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

He's 18, an got 4 goals, 5 assists playing on the Bruins' 3rd line with PJ Axelson and Brian Rolston- not quite Murray and Samsanov there. ..... and is a playmaker! - most important- he's conrtributing NOW! He's getting on the PP and they are putting this kid in clutch situations and he's come through.
Not sure if you have had the opportunity to catch the B's, but they have had a great season so far. They had a better west coast trip than the Sabres did, and have come back in a bunch of games from 2-3 goal deficits to tie /win. Bergeron has sparked some of these comebacks with clutch 3rd period points.
The Sabres have finished out of the playoffs and continue to draft guys we won't see for years- if EVER. Who's the last #1 we drafted playing a regular shift for Buffalo right now?

20 C Daniel Paille

22 C Jiri Novotny
2000
15 F Artem Kryukov
1999
20 L Barrett Heisten
1998
18 D Dmitri Kalinin
1997
21 G Mika Noronen
Kalinin isn't close to being our best defenseman and Nooronen is the 3rd best Goalie on the depth chart.
That's all we have to show for it. It would be one thing if this team drafted guys who wound up with other teams (like the Islanders- they have an all-star team playing for other organizations)
