Counting Down to the Silly Season

The Stanley Cup Final will indeed come to an end on tonight, with the seventh game taking place at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.

While the Boston Bruins and St. Louis Blues duke it out for hockey’s highest honor, all eyes in the Western New York area will be ready to turn from their television sets to the Buffalo Sabres front office.

With the official announcement of Jeff Skinner’s long-term commitment to the Sabres organization days ago, many locally saw that as a kick start to the best time of the year – silly season.
