YoloinOhio Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Great find! Is there anyone more personable than Rex Ryan? Also he kind of reminds me of that one friend's goofy dad that everyone knew as a kid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I'm sure you all remember when the two FOs couldn't stand each other. Now you have this, a few years later. Amazing. I live here in WNY, and maybe having a memory lapse, but I don't remember this at all. Please explain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Rex Ryan was a huge getAgreed. Bylsma, not so much. He -like Eichel- was our 2nd choice. We brazenly Tank an entire 81 game season just to be distant bridesmaids.. At least we have Rex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please explain?they were always trying to upstage each other - they were in competition for attention, it seemed. There was some rumor of discord between the two organizations.

C.Biscuit97 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 It's funny how people act like a hockey coach really matters. Give him the garbage the Sabres had last year, they will suck. Give him Malkin and Crisby, he will be good. But Rex is a great ambassador. He better win or people will turn him quick though. That's how fickle fans are.

At least we have Rex. the Tank was actually for the lock of getting Eichel. McDavid was a lottery ticket that came with the tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We brazenly Tank an entire 81 game season just to be distant bridesmaids.. At least we have Rex. Not the right way to look at it. The tank was to guarantee one of McDavid or Eichel. Eichel is going to be great! Edited May 28, 2015 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eichel is going to be great I still hated every second of the tank. Rooting for your team to lose is the exact opposite of what sports should be. Thank god it's over. Hopefully the ghost of Ted Nolan doesn't haunt the Sabres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plenzmd1 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Thanks to the Pegula's we get to have nice things now. I sit back today and ponder the coaching landscape in Buffalo over the last six months. We have gone from Marrone and Nolan to Ryan and Bylsma. Think about that for a minute. Now, after the realization that we have two of the most sought after coaches in their respective sport, say a tiny prayer of thanks that the Pegulas figured out how to frak!

At least we have Rex. No, we brazenly tanked an 82 game season. Eichel doesn't make us a distant bridesmaid. He's going to make us a long term contender in due course. Hang in there.

PromoTheRobot Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 (edited) I forget not everyone here is a hockey fan. To understand what we got in Eichel, think of a draft where the top 2 picks were Gretzky and Crosby. Edited May 29, 2015 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 But Rex is a great ambassador. He better win or people will turn him quick though. Starting with this place. If we start 0-2, there will be some ready to burn the Ralph and TBD's servers to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
