Randall Flagg Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 BTW, for anyone who can't evaluate Bylsma until the defense is upgraded, a certain team north of the border who plays in the playoffs tomorrow had this defense in practice this morning: Gardiner - Polak Rielly - HunwickMarincin - CarrickA rough Sabres equivalent:Sekera - Weber Risto but a fair bit worse - Gorges Falk - Fedun or something like that.

spndnchz Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 WGR550 4m4 minutes ago Hradek - there are still some rumors that there could be some changes coming with the #Sabres at head coach @WGR550 4m4 minutes ago Hradek - they have to hope that the young players can keep stepping up for them and that they can stay healthy #Sabres' @WGR550 3m3 minutes ago Hradek - the rumors on Bylsma are nothing really new, same as a couple of months ago, but both him and GMTM are competitive guys #Sabres @WGR550 2m2 minutes ago Hradek - Bylsma is under contract for a few more years, if they want to make any changes it will come at a cost #Sabres So I just type out my random thoughts like this.

Samson's Flow Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 So I just type out my random thoughts like this. Tap tap tap... Right those were four twitter posts that provided no new substance or news. Just stating the obvious. I can't wait for Twitter to die a horrible painful death.

TrueBlueGED Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Can't wait to throw away talent in trades designed to specifically support a ###### system and head coach. Hurray! On the bright side, maybe Murray legitimately doesn't know that the players he has acquired/drafted are for what Bylsma wants to do. Thus, he will not trade them for the purpose of getting players that better fit Bylsma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doohicksie Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 I can't wait for Twitter to die a horrible painful death. I've never gotten into Twitter. I've started two accounts and tried to learn how to use it. Instead I just get disappointed. For every tweet that's interesting and relevant, I see hundreds that are useless. The signal to noise ration just isn't there for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabres Fan in NS Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Guys it's okay to admit that you don't know how to use twitter. My name is NS and I have no clue how to use twitter. I set up an account for one reason ... The Eichel Tower. My feed is full of environmental, social justice, news, business and some Sabre junk. I read, but seldom tweet and I am much more often logged out than logged in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brawndo Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 From Friedman's 30 Thoughts The last name I should mention with the Panthers is Boston University’s David Quinn. There’s a lot of curiosity around how involved Buffalo is here, too. Also 4. In Los Angeles, GM Rob Blake said his next bench boss would have NHL head coaching experience. That rules out my dark horse: Washington assistant Todd Reirden, who went deep into the process with Calgary last summer. The two have the Bowling Green connection, with Blake finishing the year before Reirden arrived. For a few years now, we’ve assumed John Stevens would succeed Darryl Sutter, but it appears there are no guarantees, although Stevens will get a chance to interview for the job. All the comments about offence remind me of Larry Bird’s decision to fire Frank Vogel at Indiana last season, saying, “We’ve got to score more points” as Vogel said he’d do anything to keep the job. The word in league coaching circles is that Los Angeles will be searching for bright, offensive minds. And even if that type of person is not chosen as head coach, there will be another opportunity in an “offensive co-ordinator” style position. Wonder if their AHL coach, Mike Stothers, gets a spot on the bench as some of his guys get an NHL shot. If so, I will miss his “text messages from the bus” with reporter Lindsay Czarnecki. 5. So, who does that leave? Gerard Gallant, you’d think. At some point, you have to believe Paul MacLean gets another shot, and he’s down the road in Anaheim. I’m not sure what’s going on in Buffalo, but Dan Bylsma played with Blake at Bowling Green. Lindy Ruff had up-tempo teams in Buffalo and Dallas.

Drunkard Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 Guys it's okay to admit that you don't know how to use twitter. I don't know how to use it because I've never tried but I understand the basic concept, I just really have no need for it. I have no desire to stalk celebrities or hang on some famous person's every word or any of that crap and if I'm looking for information about something specific I can easily find it elsewhere. I can type whatever into a google search and even if the answer I'm looking for is on twitter, it will show up there in some article and I can still read the tweet without having an account. I'm glad people on this board use it and then race to be the first to share the info here, but you're all still 14 year old girls, ha ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkard Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) Rewind 20 years, replace 'twitter' with 'google' and 'google' with 'the library', and this is the same concept Except I have google on my phone and my computer just like everyone who uses twitter has it on their phone and computers. With a library you're having to go to a different location and you're looking up (sometimes) old information that was previously printed by someone. Newer doesn't always mean better. Google is just as current as twitter plus it encompasses everything on twitter plus everything that isn't on twitter. It has it all.

Message boards are the closest thing to social media I use, but at least I'm not stamping my real name on all my crazy ramblings for employers to possibly discover should I ever find myself looking for a new job. That would suck. With my luck I'd be interviewing for a great job and the guy I'm interviewing with would be some sort of Evangelical Conservative. And I know that I could always sign up to be @Drunkard666 or however it works, but like I said before google works for me so I don't need it. No it doesn't. There are tons of things that are contained in libraries and in electronic library databases that are not located in a google search. Most of a major University's library budget is spent on electronic resources. Not everything, but I'm not doing research for a Ph.D on particle physics or trying to win a Nobel prize. It has everything I need it for though, whether it's where player X signed and the contract he signed, sports standings and scores, midget porn, or who the chick with the big knockers was on last night's episode of whatever.

TrueBlueGED Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 :cry: ###### I'm seriously considering not buying tickets next year. I'm spending way too much money on this team. Watching T.O. do what they're doing. Having an obvious problem here not being addressed. Maybe I'll have the hope back come September but this is worse than tank years...... My hope tank has some fuel in it with this presser. It's not full, but I can get around town now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll always defend Libraries. Everyone has thus been warned. So, how do we all feel about this now? Looks like we have another full week of this roller coaster I don't care and plan not to care. The coach decision is not something I control so it, I am not going to freak out over him staying or going. Maybe if the Sabres elicited any kind of emotional response from me anymore but meh, let it play out and whatever happens happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJFIVEOH Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 I'm not a 14 year old girl and I use Twitter. I don't Tweet, but it can often come in very handy when looking for news, sports updates, and just cool stuff. If you know how to use it, it's probably the fastest and easiest way to find any sort of information you need from many broad perspectives.
