Rumor: Rob Ray Retiring?

[Porous Five Hole]

I was listening to Dropping the Gloves today & John Scott said that Rob told him this was his last season. They spoke during the Catwalk For Charity event in April.  

Ray has grown on me during the television broadcasts. If this is true, I will miss him.  
 

If Rayzor is done, which ex-Sabre do we want in the booth?

[Archie Lee]

Garry Galley would be great.

Ray Whitney

Rob Ray is the only good thing the Sabres have going for them right now 

[...]

I'll do it.

Ehrhoff, isn't he still on the payroll?  Put his ass to work.

Now how will I teach my son the intricacies of the English language?

Literally he is the only thing about this team that I enjoy.

If this is true and Rayzor confided in John Scott, who then decided to leak the information, I will be surprised.  

I like Rayzor for the humor and the on ice stuff, Marty is a far better analyst.  

 

Hard to say who I would hire without hearing them on the air and understanding their approach to the job.

We need to find someone who wants to be here.

How about Doug Gilmour?

Staal emptied some baskets today. He's free.

Whoever the new guy is,  someone needs to tell him not to talk during game action, or if they do,  have something intelligent to say. 

That would be a refreshing change.

That probably means Pat Kaleta since he’s already here

Steve Tasker.

100% this.  Marty could transition from intermission to color so easily.   His command of the game far surpasses Ray.  And he lives there.

Peters 😂 

Rivet 😂

Marty. He's quite good at adding context.

For the F bomb alone Rob Ray deserves immortality.
