They picked a guy for his replacement, and the guy personally said himself, if he is announcing a potential Sabres Stanley Cup finals, he said if RJ is able to announce it he'll step aside and let him. So he has more than 3 years to call a Stanley Cup, it's just a matter of if the team will get a Stanley cup in x amount of years. |

The odds of RJ coming back to do that are slim, I'd think, even if DD stepped aside. Rick would be too much of a classy guy to allow DD to relinquish the role to him just for that. |

I don't doubt that if he was given the opportunity, he would. He will have an "honorary" status which I'm sure is meant for that purpose. The sad thing is, he's retiring never having a chance to say that the Buffalo Sabres win the Stanley Cup. |

Best news of the year for the Sabres. I hope they can build a team in 2 years so his final called game could be a Stanley Cup winning game. We can dream though. |
