#Hockey: on Saturday, I presented Kyle Palmieri with a set of 1942 World War II dog tags; yet another incredible event by @KPalmieriFdn first-class all the way Photos by @AMordzynski#NJDevils#NJHockey
After bringing the Sabres to the playoffs for the first time in 14 years, Lindy Ruff loses the Jack Adams Award to Jon Cooper, a coach he beat 3/4 this season and finished ahead of in the standings
Lindy Ruff took a 79-point team and turned it into a 102 point contender in a single season. The #Sabres finished near the top of the NHL in wins, points percentage, 5-on-5 scoring, and penalty killing while posting one of the biggest year-over-year improvements in franchise history. Yet somehow he wasn't named Coach of the Year. The voters should be ashamed of themselves. If this isn't a Jack Adams-winning season, what exactly is? Not Jon Cooper's team just because he never won one before! #LetsGoBuffalo
