I really like this move. I think this could be even better than if they'd signed Babcock. I'm a big fan of Bylsma's demeanor and coaching style. Class act all the way.

He did a lot for the amount of injuries those teams had during his tenure.

That compensation loophole is stupid though. Oh well, good choice by the Sabres.

Am excited for the season. Cannot wait. (well, yes I can because I still want a summer). But this is great news. Go Sabres!
