It's an accumulated sense of things. That wedding picture is consistent with it, I suppose. Moreover, getting married nowadays when you're 22 years old is part of it. Dude just comes off super trad. As does Thompson. And like I said: I'm not sure what to make of it. Does it inhibit team bonding? If I'm being cynical and sh1tty about it (haha - which means I'm about to be): It's almost giving Mormon vibes. Then again, Brigham Young fields some competitive ass football teams.

Before Peterka’s wishes became public knowledge was he on your hell no list? Don’t say no to a trade until you see what’s coming back.

Full disclosure, my Sabbath fandom lasted only a few albums and then I got much deeper into so many other music styles that "metal" as a genre never crept further into my record collection. I do not consider the early Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin to be metal either, although others refer to them in that genre. RIP Ozzy.

Still waiting for somebody to show me where the futility of the Sabres was the reason for Peterka’s departure. I’ve heard he didn’t like the city. He acted like he didn’t like the coach(es)

The Peterka situation was completely different from the players mentioned. JJP made it clear to the organization that he wanted to get the freak out of this ghetto franchise. He was not going to sign a new contract and was going to allow his contract to run for another year so he could be an UFA. The GM publicly stated that he wanted to keep him. The player essentially said F no! Once traded he quickly signed a new contract with Utah. In my view, the GM handled the situation reasonably well.

Did you get that impression from the pic above, or something else?

I understand your position but with respect to the young players named I still strongly say no. And, it is sad to say that even if our young players were dealt the return would not be adequate because good players have little desire to come to this shunned franchise. This is a sad and pathetic situation to be in.

I'm not sure what to make of how trad** two of the team's core players are/seem to be -- Thompson and Power. ** From the Know Your Meme website:

Unbelievably brilliant in Sabbath. He didn't write the lyrics but no one could deliver them like he did. I would have loved to have seen Sabbath in the early days.

Angry is over.

Maybe late 80s Ozzy but not during the Diary of A Madman tour in ‘82. His show at the Aud was legendary. It was Mid April, just weeks after Randy Rhoades untimely death. A few before Rhoades death in Iowa, he bit the head off a bat 🦇. The concert was so hyped. Rest in peace Great Ozz!

RIP Ozzy. Hard to pick a favourite song, so many to choose from.

Awww. Maybe he’ll learn to be a man now that he’s married.

Little known Ozzy fact.... He didn't get his license until 61. He failed his driving test 19 previous times. Mr. Tinkertrain no doubt the creepiest of his songs.

Sabbath’s hey day was a bit before my time. His solo career, while I could enjoy the music, he looked like an overweight house wife during the 80’s and 90’s so I wasn’t exactly gravitating toward his Karen like appearance. Ozzfest was really confusing to me in the beginning. I didn’t understand how this fat house wife curated all these awesome bands. Then it started to click. The man, the myth, the legend. The behind the music shows on VH1, not just his but the reverence other metal musicians had for him. I leaned into the Sabbath and it opened up the door a little wider for his solo stuff. Definitely love all his music now.

Seeing bands and artists was a common occurrence in those days at WOUR. Every band in for a show in Utica stopped by. And the Ozzy bunny thing was like 2 seconds. Then there was the time Molly Hatchet came by and brought some blow with them. You could actually hear them cutting lines on the air. (We kept an editing razor and a photo in a glass frame in the studio just for emergencies like this. 😜)

The point is to trade Quinn for an established current 30 goal scorer. The point of trading Power is to get a player like Brady Tkachuk. You use these players to catapult the franchise to the next echelon. Trade in maybes for definitelys. Pardon my poor grammar.

How’d you react to that? I have no idea how publicized the bat incident was.

Take a hike clown.

Not really with the cap going up this year. Dallas traded 1 guy I would have had interest in. Vegas... no one.

Congrats, Owen.

Personally, believe they should wear them for all 3 home divisional games (and if the Dolts come to town this year, don't expect they do, but it they do, wear them against them too).

🔥🔥🔥

Funny you mention this. I was talking to a friend in Seattle just yesterday and he mentioned the odds of the Sabres missing playoffs for 14 years is insanely small and he laughed at the ineptness of it all.

To be fair, label this the "Pegula Era Playoff Performance Chart"
