LGR4GM Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) Well here we go with the first year AT. Will Jack be a Sabre in October? Who does Toronto draft? What happens with the Chicago cap situation? All this and more coming up in around the NHL 2015-2016 Edited June 16, 2015 by LGR4GM
Randall Flagg Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 (edited) I know it's a fairly arbitrary day in June but just seeing this lifts a huge weight up off my shoulders. It's not the tank season anymore, let's get this thing started and win some hockey games! Edited June 16, 2015 by Randall Flagg
X. Benedict Posted June 16, 2015 Report Posted June 16, 2015 Well here we go with the first year AT. Will Jack be a Sabre in October? Who does Toronto draft? What happens with the Chicago cap situation? All this and more coming up in around the NHL 2015-2016 Thanks LGR4GM. Can we get a brother a pin? 2015-16 will be fun!
X. Benedict Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Goodbye Tank year. Hello massive firefight on bridge year.
biodork Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Lol love the tank-busting gifs (even if they're taxing my crappy iPad and home internet service). Bring on the new era of Sabres hockey!!
bunomatic Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 One word. GROWTH. Thats what this season is all about for me. Watching the kids gel and grow into a tight relentless machine. It'll take some time and a little patience as the pieces are added but man its going to be a fun ride . Its the journey AND the destination as we witness this all unfold and its going to be exhilarating. During the process we as Sabres fans will once again be able to hold our fandom out for all to see and proudly proclaim our allegiance to the Buffalo Sabres. Lets get this party started !
Brawndo Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 Lol love the tank-busting gifs (even if they're taxing my crappy iPad and home internet service). Bring on the new era of Sabres hockey!! Cheers to the end of the T*** Talk!!

Bring on the new era of Sabres hockey!! All part of my evil plan! So excited for this season and the draft and finally seeing the East rise up against the west. Tampa Bay has every single player with 1 exception returning this season. They are going to just get better.
That Aud Smell Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 I wanted to add my own farewell to the tank .gif (sorry, b-dork):
biodork Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 ^ It's all good, Aud (or did we settle on Smell?); at work they pose no problem. ;)
That Aud Smell Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 ^ It's all good, Aud (or did we settle on Smell?); at work they pose no problem. ;) That is very considerate of you. If you please: It's Smell.
biodork Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 That is very considerate of you. If you please: It's Smell. Duly noted. Aud seemed the kinder abbreviation, but I did vaguely recall this came up once before and you preferred Smell. Really looking forward to the draft next Friday!

Really looking forward to the draft next Friday! Aud is much kinder, but, being honest, it's more than I deserve (or anyone deserves, really -- I mean: THE AUD, for crissakes). If "Smell" troubles you (it happens to all of us), then you could go with TAS. But PA started in with "Smell" (maybe even Smelly?) a long time ago, and I cottoned to it. It has a locker room comradery aspect to it that I like (or have grown to like). Same here re: the draft. Edit: BOOM! Haha - I knew I recalled this from WAY back in the day. http://forums.sabrespace.com/topic/5973-love-from-sporting-news/?p=41991 Edited June 17, 2015 by That Aud Smell

Hoss Posted June 17, 2015 Report Posted June 17, 2015 The NHL schedule will be released on June 25th. Bill Daly snuck it into his statements about the Arizona situation. Said that the schedule is essentially finalized and will be released then.

LGR4GM Posted June 18, 2015 Author Report Posted June 18, 2015 Ryan Kennedy @THNRyanKennedy 29s29 seconds ago Coyotes hire Ron Rolston as new coach of AHL Springfield. Good fit for him; always saw him as a development guy. DR trying to ruin another franchise.
WildCard Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 image.jpg Probably a misprint, but it may be because the Hawks sold out Soldier Field for their victory parade.
X. Benedict Posted June 19, 2015 Report Posted June 19, 2015 (edited) Interesting Piece by Sean Avery......mentions his screening of Broudeur, his hard work, and at times his complete indifference to the players culture. http://www.theplayerstribune.com/sean-avery-why-i-retired-life-after-hockey/ "I handled the pressure partly by inventing a character — the tough, ornery Sean Avery that you think you know — and I’d put his game face on before I left for the rink, and I’d take it off when I got home. It was my way of handling all the demands on us to win. And to keep my job. I needed people to hate me. I needed players to come after me in order to stay motivated. Because honestly, playing in the NHL can become stagnant after a few years, especially if you have intellectual interests outside the rink." I guess we never really appreciated him for his beautiful mind. :) Edited June 19, 2015 by X. Benedict
