One thing for sure, anyplace close to Key Bank Center will be a zoo tonight.

Closer than Bada Bing. Gene McCarthy and Carbone's are not exactly walking distance but a short Uber. Swannie House and Washington Square are just a few blocks away. Southern Tier Brewing, formerly 716, is open now. How's the food there? Does John Labbat House have food?

That's on Chippewa, right? Not close to the arena but the Metrorail is free at that station.

Technically the Sabres were in the playoffs hunt until the very least day of the season two years ago. That's when the playoff field was expanded to 24. MTL beat us by a couple thousandth of point %. The season was called off when were in MTL. A win and we would have gotten in.

Places closer to the arena: Washington Square or Swannie House for wings. Gene McCarthy's Tavern for wings, beef on weck and beers. Carbone's Pizzaria for take out pizza. Hydraulic Hearth for fancy eat in pizza. Btw Sabres now saying be seated by 6:30.

ESPN+ shows a 6:30 start time. They have to be showing it.

Anything less would have been a sin. Thanks to Sabres fans for showing up.

He wants to play for an NHL franchise. It's true. Some are massive anuses. 😂

The Amerks are barely in a playoff spot. Just .003% lead over Belleville. But only .001% behind 4th place Syracuse, .020% behind 3rd place Toronto and .032% behind 2nd place Laval. https://theahl.com/22playoffprimer

Twitter Saturday morning: "WTF! Nobody told me the RJ ceremony was BEFORE the game."

I figured I'd start a catch-all thread for Craig and Petey's podcast. Ep. #76: Carlo Colaiacovo talks about how Tim Murray and Disco Dan Bylsma royally jerked him around. Unreal. Also Carlo: "They gave the C to Jack too early."

No one predicted the rise of TNT.

8 box office seats left, 17 resale left. Dare I say it? We have a SELLOUT!!

Just finished listening. How cool is it Donnie just drops in? Have you ever heard a head coach be that loosey-goosey with the media? No wonder the Sabres locker room is so great now. DG is the embodiment of chill.

LAST CALL: One FREE ticket to tonight's game. Come and git' it.

Roenick reveals what a dirtbag he is. Basically admits he was watching football scores on the arena scoreboard during a game while playing for the Flyers because of bets he made. Bobby Clarke had to call him out on it. Roenick really has a bug up his rear for "liberals."

I'd be there but the wife had to schedule a trip to the in-laws that weekend.

Anyone want one free ticket to tonight's game, 7 rows off the ice, PM me.

I estimate there are under 500 seats left for the game. Most of those in clubs. https://www.ticketmaster.com/buffalo-sabres-vs-nashville-predators-buffalo-new-york-04-01-2022/event/00005AEFA8FF489B

Anyone hear about Hayden lately? They left him in Vancouver when he tested COVID positive. Is he hitchhiking back?

The biggest difference I'm seeing now is defense in our end. We don't get bottled up, turning the puck over as much. Our breakouts are much better.

Need 24 points over the next 15 games to reach 82 and a .500 point%. That's an .800 pace. Our preseason over/under on points was 68. I definitely think we beat that. Last year The Sabres earned 37 points in 56 games, a .330 pt%. That would be 54 points in an 82 game schedule.

We are two Washington wins away from elimination. Far enough. Why not grab a Megabus?

There could be ... Nothing. Ever since Andrew Peters got the scoop on the Eichel trade, because he knows the Tuch family, he's been getting carried away with his insider takes. He's constantly saying he's hearing this or that on his podcast, and nothing comes of it.
