  1. LOL! In some future poll many years from now, they will suffer the same outrage at the lack of respect for Dom by youngins that never saw him play. GO SABRES!!!
  2. I laughed. Nicely done. GO SABRES!!!
  3. Absolutely! If he had a signature phrase, it was when an errant puck went over the glass and it was always, "And there's a souvenir for a lucky fan from the Sloan Kiwanis Club!", or some other civic group. That said, my vote goes to Bert (or doesn't go to Bert for the poll purposes). And while my nostalgic bias may be playing a role in that decision and Hasek may have been a better player at his position, Perreault hoisted this franchise on his shoulders from its inception and kept it there. And to this very day, there has NEVER been another player that induces that butterfly in the gut feeling EVERY TIME they wind up with the puck behind their own net to start a rush. When I think of what it may have been like if we lost that spin of the wheel, I shudder. It literally would have been a COMPLETELY different franchise. And not for the better, I think. GO BILLS!!!
  4. This reminds me of perhaps the funniest thing a fan ever yelled towards the Sabre's bench. It was vs. the Jets on 11/26, in the middle of a snooze fest that we eventually lost 2-1 and before we started our roll. He had been ragging on the Sabres the entire game. In the third period he yells in his best Maximus gladiator voice yells: "Are we not entertained?!!!" And then answers himself: "NO!!!!" GO SABRES!!!
  5. Best PR this picture ever received. You can't buy this kind of media interest. I predict this movie will do great at the box office. People will line up to see it out of a sense of patriotic duty at this point. Masterful.
  6. Torture evil, Cuba not bad.
  7. Long overdue.
  8. Is it OK to say trading Risto is taking the short bus to good ideas? GO SABRES!!!
  9. God bless, GoDD. That was extremely funny stuff. Perhaps a record for ballbusting around here. GO SABRES!!!
  10. I didn't bother. Between the subject content, the Wall Street Journal link, and the views of the poster that linked it, I didn't think it was necessary.
  11. Well then, by all means, that makes it right. Where's the poll that surveys how we feel about the outsourcing of these tactics to private companies? How do we feel about detainees for profit? Torture for profit?
  12. Agreed. I don't care if he's a leader or not. That's a nice to have. I'd be more concerned if his non-conformity meant that he doesn't buy into lockerrom leadership he doesn't necessarily agree with. Does he buck against the culture moving forward? That kind of thing. Because I think we've got some high-character players, including a couple young ones, that know the value of that kind of buy-in. In other words how does he take it when, in the lockerroom immediately after a tough loss, one of our current team leaders rips the earbuds out of his head and stomps on his I-Pod, because he's not taking the loss to heart enough. It's one thing to be asked to be accountable, quite another when forced. Especially when you've never had to before. GO SABRES!!!
  13. I see that Stewart and Mitchell are commutative. I wouldn't have guessed that before you broke it down scientifically with irrefutable mathematical proof. Well done. GO BILLS!!!
  14. Cool math. Can you do the equation for Mitchell + injury? Thanks. GO SABRES!!!
  15. So, Grigorenko called up. Did anyone answer? GO SABRES!!!
  16. I've already accepted this or a 1st round exit will happen. I love rooting for a team full of players with heart, but I'm not confusing heart with talent and the consistent cup contention that only talent brings. GO SABRES!!!
  17. I can understand wanting the team stocked with vets. But is there an expectation by ticket holders that the Sabres aren't trying to develop their better young talent and that they'll stay in Rochester? That sounds like a recipe for disappointment. GO SABRES!!!
  18. Not for nothing, but isn't that what the Amerks team is? GO SABRES!!!
  19. The few games I've been at this year, I sat right next to the bench, 3 rows up. Trottier is always the most vocal coach of the bunch. He has a particularly nice touch with players who screw the pooch. Especially the young ones. He's constantly communicating to the players. Very Biron-like at times with all his chatter. GO BILLS!!!
  20. Heck, I'm thinkin' of a girl right this minute. But somehow those stockings, garters, and heels were replaced by Sabre pants and long johns. Right in mid-fantasy, too! PA is right, this team is in the very core of my psyche. And I thought it was way too crowded in there already. GO SABRES!!!
  21. So who's manning the turret? Weber was my #1 tank commander. Thought I saw him handing out chevrons to Meszaros once. It's gotta be Anrej. GO BILLS!!!
  22. Stone hands to be sure. But that's not his job. He's one of those invaluable glue guys who will get the most of his limited minutes and more often than not be an absolute pain in the ass to play against while he's out there. So in my mind, he's better for us in the role he was acquired for than McNabb was when he was here. If that makes any sense. GO SABRES!!!
  23. Agreed. I think Deslaurier for McNabb straight up has been worth it. Fasching is gravy and he has way more potential than either. GO SABRES!!!
  24. Coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo! Coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo-coo! Welcome to the great white North!
