That has to be because of the Sabres organization or MSG because other teams show pre and post game shows but not the Sabres 

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

[ska-T Palmtown]

Why on earth does NHL network have ANY interest in this game, tho?

[PromoTheRobot]

Awesome speech from Rob.

Rob's dad looks like Ralph Krueger.

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.

Yeah, there's a time and place. That ain't it.

 

I could be remembering wrong, but I feel like there was some booing of TP during RJs ceremony.

When would be the time??  This is the only time

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?

It says that's it the only opportunity the fans will have to voice their displeasure with Terry

I do not see the game on espn

[Dreams Burn Down]

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.

[DarthEbriate]

Any fights planned tonight to get the crowd going?

Maybe Krebs? Clifton? TNT vs. ROR?

Have you ever watched wrestling? 

the boos will have quickly turned to cheers by the time Ray has finished with Terry at centre ice

Tear inducing. Funny. A little language. The ceremony will be posted by the Sabres shortly.

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

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

 

The GDT is not correct.

The solution was not in the room?
