North Buffalo

Also missed Mike Ramsey, Stu Barnes, Rivet couple others.

Crap we are against each other... might need to wait a week, consider Yeldon or AP for Green or Kupp...

Hank which team? I have running backs

Not now, after Allstar game sure... but now... meh who cares unless new influx is horrible to watch.

Next year’s draft I am hardly paying attention to... so grateful...

Speed has vastly improved. D could use a guy or two with more and still have hockey sense. Ghule has speed but seems to lack vision. Wonder if he could play wing. Additions of Tage, Mitts, Skinner, Sheary and Dhalin are a big step forward. Beaulieu if he could ever cut out the brain farts... seemed better in preseason set up Sabres with a good start. Nelson is growing on me especially as a 5-6 guy. Loss of Bogo not seeing as big a deal though Sabres could use another big guy who can skate on back end besides Risto. It will be interesting. Hoping one of the goslies can develop into a shutdown guy and Hutton seems like an big upgrade till then.

Larrson ?

Skinner but at this point im probably gonna stay put. PS there are D out the look at player available and the scoring system. Hits, blocks etc

Hmm maybe

done

Darn farm analogies... gotta mate the bovine before she becomes a cow, till then she is just a heffer...

Despite Pi’s statement about a team coming together and generally I agree, practice helps gell a team... as others have said, this is a young team and I dont think you want to drill the fun out of a team... dont have a problem necessarily with a day off though the timing is a little off. Part of it is the late cuts imo wanting only those who will be on the big club and the guys have been worked hard since the start of camp. Could be Housley read the tea leaves and realized they needed a break. We will see how they start out....

Pi is pain in how wed he is to his convictions... but he’s Pi so you take his absolutism like you would a football coach.... every once in a while he needs to be told to f off... His hockey sense is usually spot on.

Sleep deprived knew it was one of them may have to reval my team once I get some ?

Gold draft was fun now on to Blue tonite

Plus sulpher springs baths are only 30 miles away!

Recovering from two knee bruise/sprains... lower patella tendons only hurts at one point... problem is just as my knee bend is at the point of pushing of in first two strides. My OR nurse wife told me to lay off just as I accelerating my workouts and as fall hockey has begun plus I am playing more D lately... Not happy.. first time my knees have ever bothered me... waah?

Not sure where you are at but Bershire East is a smaller quaint but good sized hill in Northen Mass that is reasonable and in its own little snow belt just south of the Vermont border, about 20 miles East of Williamstown MA. I ski Jimney Peak a lot and will probably go to Hunter this year. Want to try out Strattford... only 90 miles from my House in Amherst MA if snow is good. Last year snow came in late. Over xmas we skied Sundance in Utah, Steamboat and El Doro. All very different and very nice, though Steamboat is for medical Dr. snobs and their spoiled kids..

You know when you are coming in high on a guy, intentional or not it is likely to result in a slobberknocker of a hit because the other guy is unaware of you or not expecting it. Now if Wilson dropped his shoulder lower... I’d say clean hit, bit him keeping high to me is the damning evidence, to me that screams cheap shot and he knew exactly what he was doing. PS, I’ve made similar hits but always aimed my shoulder for the rib cage. No interesting in hitting someone’s head.

I have no fin clue but agree Mitts takes half the season to hit his stride and I think the Sabres hit 82 points... As far as the rest.

Derrico no clarification... so much for Sabrespace prowess?

Gotta put it on my bucket list Wow!

Where?

Absolutely thinking we might rent a Winnebago and go from there too.

Trip across Canada likely will be our next trip Banff and Vancover area Im dying to see.
