They also announced her show pretty late, doesn’t help with sales. But yeah Shania didn’t help. It wasn’t even on our schedule. Had to call a bunch of people in because they didn’t know they had to work.

When I was flying out this week I spent a deal of time in Toronto at the airport, was chatting with some locals and it's really sad to hear their perspective on coming over. Many just aren't, citing hassles at the border and etc... A few even said last time they came across the border patrol was asking their opinions of the political situation and the president, which seems wrong and probably not legal. I don't think the rest of the country understands how much this crap is hurting the local economy and on a larger scale the economy on a whole. Add that to the fact that we haven't properly recovered from the pandemic as of yet and here we are. To keep it back on point, I'm supposed to go see we lost the sea in Cleveland this week (post rock) band

Bottom line to me we have seen this show in some variation 14 times... we made some precursory changes by trying to get a bit better defensively and grit wise by removing offense and one of our better young offensive players... still need a G, and a C... the more it changes the more it stays the same most people will view this until it actually does change. Maybe it will maybe it won't but I can't blame the same ol same old folks... I am probably one of them hoping against hope a new mix of player finally gets it to click... but deep down i know that isn't a likely forgone conclusion...

Darien Lake’s lineups have been ***** for a few years too.

Shania Twain was playing at Darrien Lake last night and that show was sold out so that was part of it. Still, I thought the small crowd was probably due in part to Canadian’s not coming over. The people behind us were from Hamilton though. She put on a very good show, she brought a lot of energy, she talked about Art Park being a special place for own career development. I felt bad for the small crowd but it made it easy to get in and out and no concession lines was nice. Still, she deserved a bigger crowd. I’m betting the Sabres see a similar affect. When and where?

Guessing he wants more than that or his attitude really does stink.

Yep. Used to have a pile of Canadian money at the end of the night. I don’t think we’ve had any this year. The line up is pretty bad. Has been going down hill for a few years.

Lots of Canadians that used to go to those shows staying home. Artpark lineup wasn’t very good overall this year too. In years where Artpark’s lineup is pretty solid, I know I stay way more interested in their schedule. When they announced this season’s initial lineup in early Spring I yawned and stopped paying attention.

rankings this early are so you now some names, outside of McKenna you can ignore where everyone is ranked until January.

The league should be beyond worried, when one of its owners acts like a feckless used car salesman with one of their precious franchises. Or does Pegula’s success with the Bills and the Bandits make them as delusional about his impact on their success as he is?

She put on a good show. Artpark crowds have been bad this year. They sold 750 tickets for last night. Second show under 1000 this year and two others just made it over 1000

Old and new school hockey people don’t like the Sabre approach for the primary reason that it hasn’t work. There are a variety of methods to success. The problem for the Sabres is that it is ineptly implemented.

The bolded is a stupid thing to say. The only other forum I'm a member of is twobillsdrive and I've never been banned. It's what libtards do, baseless accusations when triggered. Trump is an idiot, you're not breaking news there. Unlike you and K-9, I don't openly root for my country to fail to spite him.

Heading to my seemingly annual visit with the Goo Goo Dolls on Tuesday at Chastain Park. Should be fun as always.

I thought you were talking about Tuch lol

No. Just the brainwashed few that are still supporting him after everything that has happened. It's great to see that they cannot stop supporting him no matter what comes out with him. It's the MAGA brainwashed cult mentality. Go down with the sinking ship 😁 It didn't take long before you became unhinged and showed why you were banned in the other forums. He let slip in a recent interview that his name is all over the Epstein files and went on to try and say it was put there by the democrats. Imagine believing something like that after knowing for a FACT he was one of Epstein's best friends for years, he ran Miss America which had many underage girls in it. I will release the files, there are no files, there are files but if they mention my name they are fake. Only a brainwashed individual would keep supporting him.

I’m not sure anyone considers the hockey news a major publication anymore but two things; 1) I didn’t say it was universally accepted 2) it’s no coincidence that old school hockey people don’t like the Sabres approach.

Good catch. Valid point.

Instigators podcast? Chad D?

You think Connor is going to get 8.5m a year?

Just got back from the UK, kicked around for the week but ultimately flew over and saw Tim Minchin in Sheffield, it was an amazing show. So funny and crazy talented on the keys.

Man, I remember rocking out to Mass pike and Valentine back In the day!

Took my wife and her two nieces to Art Park to see Grace Potter tonight. Good show. I’m tired. 😴 Bed time for me.
