Rest in peace
Rest in peace RJ
Nastdra for everyone
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
RIP, thats so sad, even for me as a blues fan, thats very sad. 🙁
Truly an icon. I don't think I'd be the fan of this team that I am without this man. When they finally lift the cup, whether it's in 5 years or 50, I'll surely think of RJ.
I grew up imitating RJ. I'm just sad he never got to see them lift the Cup. He'll forever occupy the Top Shelf of Buffalo history.
I’m so sad, he made a difference in my life for hockey. Rip Rick
I had just met Rick a few days ago at a 716 day signing he truly was the best play by play reporter and was an even better person I hope his legacy live on and rest in piece Rick❤
R.I.P
Rip rj it's like my child hood is gone I was watching games listening to him since I was born
Rest easy, legend.
WISHING his family ALL the best in this tough time! #RIPRJ
I will always remember his incredible calls. You've more than earned your rest, RJ. May you be at peace, and watch over the team, and Buffalo, from above. ❤️
MAY DAY!!!!!
What an absolute Buffalo legend. Absolutely devastated…RIP RJ.
Tears are streaming down my cheeks. I'm wrecked. We will always love you RJ.
Any chance of uploading both RJ night games? Those were magical games.
A true legend…
I'm glad RJ was able to see his banner raised before his passing.
RIP RJ..😢
This hurts so bad. Best commentator in all of sports
That was a masterpiece
I'm not crying, you're crying. 😢 The Buffalo faithful will never forget you. Rest Easy RJ. We love you forever ❤️
Godamnit it shouldn’t have happened yet! We needed to give him a winning team before he went
"The Buffalo Sabres and RJ were meant for each other." I'm glad this team & city of Buffalo was able to show RJ how much we loved and appreciated him while he was alive. I grew up in an area that got the following teams on TV regularly: Sabres, Rangers, Islanders, Devils. Hearing RJ's calls as a teen is what got me to be a Sabres fan even though my family were Rangers fans. Even through rough years I couldn't not watch/listen, RJ was so electric and commanded your attention & excitement. He is the greatest Sabre of all time.
RIP RJ, we love you.
Truly the GOAT of Play callers. Stellar performance every game. What a gift to the Buffalo. RIP Rick
I will never forget that man. His calls will live on forever. Truly the best of all time a true sabre
Not a fan of the sabers bills or the city of Buffalo however I know who RJ is and have a ton of love and respect for him and what he means to the city , a true legend
I cant believe Hes Gone. Im A Maple Leafs Fan But When We Played Buffalo We Always Switched To Ricks Broadcast. Rest In Peace To One Of The Greatest
The very best sports commentator in US Sports, just my opinion from over the pond here in England
Beautifully done 🙏🏻❤️
It hurts to hear, one of the greats, Rest In Peace Rick, we all love you.
Rest Easy RJ. You'll live forever in the memories of Buffalonians and all Sabres fans.
