if they look good again tonight, i might start to get excited about the season. despite all rational thoughts telling me i'm just getting sucked in again. what can I say, I have a sabres problem

One of the biggest problems with the Sabres pp is still being ignored. They have shooters on each wing waiting to shoot. That hasn't worked in 4 years. Maybe they'll actually move this year, that would be new and different.

No, Tuch is out and McLeod is running his spot.

Tuch is out and was pencilled in the bumper.

I'd hope even if he was 'good enough' to crack the top 6 (I'm not sure if I'm even there) that you wouldn't have him on the roster this year. I'm not worried about him being 'good enough' this year. I want him to be VERY good in 3-4 years. Yes, you can develop at the NHL level, yes, he can have side sessions after practice with development coaches. But I think he'd learn more playing a lot more minutes and still dealing with development coaches, just not at the NHL level.

Will our full number one PP be together tonight?

I’m rooting for a tie.

It's still an awesome town.

Ooh ooh lemme guess! People = Food? I mean for some animals we are including people. 😋

I was going for the reactions. As usual, it landed like a helicopter without power. People = ***** was the clue, although there may be only 5 or 6 people on this site that know what is hidden by the word censor.

Way back in another life long ago, I frequently traveled to Portsmouth, NH and it is still one of my all time favorite places.

Didn't they have someone with a gummi bear song at one point?

No like the sabres of last year’s preseason, who went 6-1

Really old... like late '90s, where they outworked their opponent nearly all night and got solid goaltending? (And yes, it's only a preseason game against a half-CBJ roster with no Werenski) but after the first period, the Sabres forechecked and backchecked like you'd expect of a '90s dead-puck team.)

great town.

I totally agree with you... I just hope that he does it before the talented players on this team bolt...

You hit on what is so intolerable about this owner. When he was a new owner he deserved plenty of forbearance entering a new sports ownership endeavor. A generation is more than enough time to adjust to this new realm for him. He’s a stubborn fellow. However, I do see him backing off more. And that is a good thing.

They were inspired, particularly Party in the USA (which was fun to hear on the road that season during breaks in play --- they're wishing for Skinner to score on them!). Shoutout to Olofsson, too, for ABBA's Gimme Gimme Gimme. It's such a break from the "Grrr, make it louder. Yell into the PA that we're on the powerplay" of the rest of sports presentations these days, etc. Just have a singalong danceable frolic that everyone has heard. Now, if it's for everyone on the team and every goal, it probably gets obnoxious. But no worse than a Chelsea Danger.

Bring him back a goal song coordinator / comedic relief for MSG. I can’t imagine he’ll be playing much longer.

Oh, I think you are putting that nicely... I think the owner is clearly unaware that he is out of his league AND hires sycophants that bolster his delusional notion that he is some kind of a hockey guy... problem is after 14 years couldnt you figure that out TP? Like do you avoid mirrors at all costs?...

The D has come a long way the last few seasons. Albeit at the expenditure of doing anything else with the roster.
