Scotty Bowman is at the game.  Former coach and GM of Buffalo.  Won cups in Montreal, Pittsburgh and Detroit.  

Got us to a Conference final loss his first season and never got close again.   Basically dismantled the team and sold it for draft picks.  Notable were Mike Ramsey and two HOF players in Housley and Andreychuck. Also drafted Tom Barrasso who he mysteriously dealt to Pittsburgh just prior to leaving Buffalo and then accepting a GM job there.    Hmmmm 

He lives here as well

I need to learn to read lips. Scotty was chirping up a storm.

Just pretend the last two months didn’t happen and we are battling the Red Wings for the last wild card spot.

I've done this and really gotten into it. We do what we do to survive.

The game is much more entertaining if you leave the baggage behind.

Good post, but Scotty didn't trade Barrasso. It's funny to think that after those big draft years of 1982 and 1983, Scotty lasted only until the fall of '86.

I am surprised by how involved Nylander has been. He looks like he belongs.

I'm trying to temper my expectations due to how many others on the team are playing, and due to quality of competition. But he looks pretty good, I agree.
