All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
This is only a test
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Yes we overpay for 1-2 year deal. He's not signing for $3 million, espsecially to a team like Buffalo..... But we wouldnt be committed for 5 years- and this team has a lot of young talent, a vet like FOrsberg might really help a Vanek or Stafford take the next step.
I like Souray, is a little bit of a liability on defense, but who cares if he is scoring PP goals.
Players that I also think would be succesful in this system:
Mike Comrie
Jeff Freisen
Bill Guerin
Michal Handzus
Ladislav Nagy
Michael Nylander
Brendan Shanahan
Bryan Smolinski
Alexei Yashin
Dainius Zubrus
Defencemen
Brian Berard
Roman Hamrlik
Tom Preissing
Brent Sopel
Brad Stuart
Souray is like Spacek, just a lot BETTER. I'd live with some defensive liabilities, epecially if he played with someone steady like Tallinder or maybe Tepo if he came back. If our Power play wasnt so disgusting we STILL beat Ottawa last year, no doubt.
As for the list: Id love Guerin or Shanahan. Both are great short term leaders and we do have enough young guns to make a run still with a couple of guys like these. however, I dont see any vets looking to make one final run having ANY interest in coming to Buffalo after the perception we're painting.
I hate Yashin more than any player in teh entire NHL. Nylander signed with Edmonton. I want Zubrus back given the current circumstances. I like COmrie a lot, very very underated.
Defensively, SOuray is the only one from that list Im interested in.
I dont care about any available backup goalies because if Miller gets hurt next year we're going in the gutter.
