Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I can die now. Thank you for listening and taking your lumps along the way. Godspeed... and.... GO SABRES!!!!!!!!!! Quote
SDS Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I'm pretty sure they both said to go F yourself... Quote
Jsixspd Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 HOORAH!!!! Pat LaFontaine BLEEDS blue and gold - this is a great day for the Sabres! Quote
Eleven Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I'm pretty sure they both said to go F yourself... ] Awesome Quote
Derrico Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Thank you Terry. It took a bit but you finally listened to your fans. You are still a great owner and I can't wait for this organization to move forward with Patty at the helm. Quote
MattPie Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Mark my words, we're going to come to miss Darcy. BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHA. Quote
Eleven Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Mark my words, we're going to come to miss Darcy. BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHHAHAHA. The guy could pull off some trades, that's for sure. But you just can't let an NHL team start a season with one NHL center. Twice. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Posted November 13, 2013 I'm pretty sure they both said to go F yourself... Too late! Quote
Iron Crotch Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 The guy could pull off some trades, that's for sure. But you just can't let an NHL team start a season with one NHL center. Twice. No doubt. Many of those "great" trades involved trading away all of the centers off of the roster! Quote
beerme1 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Well this should stop the bleeding. Sooner rather than later. Quote
Stoner Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I'm pretty sure they both said to go F yourself... I'd say the same thing right now, but I don't want to get banned now. It's getting fun again. Right on Drane. They did finally listen, almost three years too late, but whatever. I feel like I want to announce a truce with Terry, but there's too much in his comments today that concerns me. In the meantime, I bought the last "cheap" ticket on StubHub for Friday's game, my first of the season. So there's that. Quote
SDS Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I'd say the same thing right now, but I don't want to get banned now. It's getting fun again. The difference would be Terry and Ted would be justified in their response. You wouldn't. Quote
Rox11 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 After watching the whole presser, the 2 words I heard most were 'PATIENCE' and 'COMPETE'. We all know it will take awhile, but at least put a product on the ice that gives AT LEAST 50 minutes of solid hockey. Let's hope Nolan can light the fire ... Quote
johnyvegas Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 I thought it was a joke when i read the news. I'm officially excited again. Quote
Sabres Fan in NS Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 What about thank you Darcy and Ron? Like when Ruff was fired I feel no joy in this. Darcy did the best he could for a long time. His best just was not good enough. For the first time in a long time he will not be going to his office this morning and last night he faced his family as an unemployed man. I've been there. It's tough. As for Ron. Thrown to the wolves and placed in a hopeless situation. He deserved better. I'll say it ... Thank you Darcy and Ron. Quote
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted November 13, 2013 Author Report Posted November 13, 2013 The difference would be Terry and Ted would be justified in their response. You wouldn't. There is no room for negativity any longer. I am here for my team that has finally been freed from 2 decades of oppression. GO SABRES!!! What about thank you Darcy and Ron?

Thrown to the wolves and placed in a hopeless situation. He deserved better. I'll say it ... Thank you Darcy and Ron. I really like Rolston. I wish him the best. Good luck Darcy. My guess is he takes a job in the league offices. There is no celebration in anyone's misery. There is celebration however for the trust and freedom that has been installed. Quote
Jsixspd Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 There is no room for negativity any longer. I am here for my team that has finally been freed from 2 decades of oppression. GO SABRES!!! That's pretty much how I feel too! I'm really excited to be a fan again - and I wasn't even gonna watch the Maple Leafs games, but that's no longer the case! Quote
Stoner Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 The difference would be Terry and Ted would be justified in their response. You wouldn't. The owner of this board dropping in once a year to make a comment like that about an interesting, respected poster? Oh heck yeah. Anyway, this is how it's supposed to feel to be a fan. I wish I could tell Darcy thanks for everything, but like Lindy, your time had more than run out. This is our team, not yours. We're the cockroaches, not you. Quote
... Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Anyway, this is how it's supposed to feel to be a fan. Agreed. This is the beginning of the real re-building of this team and it feels exciting...for now. Quote
Stoner Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Agreed. This is the beginning of the real re-building of this team and it feels exciting...for now. It sucks the venom out. The toxicity level almost disappears. I really don't understand how anybody can boo this team anymore. The arena just got Febrezed. Quote
... Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 It sucks the venom out. The toxicity level almost disappears. I really don't understand how anybody can boo this team anymore. The arena just got Febrezed. The FN Centre will explode when Nolan walks behind that bench for the first time, again, Friday. It'll be like an exorcism. If they introduce Lafontaine at the same time...watch out fabled "Buffalo curse"...you'll be blasted back into the void for a while. Quote
Nitro60 Posted November 13, 2013 Report Posted November 13, 2013 Darcy needed to be fired to benefit him. He did not look like a man who enjoyed his job the last news conference he had. He will not be out of work for long. Rolston was a good soldier and took the job. It was a good for his resume and I think he will go to the minors to coach or Junior/College. He needs to teach/coach at that level because it is where he was the most successful. Quote
