His sign off really got me.

Didn't think I was gona get that emotional.

His body is failing and you could really see it when he was taking off his head set. That hit me.

I think that may have more about the emotion of the moment.

Screw ABC for not showing it. I stayed up to watch that. /sigh

I'm sick of them rambling on about crap... or having to talk to magicians...or dancers rather than show the kids being drafted.

Jack Eichel in 5 important games when his team needed his help making the playoffs:

0g, 1a, -5

Jack Eichel in a meaningless game to end the season:

2g, 1a, +2

Serious question, why do you care? They wear them the same amount, and you watch games on TV anyway.

I get it for people who have season tickets and go to every home game so there's some variety.

Didn’t expect to tear up again but I did. I really didn’t want this season to end. It’s a shame RJ didn’t get to call a playoff series since 2011.

The way they played the last two months gives us hope for the future. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some major holes on this roster.

They need a top 6 stud, they need a top 4 d-man. Joker ain’t it. We all know they need a goaltender.

They have the coach, they have some real nhl players now it’s up to KA to build this roster with the proper vets to help the kids but also help the Sabres win some games next season.

Also Bryson is trying so hard to be Dahlin but he’s just not any good. He is a 6/7 guy at best. There’s a lot of time between now and the draft. What are we going to argue about next?

Thanks for the memories RJ. Your voice is the voice of the Buffalo Sabres. Hero’s get remember but legends never die. It won’t be the same without you.

I'd rather have a John Hayden at least banging in the corners than a boring snoring Girgensons who has given NOTHING for the ELEVEN years he's been mocking the blue and gold. Second young man please NEVER combine hockey and football.

Serious question: Why do you care what I care?

I don't know. I grew up watching the home team wear white uniforms. I never got used to the dark uniforms at home.

In a perfect world, you still have 4 team divisions and you wear your colors against your rivals but let the other divisions wear their colors on the road in your building.

I like looking at sports uniforms, I don't know. I'm interested in their aesthetics and who wears what and when. Why do I have to explain this? I like it when the Bills and other NFL teams wear their white uniforms at home, too. I like that the NBA doesn't really designate a home/away uniform. I like when baseball players all wear high cuffs.

What's it like to not enjoy literally anything, bandit?

Is that enough to get back into the 4th twice. Use the 5th and a 6th and then 3 6ths and a 7th.
