Vesey signs with Rangers; huge thread now moot

[nfreeman]

WGR is saying today will be the 2nd meeting we've had with Vesey, the first since July 1, for what it's worth

 

I hope this time they remember to remove the green M&Ms from the dish.  Jimmy can't stand the green ones.

And a more plush chair this time as well. For his delicate posterior.

Let's hope they subliminally assault him with a bowl filled with only blue and gold ones.

I sometimes wonder: Was Ted Black a source of leaks (specifically the leak that Sabres brass (just Ted Black?) were FURIOUS at Babcock)? And did loose lips give rise to his separation this time last year? (Or maybe he was just done in by Brandon.)

 

 

FTFY

Interesting idea.  That could be the case.  For the security footage leak the Sabres seemed to be blaming a security guard for it.  But the aftermath leak of the Sabres being furious and Black's departure soon thereafter does give some thought. 

 

The NHL.com article on the Sabrespace main page confirms Murray will be meeting with Vessey in Boston today.  From what's been out there, I believe the first conversation may have been just over the phone.  I believe this is the first face to face.  Unless someone has something I've missed?

The buzz is that Vesey is in Buffalo today. Some randoms on Twitter have said that they've seen him in and around Harborcenter. I guess the meeting must be today.

Not legit till someone spots him at Tempo.

Eating a 72 oz steak named for him.

It's on boys and girls.  It's on.  Let's hope TM, DD and TP have brought their A game.

If the head coach is leaving Dev Camp for this...

Can we also see what type of beverages they are consuming on the flight back?  That might tell us what we need to know..

Give me a sec....

 

They ran out of Grey Goose.  Now they will have to dip into the single malt scotch supply.

I know the guy who runs Buffalo Executive Airshare.  Those planes are NICE.  I've been in them.  (Only on the ground.)

[pi2000]

Should we read anything into the fact that they are off course?

That wobble was just from the dozen strippers putting their clothes back on for landing.

Oh man I can just imagine.  Guys like Pegula with the bucks they have.  No expense spared I would hazard to guess.

[sabills]

They're turning around, obviously coming back to sign the contract IMHO:

I think they should meet and sign him in TD Garden for full effect.

WGR is saying today will be the 2nd meeting we've had with Vesey, the first since July 1, for what it's worth

 

And the purpose of the 2nd meeting is for Vesey to sign an ELC. 

Ok, not happening. But how sweet it'd be!!!

Or they forgot to bring it with them :p

[Stoner]

This is kinda fun. So why two flights, one last night and one today? Maybe Kimmer's on the second one?

 

Harrington is pushing the Blackhawks angle today. Anyone else getting tired of the Sabres being early in and early out in these situations? Babcock, Stamkos, Hawks (?)? It's like we're playing the role of the warmup masseur.

[ct fab]

Maybe the Pegula's last night and GMT and Coach B today (who both had to stay for development camp and the KO presser?

[Sabres Fan in NS]

Or they forgot to bring it with them :P

 

I'm sure those fancy Pegula planes come with those fancy fax machines and paper and electricity.

Yes. I miss the days when the Sabres didn't do anything.
