Rob Ray a Senator

[starfirestar]

I don't understand this. Rob Ray was the heart and soul of this team. He had great community work in Buffalo. He was a leader. I don't understand why they let this guy go. I thought he would finish his career in Buffalo.

Yah this is a weird move maybe Ottawa gets May too, then reunite the bash brothers.

Go Ottawa Sabres Go!!

now give us Satan and Zhitnik for a couple draft picks and some prospects.

[BironsGirl43]

Hush mouth sensfan!! lol..

I'm sad to see Ray go.. I'll always root for him in a fight! Ray will be missed..

My question is this. Just what are "Future considerations" anyways. Is that like saying go ahead and take the player for now, we'll let you know what it will cost later on sometime?

[The Spaz]

I know that there are sentimental feeling toward him but we will get something for him it may not be much but when he retires next year we woldn't get anything for him! GO Sabres!

[Twistmyarm]

future considerations........unbelievable:madshake:

[Earthquake Enyart]

A flat zamboni tire and a bag of pucks....

[WereRat]

I know I am going to miss seeing him throw his power (and punches) around.
Hey, that means the Leafs game was his last fight as a Sabre...
Least it was a good one ;-)

[The Spaz]

Listen it's time to rebuild what kind of team do we have now? We really don't have one! With new ownership hopefully he'll be able to right this thing if not then hell I'll be ticked but RAYZOR was on his last tour maybe he wins a cup with theSenators and I'll be haapy for him. That being said just getting something and anything for him is better than nothing or the same! Go Sabres!

[WereRat]

I think we all agree with you, just hate to see him go is all, you know how that is.

This team is going down hill FAST !! Thank God football starts in a few months !!!!!

[WereRat]

Odd, I remember saying the same thing about the Bills when they hit 3-13 for the season a few years ago. Every team in every sport will have highs and lows... The only thing constant are some of us fans who are in thick or thin. ;-)

[dockwalliper]

Rob was asked....

Report is that Ray was asked to OK the trade and he said yes. Hate to see him go but it gives him one last kick at the cup so Im happy for him. After the season he will likely retire and return to Buffalo where he belongs.

[WereRat]

Maybe he will come back in a coaching position of some sort...
