  1. The suggestion here is players are looking to shift blame by looking at the iPads. But if Lindy is blaming players for something without checking to see if he's right then maybe the players have a point?
  2. No more composite sticks. Back to wood!
  3. Now. But for how long did people discount his abilities because they were so invested in his draft narrative?
  4. Certain people are going to have a hard time letting go of the "Sabres Suck" narrative. Same kind of people ragging on Josh Allen even while he's tearing up the NFL.
  5. Sure. But what matters is where things are heading. The Bills playoff drought felt like it would never end. Now look at them. Do you hear anyone taking about it anymore?
  6. My sarcasm detector is working perfectly.
  7. Stick a fork in them.
  8. Can you tell the difference between a team that's uninspired and a team being stuffed in their own end?
  9. Still many seats left for Fan Appreciation night vs Chicago. It would be nice to get one more full house. I plan to be there.
  10. Sabres have climbed to 23rd place (10th pick) one point from 22nd.
  11. Tokarski grew tree roots. No lateral movement.
  12. The Sabres have become a dangerous team.
  13. Slow to respond. Thought he got bumped but replay doesn't show that.
  14. If you sell the team you run the risk of the team leaving.
  15. I actually doubt the Sabres will ever get back to full capacity on a regular basis. And it has less to do with the last ten years. I think the market, in general, doesn't want to spend money on sports anymore. Tickets are expensive. Concessions are expensive. And people here have stopped caring enough to empty their wallets. Even for the Bills. We are the best team in the NFL and we didn't sell out every game. This idea will go over like a lead balloon. But if I owned the Sabres, instead of pouring money into KBC, I would consider building a brand new arena in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Closer to fans that value hockey more, but close enough for Buffalo area fans to get to games. Any evidence of that other than a tweet?
  16. I became a fan of the old AHL "Pepsi cap" Bisons in 1968. Got to go to a few games in 1969, their final year when they went out as Calder Cup champs. Guy Trottier set the AHL goal scoring record with 55. Giles Villemure was the goalie with 8 shutouts. Terry Crisp, who is now a Preds color analyst, was on that team. Fred Shero was the coach. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/leagues/seasons/teams/0002311970.html
  17. Impossible to do in most of Fenway. And any seat with upgraded room is priced accordingly. I do have a hack when I go to Sox games. I go on StubHub an hour before games and write down what decent seats are still for sale. Then I buy the cheapest ticket I can find. Once I'm in the park, I walk around and see which of those StubHub seats are still empty and swoop in. Works about 75% of the time.
  18. I don't believe Anderson will come back. I think he will retire and he will announce such at the end of the season so KA can get to work immediately finding his replacement.
  19. Really depends. They use dynamic pricing. So a mid-week game against the Angels you can get standing room for $11 or bleacher seating for $16. But if you want to sit between 1st and 3rd bases you are looking at between $100-200. A weekend Yankees game? You can't set foot in the park for less that $100. Keep in mind in 1912 when Fenway was built, people must have been on average 4ft tall. If you are taller than 6ft (as I am) you cannot even get your legs in grandstand seat. I have to either stand or sit in a roomier box seat.
