Brawndo Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 @Buccigross: With Jack Eichel signing with the Sabres today, BU coach David Quinn just texted me, "I'm going to become a worse coach today."
X. Benedict Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 @Buccigross: With Jack Eichel signing with the Sabres today, BU coach David Quinn just texted me, "I'm going to become a worse coach today." that's great!
Taro T Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 @Buccigross: With Jack Eichel signing with the Sabres today, BU coach David Quinn just texted me, "I'm going to become a worse coach today." But, but, he STILL hasn't told the Sabres if he's leaving BU. How could he possibly be planning on signing a contract today. :w00t: :w00t:
IKnowPhysics Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) I heard Jack was signing with Edmonton. It was a sympathy card for Connor McSorrows. Edited July 1, 2015 by IKnowPhysics
K-9 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Taken today at Buffalo Airport What, Pegula didn't send the company jet? I'd be insulted if I were Jack. Or, to further the conspiracy theories, Jack still hasn't officially made up his mind and rides on corporate jets would be in violation of NCAA rules. Kid is STILL protecting his college eligibility. GO SABRES!!!
3putt Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Maybe he is in town to go to the beach with Ms. Basil, couldn't blame him.

IKnowPhysics Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Doesn't cite the source, but I'll take it. He arrived at BNIA this morning around the time that one would to sign paperwork downtown around noon.
spndnchz Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Doesn't cite the source, but I'll take it. He arrived at BNIA this morning around the time that one would to sign paperwork downtown around noon. Ted Black met him at the airport so....
IKnowPhysics Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 ...so a car ride counts as a gift or endorsement, making him NCAA ineligible!
K-9 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 ...so a car ride counts as a gift or endorsement, making him NCAA ineligible! How do we know he didn't pay Ted Black the prevailing rate of a cab ride from the airport to downtown? This isn't over yet.
GoPre Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 Taken today at Buffalo Airport Anyone else get instant goose bumps after seeing this picture?! Man I love being a Sabres fan!
K-9 Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 @Buccigross: With Jack Eichel signing with the Sabres today, BU coach David Quinn just texted me, "I'm going to become a worse coach today." Bet he's glad he just signed that new five-year deal with BU a few days ago. No way they don't regress next year. GO SABRES!!!
GoPre Posted July 1, 2015 Report Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) ...so a car ride counts as a gift or endorsement, making him NCAA ineligible! Not sure how the rules work today In the NCCA, but when I was getting recruited by a division one school the head coach paid for my travel expenses and meals during the trip. This was back in 99. Let me add he over paid on the travel. Now that couldn't have been allowed, but I wasn't complaining or telling! Edited July 1, 2015 by Thanes16

If he paid for you to go to the Jersey Shore for the summer it was probably not kosher. That is how it worked in '81 and am pretty sure is still the case.

Also provided my host money to have a good night on the town. Don't remember much of that night though.... ha ha Edited July 1, 2015 by Thanes16
