Sabres app is no more. Replaced by onebuffalo app that is designed for iPhone but not iPad (forced portrait vs. landscape). I enjoyed reading and viewing Sabres app better on iPad. None of this minor nuisance compares to any of your complaints I’ve read above.

When Hyman returns in November, they will be $2.25 over the cap. They now have to do something before that...bottom line is that I hope they choke in the playoffs again this year. Boston always seems to take care of business, but Tampa better be there as a back-up this time if needed. Another first round exit might be the end for Babcock. I can only hope. I wish it was the Sabres that would be their kryptonite but reality is that I hope we get in as a wild card at best.

It’s really weird. I watched both the first two games at home in Niagara Falls on my wifi, but on the road today in St. Catharines it’s blacked out on LTE or a wifi hotspot.

Yes, thanks!

Mini-packs went on sale today. Lots of good seats were available on the seat map in the 100 level shoot twice sections even though existing mp holders didn’t get an exclusive window this year. Got my six pack on mostly Saturdays including the home opener this year. Cant wait to see how the team will gel early in the year, seeing 4 of my games in the first 7 weeks! Also nice to see the Bills dominance tonight.

#90 back in the Sabres lineup! Only $30 to change the nameplate at Sabres store! I’ve gone from Vanek to Moulson to Dahlin. Hopefully no more changes for at least a decade!

Last year: 16 2017-18: 19 2016-17: 15 2015-16: 19 2014-15: 19 2013-14: 13 So, lowest number of back-to-backs since Cody Hodgson led the team in scoring with 44 points, Nolan was fired in favour of Roulston, and Regier was fired in favor of Murray. Hopefully it’s not a sign of things to come!

I was wondering if everyone else was as frustrated as I was after that game...no doubt about it. Apart from the 10 game mirage, this team looks so much slower and less determined than it was in November. It’s like they’ve lost their confidence, and can’t get it back. Watching the playoffs slowly slip away is more difficult to deal with as a Buffalo fan, but this is such a close league, and we were probably overachieving when we were streaking. Now, the tough times are showing that this team isn’t quite ready for prime time yet. We are where we would have liked to be in the beginning, but dialing back the expectations and possibly wasting this opportunity after tasting the feeling of being at the top is a very difficult ask for Buffalo fans.

On the bright side, the Bruins lost tonight as well, and the Habs put Carey Price on IR today. If we win Saturday, it could be five points up on the Bruins and six on the Habs if they fall in Florida tomorrow. Hopefully tonight was a wake up call and they get their north game going next time.

Face-offs will be interesting to watch when Jack and ROR meet up tonight. Wonder if either of these two have any new tricks up their sleeve? Despite a bad start, the Blues are 5-3 in their last eight and beat the Pacific leading Flames in Calgary in their last game. Hope the Sabres aren’t looking past this game with the key Bruins match-up next.

Fantastic

I wonder if no one picks him up on waivers, and there is no trade that makes sense, would they bury him with Matt Moulson on the Ontario Reign? I guess they would have to want him...however we can get rid of his cap hit, get it done.

Quite often, the biggest factor in this game is Roberto Luongo. I hope he isn’t tonight.

In case you ever wondered what the offside cam looks like, I snapped this picture tonight. Looks like the cardiac kids are back at it! Thanks to LA D for falling apart to help our cause

I was there as well and remember how distinct the Sabres support was compared to Leafs fans, and compared to regular season games. Felt like 80/20 to me.

For sure. To add to this, how many others dropped their season tickets at the end of last year? Looks like a lot based on the early season mid-week games averaging just over 15,000. That’s 4K worth of tickets up for grabs. I was at the Calgary game and there were tons of empty seats everywhere

The good: we gained ground on the Bruins in the race for the playoffs The bad: Auston Matthews, the Leafs and their hated fans Playoffs>emotions

9 of the next 13 at home. After tomorrow maybe it’ll be back to scary good again. Tomorrow is almost an unfair set-up. Maybe they will be more determined than tired, but it’s a pretty tough ask. The crowd should ensure the boys are at least motivated. Hope Sheary and Pommers get back in. Fresh legs will help

Sportsnet One (SN1) just added this game to their lineup tonight, so it will be on nationwide in Canada for those without NHL-CI.

Just watched the replay of the end of the game. It was so awesome to see Sam jumping up and down with excitement on the bench as the winning goal was scored. I have never seen him that ecstatic before, even when he’s on the ice for a goal. Was great to see, he usually has ice in his veins. I was doing the same after jumping out of my seat!

All of the next 5 games after the Tampa game are on one of the Sportsnet channels (except the Leafs game which is on TSN4). Talk about good timing for those here without NHLCI. Glad people got to watch the MSG feed tonight too.
