ricojes Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Why is Marrone photo bombing Bylsma? Just making sure Bylsma puts in a full pay opt out clause in his contract...
YoloinOhio Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Why is Marrone photo bombing Bylsma?Ted Black looks so much like Marrone in certain photos, I often have to do a double take
LB3 Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Ted Black looks so much like Marrone in certain photos, I often have to do a double take Wow. I just googled Ted Black and you're not kidding. Some photos he looks just like Marrone. I never noticed that before.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 We should not have to compensate the Penguins, they fired him his contract should be null and void.
26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 @AdamBenigni Note: Told that compensation issue on the Bylsma #Sabres #Pens issue is between clubs at this point... Not determined at NHL level. @BuffNewsVogl Bill Daly on hiring comps: "The rule and its interpretation are clear. But a Club has a right to waive its right to receive compensation."
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 @AdamBenigni Note: Told that compensation issue on the Bylsma #Sabres #Pens issue is between clubs at this point... Not determined at NHL level. @BuffNewsVogl Bill Daly on hiring comps: "The rule and its interpretation are clear. But a Club has a right to waive its right to receive compensation." Other than a respect thing, is there any reason the Pens would choose to waive that?
YoloinOhio Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 I see that clause being outlawed soon. It's ridiculous. sooo stupid.
Captain Caveman Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 Other than a respect thing, is there any reason the Pens would choose to waive that? Cause as soon as he's hired they can stop paying him.
26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 @DarrenDreger Bylsma officially hired by Sabres. Give up a 3rd round pick next year as compensation.

ChevyVanMiller Posted May 28, 2015 Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) Awesome hire!!! According to ESPN, a team has to give up a 3rd rounder when hiring a coach still under contract during the off-season. An in-season hire garners a 2nd rd pick. http://espn.go.com/nhl/story/_/id/12970035/buffalo-sabres-hire-dan-bylsma-coach-pittsburgh-penguins-get-pick Edited May 28, 2015 by ChevyVanMiller

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2015 Author Posted May 28, 2015 (edited) BUTTON: BYLSMA AN ‘EXCELLENT CHOICE’ TO COACH SABRES NHL Network analyst Craig Button breaks down why the Sabres chose Dan Bylsma. DUFF: BYLSMA BRINGS WINNING PEDGIREE TO BUFFALO He was drafted four picks ahead of Pavel Bure in the 1989 NHL Draft, but scored fewer goals per game over the course of his 429-game NHL career than Sabres “legend” Rob Ray. (Is this the time to be asking, “How?” and not “How many?”)He shares a birthday (Sept. 19) with late-night comedian Jimmy Fallon and some of his own comedic instincts helped him earn a nickname – “Disco Dan” – that could gain further traction in Western New York given our penchant for a certain annual event, The World’s Largest Disco, which sells out every November in downtown Buffalo.But most importantly, as he is introduced Thursday as the new head coach of the Buffalo Sabres, Dan Bylsma brings with him an impressive coaching resume.
