Le sigh. You're welcome, Amerks! You don't get to have your heart-and-soul AHL-level stud veteran in the lineup for opening night. You also don't get Kozak or either Bryson/Johnson because of injuries. Now, Dunne should've been in the lineup and Geertsen waived to Rochester based on play in the preseason, but they had to keep Ruff happy. Now, you've got 2 fourth line low-minute energy guys at the NHL level instead of one.

Don't see anything saying Gerrtsen was waived so Another stupid addition to the roster this time by Lindy Ruff, Gerrsten

According to Duffer, Mrtka is paired with Rathbone tonight. I don’t mind that.

Should have been ‘Send In The Clowns.’

Ah looo haaaa ser.

Gotcha. Yet another reason to hate social media. I don't like Sabrehood. Seems forced. At least Bills Mafia came about organically.

again as this was pointed out to me before... you are correct... the point was he didnt even make it thru a game ... he hurt himself taking a face off... like no one touched him... so yes he did make it thru 2 full periods... without getting hurt... my bad... bottom line is another inept trade and we as a team are worse for making it if this porcelain princess is hanging all year in the hot tub with Muel...

Death Be Not Proud.

Me to, they might not win a game in all of October

But it's also intended be an affiliation of a group -- like a fraternity or sorority.

Sheeeyit. They did a huge promo piece for it at the start of last season. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/video/welcome-to-the-sabrehood-6363052964112 Watching that video again, I get it why people view the brand as a physical, geographic neighbourhood.

The franchise is promoting its Sabrehood brand everywhere at the moment and has been doing so for some time. When the European d-man was drafted (Mrtka (sp?)), the team's social media platforms welcomed him to the Sabrehood. Sabrehood was featured in multiple PR events and published recaps that the franchise did in the preseason. (One example -- https://www.nhl.com/sabres/multimedia/galleries/photos-sabrehood-summer-tour-2025-tops ) Sabrehood was emblazoned on the rally towels in the arena last night.

Yes. Heated too.

He got injured in the 3rd but whatever. Let me shoot a puck at your face and see how you do.

It's he in for Norris or is he replacing Geertsen?

I thought the power play was moving the puck really well and getting chances. They certainly kept the puck in the Rangers end more than usual. In fact I thought the Sabres put in a great effort last night. They were getting outplayed early, then took the game over. They were better than the Rangers for most of the game. They were physical and played solid defense but for two failed clears that led to goals. A couple of stupid puck luck goals late made it seem worse than it was. Of course if you didn't watch you wouldn't know that. See everyone Saturday. 😂

This says it all.

Sigh, guess Norris will be awhile

Disappointed they brought back the exact same coaching staff (minus Ruff, I'll give him another season). Powerplay is PATHETIC once again!

Per Sabres PR

Just remember it's just a game that you have no control over. It's just entertainment. Don't ever let anything you cannot control get you angry.

Should I know what you are talking about? Where do you see this being used?

The argument that "it's just one game" doesn't hold water any longer, not when you see the same issues that has plagued the team for years, such as the poor defense and PP, coupled with listless play in the season opener at home.

Hey now, come on. Faceoffs are hard. It’s the leading cause of upper body injuries, right?
