BU offseason thread - this begs some questions!

Re: BU offseason thread - this begs some questions!

Following Sabres development camp, Buffalo signed Brandon Hickey to a two-year entry-level contract. Hickey was recently traded from Arizona to Buffalo.

Free agent Eric Gryba gets a 1-year, 2-way contract with the Devils, rejoining BU blueline partner Brian Strait who re-signed with NJ earlier.

Crone transferring to DU, will play in USHL next season.

I have no respect for that decision. It was his "dream school" but it was too hard so he has to quit and try somewhere else?

This was in the works before the coaching change
Was a big scorer in USHL
Not sure what the problem was last year.
Moved around a lot and actually a scratch a few games
good speed and scoring touch

Re: BU offseason thread - this begs some questions!

HC women playing in HE is one thing.. Q would be great for H.E. on the men's side. Great venue, good fan support. Good atmosphere, good hockey.
