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!
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

Who Will Make the Play-offs First -- The Bills or The Sabres?
Re: Who Will Make the Play-offs First -- The Bills or The Sabres?
If you held a gun to my head I'd say the Bills. If they get rid of the dead wood and have another good draft they can turn the corner. I don't know about Marone though so who knows. I wish he'd showed more fire. I want to see him pissed off after a game like today.
Easier to make it in the NHL and the Sabres at least have a direction, and an owner who isn't selling off home games.
The NHL Salary Cap is about to go up big over the next 5 years. Will the Sabres owner spend to the cap? So far his choices for management have been bad.

He will have to some degree. There is a cap floor in the new CBA and the team has ditched anyone with significant salaries except Miller and Leino, and Miller's contract expires after this season (although he'll likely get moved before that).

sabres.
Their owner cares about buffalo, is looking to make the hockey team of the build out of more hockey in the area and is willing to get it wrong at times in the hopes of getting it right. he is attempting to build a winner and play all his home games in the town that pays him the most for it. Additionally, for a team to miss the playoffs 14 years in the NHL would take skill seeing that half of the east teams get in.
the bills, on the other hand, don't care about football. they don't care about the city. They don't care about their players. They care that ralph, russ, and littman get their bonuses. and that sometimes means shipping games away. sometimes it means cutting a player. Sometimes it means sticking with a useless coach past his due date. sometimes it means trying to spice things up by partaking in marketing gimmicks like TO. The bills don't want to be in buffalo AR (after ralph), and there are few people who will want to pay the price and then keep them in a market that won't churn the profit needed.
Re: Who Will Make the Play-offs First -- The Bills or The Sabres?
I think the Bills make the playoffs after next season. I think it's going to take the new regime in the Sabres to get untracked, so I'll say the Bills.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
