  1. I also preferred a fuzzier Keith Radford.
  2. I think teams getting a little sugar rush after a trade is real. It could be reason enough to make a move, as the Sabres are right on the edge.
  3. Hence the lol. I've been there once. It was impressive even in what was IMMSMC a down season.
  4. Excuse me? They don't have fans. Lol.
  5. Cleveland 117 San Antonio 109 Also 67 202 7
  6. BTW look at the journalism there for kind of a throwaway, fluffy story. Facts with a touch of style.
  7. They're in the shop.
  8. I think we're doing the same thing. Except I'm hanging on the back of a City of Lackawanna garbage truck with one leg stuck out for balance.
  9. I think it's fair to say that the success of the Buffalo Sabres was not guaranteed in those early days. Punch near-miraculously got them to elite status in five years, and that was huge. But even in a good hockey town that had had the AHL Bisons, creating affinity for an expansion team was no small feat. H/t to Ted, Paul and Chuck Burris (TIL Paul was not the director at first) and others including Rick* of course. Dave Forman got the Aud roof raised. The rest is history. *Not sure how to estimate Rick's value in promoting the team in the very early days. He would have called only a few games his first season.
  10. This is quite the battle of wits.
  11. Interesting choice of words. Bandwagon to me is a pejorative term. You jump on one and you jump off. Anyway, enjoy. Don't forget to toot your own horn.
  12. Started at the end. Scrolled up until I saw DG. Will show myself out. But not before I do my best Lindy: joooooke.
  13. Words are tricky. "Dramatic" change from, say, this time three years ago? I don't feel it (probably because I don't yet buy into another word from your post: "turnaround.") On this date in 2020 Ralph's Sabres had just beaten the Leafs 5-2 at home for a third win in four games. They were 27-24-8 and 10 points out. I'm sure lots of fans were in the "it ain't over" camp. Or the dreaded "This bodes well for the fall." Ralph had those Sabres at 8-1-1, which was highly entertaining. And fool's blue and gold. Honestly, objectively, this franchise is still nowhere. No MISSION ACCOMPLISHED banners, please. But a little perspective on the "awful" RaKru.
  14. Now with more shenanigans!â„¢
  15. Neither will I. I am being used as a portal or vesicle or something. I am over it.
  16. To me it's all about the vantage point. Put me up top. Too low and hockey in person makes as much sense as football.
  17. You will ignore my forecast for the Sharks?
  18. Again! That's three. Obv. this one was a reverse "we want 8" chant. It's gettin' scary.
  19. I love the filter. To be clear Joe is def. not dumb.
  20. 11.765. I dunno about this one. Obv. 11 could be referencing game 2 of the trip. It's anyone's guess. I'm sure it'll make sense later. As it always does.
  21. IOW young and full of *****.
