North Buffalo

Hence the name, what you gonna do in the dark.

I have!

lol depends on the day ?, also 40 percent Dutch Norweigan... some Polish and a touch Italian and Welsh for good measure basically a Euro mutt.

Screw getting old I am Pan... still playing hockey at 54, hiking, biking, skiing, canoeing, camping and white water rafting... not caving though anymore lost touch with that crowd...and I no longer sleep on rocks.

So I have finally hit all the lower 48 with my kids... Alaska and Hawaii still left but really interested in exploring Europe after that especially Croatia... I was adopted and discovered I am about 20% Croate

From Tampa

Sobotka is not an anchor but nothing skating wise to write home about. He plays positionally well and shows moments of a little more. I think he has St Louis’ system in his head. May take awhile to see him be more. Ill take it that he isnt a defensive liability unlike last year’s Sabres.

Im fine if the Sabres win dont care how... respect will come if you build it... Yeh he has sat a few games wondering if its a shoulder or ribs. Not that nasty self he started out the season.

Our Lord a Savior gets his first hat trick including game winner on a break away, Vaseleski still looking for forgiveness.

Trying to get Reino going or Pommer running outta gas?

I am intrigued by the idea of TT sitting while making room in the A for him... ps. Fedun was just traded.., but may need one more spot open... the other possibility is that they are coaching him up in practice, but have told him to quit doing that stupid toe and drag move that everyone knows is coming but he still does in games and gets burned. Could be a nervous habit.. but I'll bet that until he quits doing it he is going to sit multiple games; 1 for each time he does it and another if the puck ends up in the back of the net. Gotta break him of that idea.. tough way to learn...

Caught the highlights after checking the score, but Bills are unwatchable... even with Barkley doing what he did against a Jest team that was laying down...

The more I read this thread, the more I think about the ROR situation. ROR to me was one of the those hypercritical people that you really couldn't argue with because he worked so hard... still he wasn't fun to be around and had no joy. It's hard to be around someone with those expectation and it just becomes a grind with everyone gritting their teeth. Jack and Sam seem like guys who want to have fun playing hockey... Skinner fits that bill for Jack and Pommer is an even keel that enjoys just playing. Sam is playing with now with Sheery who just works hard and keeps his mouth shut, but I think he is just a rink rat and adding Erod to that line who seems like a positive guy is a good thing for Sam... Sobtka is another no nonsense kind of guy and he and Erod can flip depending on how each line is working. Casey is coming along and the resurgence of KO helps him... Sabres still need to find another goal scorer and possession guy and they may have them in the AHL developing... but at least it looks like these guys are playing faster and have some toughness to their game. Hope it continues.

Because McSlappy needs to come to Jesus and admit Peterman sucks.

Dump Peterman, keep Anderson should Barkley get hurt

Jets really stink... Matt frickin Barkley LOL and Foster off the PS... Oh well probably second to last game Bills win this year... next v Jests

Jack got goosed... A rasmi sandwich

Specifically on talent two adds to top 6 Skinner and Sheary.. two good wingers and bottom 6 Berglund defensively is a horse and Sobotka defensively and underrated offensively. That is 4 adds one loss, Dhalin gives Sabres decent top four that are improving plus agreed on goaltending. Sabres still not deep on D but deeper than last year. Those 6 pieces plus healthy OK, and development of Mitts is a big change and now Phil Housley development of coach has been a big step in right direction.

That a devious smile, love it

That second period really scared me when they went into their shell late. Third period was much better Casey sick mitts designated shootout guru wow!

Agreed, though he is not a scorer... good forechecker and mucker rat and decent passer. But has not much of a shot.

Or family guy in honor of Modoand the luck he brings... PS Modo is Peter..

Come January we will need all our spiritual gurus to get a good aura going for Skinner in every religion.. that includes you NS

Tage needs to sit and eat... Keep gaining weight. 3-5lbs a week. Actually not sure what to think of his usage. As long as he is practicing with the team, getting in a few games and learning how to play the way he needs to guess its ok but yes playing more would be ideal.

I think so especially with Sobotka. Guy is perfect fot that line. Kid is coming of age.
