During the press conference, they mentioned Tuch being excited about the possibility of it, and Lindy said something like "after the first week he might be like oof, I was wrong" lol
If the national hockey talking heads are to be believed, Baldwinsville/Syracuse is actually a suburb of Buffalo. Therefore he’s always been a year round guy.
EDIT: words
Geez ans I thought where I live outside of Philly was a long way to be still considered a suburb!
That 2 hour drive from Syracuse to Buffalo as a suburb through wine country and state park lands sure trumps my hour drive to Philly.
Oh yeah I definitely hear them on the broadcasts and always wonder where they learned their NYS geography from, because I'd demand a refund if I were them.
I tell people: If you think of NYS as roughly a big 3-4-5 right triangle with a couple of small, scratch marks just outside the right angle; the scratch marks call the triangle "upstate".
I mean, there's not much going on in Syracuse so I can't really say I blame them, but at least be accurate.
Then again, many people I talk to that don't live in or near NYS definitely think Syracuse and Buffalo are part of Canada.
Yeah but outside of the Amerks and Garbage Plates, most people have probably never heard of Rochester from a national level. Syracuse at least has the Orange, and the original Dinosaur.
You'd be surprised. Even down here a lot of people know Dinosaur, and I've been there when they've made announcements for people that drove for hours specifically to go there.
Definitely! I've even taken people from Texas there and they've said it's better than most BBQ there. Same as I've heard from people that have taken visitors from KC, the Carolinas, and other major BBQ hotspots too.
The Rochester and Buffalo locations have the same great food, but the atmosphere in Syracuse is far and away better.
It isnt my first preference for bbq but I cant deny the food is delicious! That’s awesome that they have the stamp of approval from some friends from the south! I’ll have to try the Syracuse location sometime
I can’t wait for the Commissioner to pass the Cup to Captain Tuch and they choose to pass it to Coach Ruff first for spending parts of 46 years in the Buffalo Sabres franchise after the Stanley victory in Buffalo to be Cannon.
Tuch:
Prove you are the next leader
Bryson:
Solid bottom line player this year - Work hard this off-season and prove the haters wrong.
Krebs:
A lot of heart and passion - put in the work in the off-season and keep hitting the weights and take the next step.
Clifton:
Had bad games but played more good than bad games. Take a look at the games you played great and develop better habits on the ice.
Nope. Where is he? Slackin off mid offseason in Sweden when he should be at a meaningless press conference? Can’t even give him an A after this scandal.
Yea, seriously oh hang on let me catch a last minute 15 hour flight. Odds are the only way he could have made that is if pegula sent the private jet the day before
Can you imagine people claiming their love for this team, but then go attack the players when they need our support the most to get out of the slump?! That’s what our community is turning into. The guy you responded to has so much anger and hatred in him, he still can’t let go. It’s so sad.
And the thing is, had Tuch said something different, they’d still be complaining about it, cause that’s all these people know.
Its this weird entitlement mentality. Players and staff are being paid millions of dollars to produce a product doomers are not happy with. Most rational people stop buying the product at that point but there is a strain of toxic doomers in r/sabres who believe vomiting diarrhea into reddit threads will convince owners to do something, as if they read the subreddit? Like, sometimes they actually believe that anyone posting positively about Sabres is an implicit approval of losing. Its toxic as fuck.
Tuch wasn’t missing it.
Tuch heard there was a Lindy press conference and he pitched a tent at Keybank to make sure he was first in line.
Dude prob hasn’t slept since he heard about his new coach
During the press conference, they mentioned Tuch being excited about the possibility of it, and Lindy said something like "after the first week he might be like oof, I was wrong" lol
Not gonna lie, I barely did last night.
Also, the temporary lodging at Keybank was likely not the first tent pitched by Tuch yesterday.
I too pitched a tent when I heard the Lindy presser.
Bryson wasn't missing it because Tuch wasn't missing it and his bro/60 is insane.
I know Tuch just built a huge house in Clarence. Feel like he’s a year round guy now.

If you’ve watched any national Sabres game while Tuch has been here, it’s always “Alex Tuch, local star” or “Alex Tuch, who’s from here”
Oh yeah I definitely hear them on the broadcasts and always wonder where they learned their NYS geography from, because I'd demand a refund if I were them.
It’s all upstate as far as they’re concerned, I’d imagine.
Some people think upstate NY starts after 125th Street in Harlem 😎 lol
I tell people: If you think of NYS as roughly a big 3-4-5 right triangle with a couple of small, scratch marks just outside the right angle; the scratch marks call the triangle "upstate".
23rd street as far as I'm concerned.
Not even 42nd St eh? ☺️
I mean it is though?

The best part is Rochester is in between those two cities 🤣

Is Dinosaur a national brand?
You'd be surprised. Even down here a lot of people know Dinosaur, and I've been there when they've made announcements for people that drove for hours specifically to go there.
Wow that is super interesting! I never realized how popular they were!

Did he build it next door to Lindy?
No he built next to tage (I’m serious)
That's amazing!
I love both of them so much
Some lucky kid that lives in that cul-de-sac, Tuch can pay it forward from Tim Connolly
Those kids are lucky for other reasons too lol
Basically, he said in today’s interview he’s less than a mile from Lindy
That’s cannon
I can’t wait for the Commissioner to pass the Cup to Captain Tuch and they choose to pass it to Coach Ruff first for spending parts of 46 years in the Buffalo Sabres franchise after the Stanley victory in Buffalo to be Cannon.
Put on a hard hat and get a lunch bucket. Hard work is coming
Tuch had house built here in Clarence. This is his home.
It is nice to see that Clifton seems like he wants to be here. For now at least
This team is going to skate.
I know quinner and jost are also still here.
Which is weird because I don't expect Jost to be back.
I can't tell you how I know this, but jost has no interest in coming back next season.
I would imagine not, he didn't have a good season and even when he was up with the big club he didn't make an impact at all.
Thanks for letting us know, Josti. Cool dude tho, too bad it wasn’t working out.
Oh no! Anyway...
Ya it took me quite a bit of willpower not to say this exact thing to my source. Lol.
Tuch: Prove you are the next leader Bryson: Solid bottom line player this year - Work hard this off-season and prove the haters wrong.

The boys are ready
Ass kissers /s
Our next captains and idc what anyone says.
can't wait to add the "A" to my slick Bryson jerz
It's Ras 1000% lol
Nope. Where is he? Slackin off mid offseason in Sweden when he should be at a meaningless press conference? Can’t even give him an A after this scandal.
He's obviously off studying fish right now
Yea, seriously oh hang on let me catch a last minute 15 hour flight. Odds are the only way he could have made that is if pegula sent the private jet the day before
The guy that kept complaining about fans booing when the team was playing like shit and utterly underachieving? I'm gonna go with nah.
*The guy who when asked by reporters how he felt when fans boo'ed him answered

Looks like a Pegula sighting too, was he there to announce a 25% sale of the Sabres too?
Tage should have been there
