PromoTheRobot Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) I'll listen, but I don't expect the Sabres or Babcock would ever tell tales out of school. Bottom line, Murray had Babcock actually negotiating a contract; money wasn't an object; how they would work together was widely reported as what they were hung up on; Babcock goes to Toronto. Can you provide a link to the "widely reported" you are referring to? Not saying I don't trust your fevered imagination, I just don't trust your fevered imagination.

Brawndo Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I really feel bad for all the Sabres Fans who were trolling Toronto Fans on Twitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFunPolice Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Pegula embarrassed Toronto and MSLE over the Bills. They weren't letting him win here. Well, in that case I'm happy with the trade off. We keep the Bills, Toronto gets Babcock for a few years until it blows up and ends ugly and they pay him some ungodly amount to fire him.

ddaryl Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yes but you also wrote that my suggestion that Babcock could go to Toronto was "funny". What a bitch an hour or so can make, huh?! Just sayin' Buffalo pulled the offer.. Much different. Still laughing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoss Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I really feel bad for all the Sabres Fans who were trolling Toronto Fans on Twitter I don't.

PotentPowerPlay22 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Time to move on I guess. I'm not surprised he didn't choose Buffalo, but I am surprised he will choose Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matter2003 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Funny that it seems a majority of the Toronto fans DON'T want Babcock and see them as having way too many fundemantal problems for him to be able to fix...seem to think its a ploy to get Leaf fans off the focal point that their team isn't very good and likely won't be very good for a while based on lack of prospects and horrible long term contracts...

pastajoe Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 I think it was about Toronto vs Buffalo -- both in terms of big-city glamor and in terms of playing on the biggest NHL stage. So he'd rather be on a big farm with a bunch of swaybacks then a small farm with young thoroughbreads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 If true, I am right there with you. Know what? I am right there regardless. Fukc you, B-C0ck! I'll lay odds Pegula pulled his offer as soon as he got wind of Toronto's (seemingly) renewed interest. And I'd be glad to find out that's true. From a personnel standpoint, he's going to the Sabres' situation of two years ago. Enjoy, Babs. GO BILLS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
