Taro T Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Hat tip to GilmoreTuttle. Near the end of DD's presser, there's the possible sound of something or someone being slammed into a locker (sure sounded like it), followed by someone cursing, "Get the ###### off!" Anyone know the proximity of the media room to the lockerroom? There's so much smoke with this team, starting with ROR's incident; stuff with Kane, including sitting one game for missing a practice a day after the NBA All Star Game; Eichel getting benched for being late to a meeting, getting punished for a turnover and on another occasion putting on a postgame brouhaha for the apparent benefit of the media; Murray laying down the law last Sunday; Reinhart immediately violating the policy and sitting; and whatever happened today. The Bills went on to Super Bowl glory (and ignominy) after they fought it out in the late 80s. If this is what is happening with the Sabres, could it also be a good thing? They don't have "lockers." Something was going on. THIS season can't end soon enough. What a ####ing nightmare this season has been. Quote
Brawndo Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 It sounded like something getting knocked over, in a scuffle or fight?, then someone shouted get the off. Maybe bringing Nylander into this show isn't the best idea? Quote
WildCard Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I'm surprised none of this is on twitter yet. How has none of the Buffalo media run with this? Quote
Brawndo Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Also PR quickly moved to end the press conference after that Quote
Taro T Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I'm surprised none of this is on twitter yet. How has none of the Buffalo media run with this? Seriously?!?!? Quote
Brawndo Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I'm surprised none of this is on twitter yet. How has none of the Buffalo media run with this? This seems right up Harrington, Gleason or Sullivan's Alley Quote
Taro T Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 This seems right up Harrington, Gleason or Sullivan's Alley Except for the fact it MIGHT ACTUALLY be news. None of those putzes would know a story if it bit 'em on the bippy. Quote
Randall Flagg Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Interesting. If one person is not pleased with the way the team went through the motions today (and every single player did, save maybe some Carrier or Moulson types) it has to be Lehner, right? Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 They don't have "lockers." Something was going on. THIS season can't end soon enough. What a ####ing nightmare this season has been. Seriously. Aside from Jack becoming a point per game player, and McCabe looking like a legit top-4 Dman...is there any positive from this season? Interesting. If one person is not pleased with the way the team went through the motions today (and every single player did, save maybe some Carrier or Moulson types) it has to be Lehner, right? Maybe. But with some of the goals he let in, is he really in a spot to have any kind of altercation? Quote

Although Lehner played like today as well. Wondering if it's Reinhart on the receiving end? Quote
North Buffalo Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Also, that argument if you listen closely was going on quite a bit before you could hear anything intelligent. It slowly got louder. Who knows, but can't see it being Sam, though it was not a low voice and Sam that I am aware of with a higher pitched Canadian voice?? Quote
That Aud Smell Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 It didn't sound like a scuffle to me -- it sounded like someone was ranting about what had gone down, what was going down. There's something preceding the "F*** OFF!" -- something that seems to build to that point. I went to the game (but not the fan appreciation party in the plaza -- sorry, PA -- no live stream), and Eichel seemed fairly out to lunch. Quote
Stoner Posted April 3, 2017 Author Report Posted April 3, 2017 They don't have "lockers." Something was going on. THIS season can't end soon enough. What a ####ing nightmare this season has been. I am aware there are no metal "high school lockers" in the lockerroom. Like you, I've seen it. But that's what it sounded like. We'd have to know the layout of the area. Are there no lockers in an equipment room? It doesn't matter. And we're never going to know what it was or who it was. We don't deserve to know as fans. Just like we'll never know for sure what happened with Briere, Drury or FaLaLaLaLaLaLaLafontaine. Quote
bunomatic Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 The ' get the #### off of me ' came from the logo in the middle of the room. I'm sure of it because apparently TPegs has one of those speakers thats disguised as a rock installed right beside the tiki bar to Jacks left. That was for sure the logos voice and it sounded pissed. Quote
Georgia Blizzard Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I guess when you sleep walk through an entire game, you have extra energy you need to get out of your system. My frustration with this team is slowly turning to apathy. Quote

Post of the year! I guess when you sleep walk through an entire game, you have extra energy you need to get out of your system. My frustration with this team is slowly turning to apathy. I was just telling someone yesterday that I can't believe I've spent most of my life surrending a big chunk of my happiness to a bunch of young, rich, spoiled, prick jocks who don't care half as much as I (we) do. Ah, the wisdom of age. You youngens enjoy it while you can. Quote

I heard it on the GR broadcast. This may well be what happened. Some reporter stepped on the logo and was told to get off of it. Quote
darksabre Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 I heard it on the GR broadcast. This may well be what happened. Some reporter stepped on the logo and was told to get off of it. This would actually make sense since none of the media reported on it. Perhaps it was one of the media guys getting told off. Quote
Doohicksie Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Not buying it. If a reporter had done it, I have no doubt that a reporter from another news organization would have mentioned it. Quote

That Aud Smell Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 Why? That sort of thing seems like it would be low-hanging fruit for someone like Harrington. Quote
WildCard Posted April 3, 2017 Report Posted April 3, 2017 That's odd though cause we heard bickering before the loud outburst. Plus, which player is screaming at a reported like that? Quote
