Everytime I listen to WGR when Paul Hamilton is on, he mispronounces the name Helenius. And not just saying it the wrong the same way. He says it wrong a different way every time. HELL-nus, hell-NEE-iss, etc. It's embarrassing a Sabres beat reporter can't learn a name after 2 years. And no one else at WGR corrects him.

Aren’t Metsa and Bryson essentially the same player?

I don’t know how long Samuelsson will be out. This could turn out be a good opportunity for Ryan Johnson to show that he belongs with the big club. I don’t know how Mrtka is going to be handled. One can make a good case for a variety of options. This will be an interesting situation to follow.

14 years in the desert and 4 or so "non-blocking" years have skewed our perspectives. (The Peterka kerfuffle doesn't help matters either.) He'll be fine starting in Ra-cha-cha and will get a legit look before this season is over. His playing the same side and role Samuelsson is supposed to play will almost guarantee it. We're really close to seeing only 1-2 rookies starting the year in Buffalo As they finally have a full lineup of NHL caliber players with only 1-2 teens on the roster, they don't have to rush players up. Though w/ 3 D injured, Mrtka might still end up being rushed up. Hopefully he's the last of the guys rushed up.

Yes. They wore silver & blue that 1st season. But, IMHO, that ice jersey evokes Dallas' threads more than Detroit's. (Thus calling them Lions/Cowboys.)

1 thing to remember is, if they send him back to Ra-cha-cha rather than Juniors before his 9 games is up, he can still get brought up again and also if he cumulatively doesn't get a 10th game this year won't burn a year of his ELC. This is unlike loaning him back to Seattle which if they do that, he could only be brought back on an emergency basis or after their season is done. So, if he's Ra-cha-cha bound, he might be the 1st guy sent down when somebody gets healthy enough to play after the season starts to save some of those 9 games for later in the year. If he's Seattle bound, expect him to get all 9 games before going back.

The stadium-goers have bought a lot of the rivalry alternate uniforms. With SNF, I presume they’re hoping to scale that # up.

I messed up, I just assumed Ulf and Kjell were brothers.

If Rempe is sticking with the rangers squad then you can guarantee Geertson will be lacing up the skates on opening night.

Tbh I am curious about the reasons 🤔

I know that, and our goathead isn't a goat. I'm saying the side view they used on our jerseys looked like the Sabres "goathead". Pay attention.

Well they don't have a lot of depth so they have a bunch of games before they have to commit to a decision.

Tuch - Norris - Thompson Zucker - Kulich - Quinn Benson - McLeod - Doan Malenstyn - Krebs - Dunne Dahlin - Byram Power - Kesselring Sammuelsson - Timbits Johnson UPL Lyon

Lions, not Cowboys. The Bills' original uniforms were Lions colors. Ralph was a minority owner of the Lions before getting his own team.

Can't believe this one slid right by; it's quality humour it is.

I don’t think there’s any surprises to be had. Since the offseason acquisitions, the only disagreements were on line combinations and pairings. Nothing really as far as the overall roster.

You think every person “trained” or manipulated into distrusting others outside their group are hateful to begin with? That is incorrect.

Let's just call it as it is. Sameulsson... Year to year

That's a ram bro

1.) Benson- Norris- Thompson 2.) Quinn- Kulich- Tuch 3.) Zucker- McLeod- Doan 4.) Malenstyn- Krebs- Greenway 1.) Dahlin- Byram 2.) Kesselring- Power 3.) Timmins- Samuelsson 1.) Lyon Georgiev backup (Until UPL is back)

I ordered one for my wife from the NFL website and delivery time is 6 weeks. Disappointing timeline but they do look cool in my opinion (and I hope, in hers as well)

If Byram and Power are out for a short period why not give Mrtka a couple games, he earned it

Yes, I think they will keep Mrtka because of the injuries. He gets a trial run and then they will decide where he goes.

We will need Geertsen and Dunne in the line up when we play Rempe and Jeannot in Boston and Brady in Ottawa and the Xjeha brothers in Montreal

There’s a lot of hockey to come this year. If he keeps on track, he’ll see time this year. Again, he’s 22 and we’ve rushed far too many players in recent years. Let him lead that Rochester team for a bit and then give him his time.
