posted October 14, 2015 I'm feeling pretty confident at this point. :) So many were guessing and almost demanding that McCabe be down on the farm for another year. He went down after game one but came back up for game three and looked very good. We'll see if he sticks for the entire month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

French Collection Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 I think I'm the only one who picked Ullmark. Hopefully gets a start and makes the most of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 I'm still feeling very confident in my pick here. I can't imagine much will change in the next few days. And I'm honestly most excited about the fact that McCabe has looked solid because he's one of my favorite young guys in the organization.

Hoss Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Okay so I'm may have had a few drinks but I won this thing, right? I would be more ecstatic than a kid during his first Christmas if that was the case. I'm assuming my pick is the only one that is near the "credentials." Â Also - I mistook a guy at the bar for like three Sabrespacers from the "what the heck do you look like thread?" and he STILL bought me a beer. Thanks for looking like nice people, Sabrespacers. Goodnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudacek Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015  Nolan gets fired — Check So does Cassidy in Rochester — Check Sabres win lottery, take McDavid — so I was feeling optimistic that day Girgorenko traded— Check Murray moves up in the draft to take a defenceman— I meant out. For a goalie. One already under contract Team takes on a big contract from a cap-strapped team — O'Reily counts, right? One promising young goalie acquired via trade — Check Neuvirth re-signed to a modest contract — Something we should have done One mid-roster veteran free agent skater signed — Hi, Cody Franson Hudson Fasching signed, plays with the Amerks — I meant next year A handful of youngish AHLers signed (D'Amigo/Varone types) in bid to rebuild the farm — Hi Akeson, Donovan, Sanguinetti, and Cal O'Reilly Babcock signs the biggest contract ever by an NHL coach — Check (was i supposed to specify what team?) Kaleta is told to look for another NHL job, and that if he doesn't get one he has a job with the organization. — Check Benoit, Meszaros, Strachan, Lindback, Hackett, Dalpe, Sundher, Liewen, Gauthier-Leduc and Samuels-Thomas not offered contracts in low-roster purge — Check Ellis re-signed with the intent of playing him in Rochester — Check Reinhart makes the team — Check   Did better on this than I thought. Am I still in contention? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Did better on this than I thought. Am I still in contention? The contest changed midway because the original winner couldn't take the tickets. It changed to "who will be a surprise to make the team out of camp and be with the team through the first month?"

Only thing left to see is if McCabe continues strong throughout the year you win playoff tickets and a jersey as well. Â Congrats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now wouldn't that be something? Since you guys demanded a speech: I'd like to thank the academy, Jake McCabe and most of all tom Webster for holding this awesome contest. Oh, and my mom. And Obama.  Go Sabres. This is awesome. Edited October 31, 2015 by Hoss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted October 31, 2015 Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 However is psysk comes thru and takes the reigns, then I will graciously accept playoff tickets (30 years a Sabres/bills fan, and never been to a playoff game) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom webster Posted March 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2016 With Jake McCabe getting signaled out by Tim Murray for his developement this year, I guess I technically owe Hoss playoff tickets and an autographed jersey. Unfortunately he will have to wait at least a year for those tickets.  As for the 6.0 version of the contest. I am open to suggestions on how to make it better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
