    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips October 5, 2019 Buffalo hosts New Jersey in conference matchup Associated Press October 5, 2019 New Jersey Devils (0-0-1, fifth in the Metropolitan Division) vs. Buffalo Sabres (1-0-0, third in the Atlantic Division) Buffalo, New York; Saturday, 7 p.m. EDT BOTTOM LINE: Buffalo takes on New Jersey in Eastern Conference action. Buffalo went 19-25-8 in Eastern Conference action and 21-15-5 at home a season ago. The Sabres scored 46 power play goals with a 19.5% success rate on power play opportunities last season. New Jersey finished 19-28-5 in Eastern Conference play and 11-27-3 on the road in the 2018-19 season. The Devils recorded 355 assists on 219 total goals last season. The matchup Saturday is the first meeting of the season for the two teams. Sabres Injuries: None listed. Devils Injuries: Cory Schneider: day to day (undisclosed). Sabres preparing to face 'dangerous' New Jersey Devils in home opener By Lance Lysowski The Buffalo News October 4, 2019 The seats inside KeyBank Center were empty when Ralph Krueger arrived in Buffalo for his first official day of work in June. The Sabres' new coach delivered an impassioned speech to team employees and spoke glowingly of the passionate fan base during his introductory news conference with the media. Krueger expressed excitement for the challenge ahead and the privilege of coaching a franchise that was held in high regard by friends and former colleagues, including Miroslav Satan and Uwe Krupp. Yet, Krueger wasn't interested in focusing on the past, specifically why the Sabres' playoff drought reached a National Hockey League-worst eight seasons.

  • Fact Or Fiction? Name: Below Is a Biography On
    Fact or Fiction? Name: _________________________ Below is a biography on Amelia Earhart. On the following page is a chart with ten statements. Indicate whether each statement is fact or fiction. Bad Behavior George Herman "Babe Ruth" was born February 6, 1895, in Baltimore, Maryland. His parents owned a saloon near the current site of Camden Yards in Baltimore. They were of German descent and taught him to speak German fluently. George was actually somewhat of a petty criminal as a young boy. By age seven he was already involved in drinking alcohol and chewing tobacco. Because he was too difficult for his parents to control, George was sent away to a catholic school. It was here, where Brother Matthias taught him baseball. As a teenager, George became the team's catcher and then pitcher. Unusual Talent At the age of 19 Jack Dunn, a scout for the Orioles discovered George's baseball talents. He was promptly signed to pitch for the Orioles. After performing well as a pitcher and a batter for the Orioles during spring training, George made the team. Because he was such a young talent, he earned the nickname "Babe". On April 22, 1914, Babe pitched a shutout against the Buffalo Bisons in his Major-League debut. Because the Orioles were in poor financial shape, Jack Dunn was forced to sell off his best players. Babe was sold to the Boston Red Sox in 1914 for an amount between $20,000 and $35,000. Called up to the Majors After pitching for the Red Sox minor league club in Providence, Rhode Island, Babe was called up to the majors permanently toward the end of the 1914 baseball season.

  • 2020 International League Field Managers Eight Il Clubs to Be Led by New Skippers This Season
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE February 11, 2020 2020 INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE FIELD MANAGERS EIGHT IL CLUBS TO BE LED BY NEW SKIPPERS THIS SEASON When the International League's 137th season opens on April 9, eight of the circuit’s fourteen teams will have a new manager leading the quest to capture the coveted Governors’ Cup trophy. Only six managers return from the 2019 season, although several of the League’s new field generals bring pre-existing ties to their teams and communities. It is the first time since 2006 that more than half of the circuit’s clubs changed managers during an offseason. The reining IL Manager of the Year Damon Berryhill is the International League’s longest- tenured manager, preparing to begin his fourth season at the helm of the Gwinnett Stripers. Also hoping to get his team back to the postseason is Brady Williams, who took Durham to the finals in his first year with the Bulls in 2019. They will be challenged in the South Division by another returning manager in Norfolk, Gary Kendall. The 2018 IL Manager of the Year, Lehigh Valley’s Gary Jones, will lead the IronPigs once again this season. Like Jones, Brian Esposito in Indianapolis is also at the helm for the third straight campaign. IL Hall of Famer Billy McMillon will manage the Red Sox for the franchise’s final season at McCoy Stadium in Pawtucket. Two men have found themselves moving from a coach’s role to the manager’s chair in 2020. Pennsylvania-native Doug Davis (former Syracuse manager) takes over in Scranton/Wilkes- Barre after three seasons coaching, while in Columbus, Ohio-native Andy Tracy is the new manager after helping lead the Clippers to the 2019 Governors’ Cup title as hitting coach.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips March 9, 2021 Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin experiencing growing pains in new role on defense By Lance Lysowski The Buffalo News March 9, 2021 PHILADELPHIA – Rasmus Dahlin did not hang his head. He didn’t even glance at a group of New York Islanders swarming forward Matt Martin to celebrate their fifth goal Thursday night. Dahlin, now a 20-year-old defenseman and 164 games into a National Hockey League career that began with his selection first overall at the 2018 draft, skated toward the Buffalo Sabres’ bench and used his right hand to lift his stick in the air to signal for a line change. Martin, a fourth-line grinder known more for his right hook than scoring touch, had just skated by Dahlin and across the front of the Sabres’ net before jamming the puck past goalie Jonas Johansson to seal the Islanders' 5- 2 win. In years past, Dahlin’s frustration might have boiled over. One of the NHL’s bright young defensemen, Dahlin has grown accustomed to the sometimes overwhelming emotion that comes with failure. He’s experienced more than his fair share during his third season in the NHL. Entering Monday, Dahlin owned a league-worst minus-21 rating – on pace for minus-75 if this were an 82-game season – and advanced metrics illustrate how he’s struggling at times to adjust to a bigger role defensively. “It comes (down to forgetting) things, it comes (down) to working harder,” Dahlin said matter of factly. “You are allowed to get (upset) at yourself.

  • Testing Services Update
    TESTING SERVICES UPDATE VOLUME 4 ISSUE 3 August 2015 We’re Celebrating 50 Years! View Thank you for clicking into this special edition. In this issue, Brochure you won’t find our usual technical articles. Instead, we are reminiscing with vintage photos of our equipment and now >> snapshots about life in 1965, when we opened this testing laboratory. Our usual technical information and format will resume with the next issue. As director of the lab, I began working here 30 years ago. But I first visited the facility in 1977, while working for a previous employer. I was fresh out of college, knowing little, and assigned to help build acoustical test walls. I learned more in a few months of hands-on test assembly construc- tion here than during my five years of higher education. I remember I was impressed by the facility’s size and exciting fire testing, but found viewing the acoustical tests after we completed each wall as being boring. At that time, the test conductor would take measurements one frequency at a time, inserting and removing each jack plug, ngctestingservices.com and hand recording each reading. It took more than five hours to complete a single ASTM E90 (STC) test. Today, we simultaneously record data for all frequencies and multiple microphone locations using real-time analyzers and computers. This reduces the test time to about an hour and significantly improves accuracy. Technology has also enhanced our capabilities to record data in fire testing. Back Life In 1965 then, we collected all of our data using only mechanical strip charts.
