Weber pissed about crowd reaction
The idea of lingering resentment worries me. Probably unnecessarily. If this were a marriage, though, you might consider it irreconcilable differences.
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Sabres fans who openly cheered for the Coyotes and/or against the Sabres are the same people who discovered the team after the lockout, wore the slug and suddenly lost interest in the fall of 2007. They think they smell a Cup, that's all.
-
Those aren't worry beads.
You sicko!
-
Would be neat if the Beauts were from Montana.
:worthy:
-
At least we still have the decency to cheer for Hackett when he gets up
I took the cheer as quite cynical, but that's just me. "And the crowd sure is appreciative" of the fact Hackett is staying in the game, Rick said. They sure were. A second round of applause for that. I am calling BS.

All of a sudden I envision carp working his worry beads, maybe wearing a shawl.

OMFG they're starting Kevin Kennedy over Doug Allen. 's gettin' real.

It really is a great word. I'm glad 11 used it in another thread to remind me of its existence. I plan on using it till I'm sick of it!
When you're sick of it, that will be the sign that you've become one.

"He's the devil, Pegula's the devil!" echoed the shouts around the HSBC Arena pavilion, cutting the brand-new owner of the Buffalo Sabres off in mid-sentence.
"He's going to lose on purpose! He's going to lose on purpose!"
"The worst team in hockey two years in a row!"
As every head spun around and Terry Pegula's mouth fell open, Mike Gilbert whispered into his sleeve, "Take him down" while at the same time he mentally cursed the decision to accept the lowest bid on arena security.
"Darcy, he'll be a Coyote, he'll be a Coyote! And the Sabres fans will be cheering for them, against the Sabres. They'll be cheering for the Coyotes! Against the Sabres! In this building!"
"And Darcy will be a Coyote!"
"A Coyote! Ahhhhh ooooooooooo! Ahhhhhhh ooooooo!" howled the intruder, clad in a camo jacket, "Miller Saves But Jesus Scores on the Rebound From Center Point Through a Screen" t-shirt and filthy black knit cap.
"Tell them, Harrington. Tell them how wrong it is! Miiiiikkeeeee!"
"Ryan Vinz will suit up! Watch him. Someone watch him. Watch his equipment. It'll be in his office! Battista will tell him. Battista!"
"Ahhhhh oooooooo!"
As Mike and Nacho, security thugs, closed in, the bedraggled man got in as much as he could.
"And there'll be a sweater with blue on the front and gold on the backkkkkkkkk" he shouted as batons and fists came raining down on him.
"Worlds will collide! Worlds will collide! Nolan, LaFontaine, they're all in on it!"
"Pegula's the devil. There will be a trial! There will be a..." His words would become muffled as they tried to make his face a permanent part of the cold, hard concourse floor.
Hauntingly, one more sentence escaped into the air. "They're going to murder the Buffalo Sabres. Ahhh ooooo!"
With that, the poor bastard was choked out and dragged unconscious onto Perry St., never to be seen again.
"Gee whiz, seems one of my fellow Keystone Staters dropped in to say hi," said Pegula to laughs and a standing ovation.
Furiously taking notes, Harrington did not stand.

I'm looking forward to purging my ignore list after last place is decided.
Screw you .

Down by 1 with under a minute left, the Sabres pull Hackett and score. On the faceoff, Matt Ellis pressures the Coyotes' D-man, who then falls, creating a 2-on-1 with Ellis and Hodgson. Cody goes top shelf for the shocking, come-from-behind regulation win.
:w00t:
The details... haunting.
-
I imagine the Beauts will lead the league in scoring, the Pride in PIM, the Riveters in blocked shots and the Whale in, uh, fat jokes.
-
FWIW, I'm given to understand that "beaut" is a term that is used without regard to gender in the hockey world.
"You see that sick saucer pass that Gordo sent me? Guy's a real beaut."
Never thought of that. A double-entendre then.
-
Which would be fine, but he also seems to be earnestly angsty about it most of the time.
Oh, I guess I can't lie, then :P
I yearn for your avatar.
-
Why? Because of a grrl thang?
A grrl I know does not love the name either. But as an Islanders fan she hates the Riveters' colors, initials and logo — all borrowed heavily from the Rangers — so she might by default have to be a Beaut fan.
The Beaut logo is a subtle, more abstract buffalo than we're used to seeing. I kind of like it.
Why does the Pride logo feature Hershey skid marks?

RC Cola is still perty tasty.

Again, it's the marshmallow experiment.
It's getting pretty heated for tonight.
How come they're not making S'mores in Edmonton?
-
You're way too young to be this big of a curmudgeon.
The c-word! Yeah! Yeah! Get 'im!!!!!

Oh, boy, Eleven just jumped up from his bunk, put on his turnout gear and slid down the fire pole. Station 51, KMG-365!
-
Yep, we're here. Now let's take care of the business at hand and be done with it.
Done with it? Yeah, until we wake up for many years drenched in sweat, little devil faces coming toward us, then retreating, coming back, feeling like fire ants are on our ballsacks. A price has to be paid for this, even if it's living with, "You tanked for McDavid. Nice Cup, douchenozzles." That is, the same treatment most of us give the Pens.
-
I suspect the team already reflects the city. Where the only way to succeed is to win the lottery.
Eleven is going to come down on you like a ton of bricks! Ohhhhh, you're in such trouble.

Balls O'Hard? Another Irish curse?

This is all Terry Pegula had to say when addressing Koelmel in a fairly far-ranging interview with Carruci:
On John Koelmel leaving HarborCenter: “John has moved on. He did a great job at getting the HarborCenter thing going.”
Whatever, I guess. It just doesn't sound like a truly amicable parting.
See, reading-into is fun, innit?
*This* close to a confession! Maybe HBO can mic Terry up and hope he takes a confessional leak.
• On Kim Pegula’s role – “If you divide it between the actual sports side and the business side, she’s working closely with (Sabres President) Ted Black and Russ Brandon on the business side, and I haven’t been as involved on that side of it. That’s what she likes to do; she’s good at it. So I actually stay over on the sports side, the actual makeup of the teams and working with how we’re going to build the team, the coaching staff. I talk to Doug every day.”

Very good discussion so far.

Maybe a little capital of good will has been spent, but it hasn't been that bad. All will be forgotten soon enough.
