It's even more special when it happens in Toronto, and from the looks of it, in a rout. That said, a bunch of Sabres fans gleefully celebrating a team getting getting eliminated probably isn't an awesome look. Sure, it feels good, but Sabres Elimination Day is a winter holiday.

To be fair, the new Shaboozy song *is* a banger.

There's nothing the Sabres can say at this point that will make me care about next season. The Miss Buffalo has sailed.

General Manager

Hear me out: what if we trade out a bunch of guys of picks and upcoming prospects, be terrible next year and get a great pick, something, and then the cup will be paraded in front of City Hall? It just might work.

"If Canadians stay away"? They already are. We're booking vacation stuff out west and there are surprising amounts of discounts and stuff available. My parents mentioned that Florida has been quieter than normal this winter. They listen to Fox, so it's "because the Canadian dollar is down" and not "the seething hatred for the US government and border hassles".

So you're saying the team just needs more Dahlin-level players?

See, the Sabres have been playing 4d chess. The team is so awful, and players that get traded suddenly get better, that everyone is clamoring to trade for our mediocre prospects because it's just the team that's hindering them.

You've been going to the same place your parents went to (or your family switched when Steve moved on and is working at the other pizza joint down the street). That's like 9/10 of the pizzas you buy. You know the number by heart, 655-4646 (and I haven't lived anywhere near WNY in 25+years).

There's no "What's the point?" option. Strange.

Hoping no one gets hurt so the new GM has the full list of assets to bargain with.

Beware Sabres hope on the ides of March.

Is it time for the annual "Wow, the Sabres are showing life in March! Next year is the year!" event already? My, how time flies.

We've been saying that for a decade.
