Yikes, a man that has gone on way too long. I almost forget how good he was with how bad he has been.
Wholly agree.I'm really frustrated about the idea of Dunleavy taking over the play by play full time, specifically on the radio. I suppose we've been spoiled by RJ, but Dunleavy gives almost no description of the on-ice play if you aren't viewing it. There are huge gaps in time and he almost never references where they are on the ice and sometimes who even has the puck. There is almost no point in listening when he calls it - you have no idea what is going on.
They need to seriously consider an independent radio broadcast if they are going to keep Dunleavy full time on the TV side.

Sabres will give jersey to him on last game with letters J.R.
I'd suggest naming the press box after him if they hadn't already named it after Ted Darling. What else could they name after him? Maybe the bar on the 100 Level?I know he doesn't have a number to retire, but he belongs in the rafters
