yeah pretty much like honestly yeah we got and we got guys if they're uh if they're european we you know hopefully they can quickly get the visa and show up for uh for development camp yeah that's how it goes that buffalo team though that you guys ended up forming and you mentioned like derrick roy vanik palmonville like big parts that were a part of the run in rochester and
Yeah, no, I mean, it's a hockey-crazy city.
I mean, it's a big part of the culture of all of Western New York.
I think just the fans in Rochester are great.
Like, we had good teams, and there's a pride behind that history of that team, you know, separate from the Sabres in their own history, how they built themselves up.
And the affiliation has been great.
It went away for a little while, but bringing it back and locking it down has been huge.
You know, that's...
two parts of western new york that you gotta have and when you kind of understand start to click in like the the history and the fans and like it it really is amazing that i got to play there honestly like it just kind of fit my style my personality what i'm comfortable with and and i think the reputation of like buffalo and western new york you kind of
it's it's nothing until you experience it uh and experience the real pride people have the passion they have and how genuine the people are like if you're willing to be a part of their community i mean you're in like and it's give take right like they're gonna give you everything yeah if you can give something to them like it's amazing so like that's that was like the way i really felt
connected and I think it really helped me uh play there I felt like well I can contribute to them on the ice but I also was trying to do stuff off the ice and go out in the community and help out where I could but also just get out just be social and just make friends and be around and and that's uh and that was a big part of it like you felt like connected and then when there's that much buzz and we were that good like that's what kind of I think
put everything over the top.
That's why we were able to do all that.
And I went to the Sabres game last night.
They were in town to play Anaheim.
And best case scenario, went to overtime.
Perfect for me.
But I was talking to some of the boys and some of the coaching staff and the trainers.
And they're just like, Millsy, it's back.
And I was just like, that's awesome.
