LabattBlue Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 So if he is hired will his acronym here be DDB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 His nickname has been Disco Dan for a long time, actually. Fans in Pitt also referred to him as such. What's the "I told you so" here? GoDD's fantastic breakdowns of Bylsma definitely got many on the bandwagon, but I don't think anybody was suggesting that hiring Bylsma was outside of the realm of possibility. It's an I told you so if he leads the Sabres to the cup, but I don't think any fan of the team will be wasting time on those while celebrating. The "I told you so" would arise if he leads the Sabres to greatness. And while I'm sure he would keep it classy, GoDD would definitely be entitled to a little vindication.

As an aside, I originally typed "ground" spelled as "grownd" and was initially confused at the red underline. Not my best moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoss Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Sounds like an official announcement might come tomorrow... little fuzzy on the details in twitter land The only thing legitimately out there is from Stepner and then others following up. I saw a guy with 13 followers say that his sources say the announcement will be made tomorrow. There's no private investigating needed with twitter. Legit accounts reporting legit news is all we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just last month everyone and their mother was quoting Tim Murray for something he didn't even say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just last month everyone and their mother was quoting Tim Murray for something he didn't even say. Sure. But that's a different situation. Twitter isn't that difficult. Nobody that you should be paying any mind to has said that there's an announcement coming tomorrow or even that there may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Read what Jay McKee had to say about him. It seems to be the opposite of what you're saying. Yeah i know, still think im right and not jumping on the babcockhardonbandwagon 2.0 i say we hire Guy boucher as hc and ted nelson as an assistant. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to bring it up because Godd seemed pleased to have coined the phrase disco Dan, but I've also read some articles referring him as that nickname. Just felt bad being the first to bring it up. Still a very good call man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just felt bad being the first to bring it up. Still a very good call man. He's been called Disco Dan for 20+ years. If I'm going to coin a nickname for someone, it's probably going to be a little more less subtle...like..Weasel !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
