I felt like I was on drugs watching that. Did someone shoot a marble rye down the ice, or was it just the meth talking?

This is absoilutely fecking brilliant! How awesome would it have been if Puddy had his face painted? It seems like they only gave names to one line plus the goalie. They could have done the whole roster...Tim Whatley, Bob Saccamano, Newman, Babu, J. Peterman, Jackie Chiles etc..
I think they did the whole roster. Newman lost his man on the winning goal in overtime — go figure. Of course he plays D. He can really carry that mail.

The "low talker" interview was great. I didn't catch an Art Vandelay, did anyone else?
He was a healthy scratch.

Well cows are a leading producer of methane.

The dairy industry is behind climate change.

Too awesome for the Awesome Thread.
This is just brilliant.

I thought maybe the city was still recovering from GOALNADO.

The psychology of sports was on full display last night. Jeanneret coming back, the building alive, and your home rink mostly hostile... don't tell me it didn't fire them up. A coach can't just conjure that stuff up every night. You have to have players who can find their own reasons to play like their hair's on fire, and I don't think Nolan has many of them, especially under the toxic tent that is Buffalo Sabres hockey these days.

Nothing more exciting then when it starts feeling right. It's normal to learn to crossover right before your learn to crossover left. I'm going to be practicing my backwards crossovers big time this winter once the ponds are frozen.
Skating in pads makes trying/learning a lot less scary. I'm definitely going to wear elbows, knees, and a helmet when I do mine.
Bbbbbbbackkwwwwwarddddds crossovers? Oh great.
How much adjustment is there to skating with equipment on after learning in street clothes? I can imagine the peace of mind that the equipment brings, but I also imagine there's some re-learning to do. For example, on crossovers, there'll be a lot less room between the legs.

Had a major breakthrough with crossovers today. Yesterday, nothing. Today, I was actually doing them one after another around the faceoff circle. I think it all goes back to tying the laces a little looser; my feet are suddenly cooperating. I also got the hang of what the inside skate should do (the one being crossed over). It goes to the outside edge but also slides to the right to open things up, then a little flick of the toe. Before, that skate was too static; I had two left feet during and after the crossover.
Then I skated down the ice and with some decent speed actually did a crossover or two in transition back up ice. It was quite the revelation. I was always afraid to make that move. I'm sure on video they would look like garbage, but in my mind they were awesome.
So, you know how the sequel always sucks? I started thinking, "Wait. I only crossed over going counter clockwise around the circle. You have to go the other way, too, dummy." Going that way, I was Stephen Hawking on quaaludes. Nothing. Left skate wouldn't even budge. I was psyched out.
I took my half victory and ran.
I've said it before and I hope anyone on the fence about learning to skate will believe me. It's so much fun! I actually had d4rk's line in my head for a moment today: I'm running with knives on my feet!

I thought I heard discussion of Gorges' injury on WGR last night as being so bad he could be done as a Sabre.
-
This. Forever.
What? Sabre ass in Leaf face?
-
To improve the Sabres play, Nolan hires two new coaches. Sabres will now have sky view and ice view coaching. Coincidentally, they are both named Tyler.
That is outstanding.

This is from the Sabres facebook page, first thing I saw was this fan :w00t:I see Moulson taking a picture.

Rick as 70s Rick, Dunleavy as 90s Gurgler.
-
Why does Rob call the ice "ground"?
-
Rick's voice almost seems to be "warming up." He's also hitting some notes he hasn't hit in years!
-
I know this will be controversial. Has Cody been tested for Cushing Disease?
Here's a link, but I will give you the highlights: Fatigue, Moon Face, thin skin with easy bruising, menstual cycle that becomes irregular, buffalo hump. It even sounds right.

i can't believe I pinned the hopes of this thread on the idea of a teenage boy answering texts from his uncle.

There is no defense of anyone in the organization. Together they committed an offense worthy of a mass firing. They spent 2 first round draft picks on a luxury while the only important position was not solved.
They are the football version of the guy who blows the rent money on strippers and puts his family out on the street.
Great analogy. You've been hanging out with Ghost too long, by the way.
-
When — OK, if — the Sabres score the ensuing faceoff should be delayed a moment to allow a replaying of the call. I'm sure the league would allow it under the circumstances. I don't know that Rick would like it.
-
Naw, he didn't die in a car wreck.
And he didn't almost die in a goal crease. I say Clint is more of a star than J.P. I should get half credit.
Do they cancel the Sabres/Sharks tomorrow? Nope.

Buffalo's reputation is only going to grow. The nuance between the city and southtowns is not apparent in the national media.
