If the owner is involved in the induction I hope the fans don't boo. Not because the owner doesn't deserve to be booed but because it would be unfair to Razor on his special day.

I don't agree.   If he speaks , it will be an opportunity for Sabres fans to voice their displeasure and would have nothing to do with Ray

This is not the time or place. It's Rob's night.

Don't agree.  People boo Bettmen and Goodell at the drafts and any other time they speak.  Takes nothing away from the draft / ceremony.   
my spellcheck changes the names to Batman and Giselle.    Would have been huge confusion if I didn't notice 🙂

So you think Bettman at a draft is the same as a tribute to Rob Ray? Wow.

I think everyone is smart enough to know that the  boos would be directly solely at Pegula. 
If Terry was brave enough to speak, would you stand and cheer him?

And yes , to the kids getting drafted.  The night is just as important and memorable to them as tonight would be for Ray

Smart enough? Sure. But what does it say that you can't put the vitriol away for 30 minutes?

That was a fantastic tribute to Rob; a very touching ceremony.  I got choked-up when he thanked his mom and dad.  Ryan Miller presenting the sabre to Rob was a nice touch (didn't the owner(s) do this in the past?).

It's always a treat to see the Sabres of decades past.  It reminds me that this franchise was relevant at one time.  If anything could rekindle the dying embers of my love for this team, this was it.

Then, I look at the current standings and I'm back to where I was before. Just win tonight for Rob.

ESPN+ will not air the Ray HoF induction. But the Sabres will post the video on their website/YouTube after.

It's because of MSG. They don't allow ESPN+ to carry the pre and post game shows.

bad news for me.  No game.  ESPN+ is not covering it.  It’s on NHL channel, NHLHD. 

 

The GDT is not correct.
