How about a public flogging of Coach Bylsma and three players fans can vote on? I have a hunch that wait list will vanish next year.

If, if, if. It wasn't a playoff game or even a playoff push game. They sat Kane for being late to a practice. Bylsma has to be consistent with punishment.

Many already decided it's only worth $10 or less to attend a game.

Meh. They can play the middling and bad teams. They get exposed against elite squads.

I like Alamo mode. :P Not arguing with you. Just saying they have a reasonable excuse to stay the course.

It's really hard for me to say for sure DD is doing the turtle or our guys run out of gas. All I see is people not trying.

Many years ago the Sabres Alumni used to hold a tournament on game days. Best event ever! Eight alumni players drafted whoever signed up and played a round robin on the Sabres ice before a game which you got to watch from the Alumni suite. I remember the feeling of being in the crease in my goalie gear, the same crease Hasek played in, looking up at 18,000+ empty seats in what was HSBC at the time,and feeling awed. Then Danny Gare ripped a wrister past me with no mercy.

Of course Dan is back. If they get 6 of the remaining 12 available points they finish with 82, one more than last year, a.k.a. improvement. Then throw in Jack's injury at the start of the season and you can argue bad luck cost you the playoffs. You would have hated the third.

Sadly the correct call.

Yup, kick.

Yeah. Not to take too much away from our team but the Panthers look uninterested. Reimer was a sieve. Whoops, two games in a row. Rodriguez flubs a goal in our end.

Sometimes I wish the Bills and Sabres would just leave town already, rather than read or listen to the endless pissing and moaning about them.

What exactly does being accountable mean here? Publicly accepting blame for failing to reach the playoffs? That will placate people for a day. Fire everyone and start over? Put Bucky and Sully in charge of the Bills and Sabres?

Bucky's P1's (a broadcasting reference to those who are your most ardent audience) are miserable people.

Nice gift on Terry's birthday, Bucky. All class.

Agree on Bulldog but I've noticed something interesting about him. He has a Zelig quality (see Wikipedia) about him in that he changes depending who his co-host is. He is a different, much better host with Sal or Brad Riter. Schopp dominanates Bulldog, forcing him to essentially be his hype man, going along with whatever narcissistic, pseudo-intellectual jag he's on. Bulldog is at his worst when he has one of contrived aneurysms on air. P.S. I know. It's reigning, not raining.

Can you blame STHers who've had to sell games for $9 or less try to make a little back off Loafs fans? Half that, more likely. And probably only a few.

What was McCabe thinking?

No matter how we're doing, smacking down the Loafs is a great time.

And Eichel replies.

...that he recommended to the Pegulas. Oh the horror. <_< See you opening day.

Jerry Sullivan and Bucky Gleason are the reigning kings of d-baggery in Buffalo media. You're right he isn't that good. Surprised he's climbed the ladder so high despite that fact. But Buffalo is a place where inertia is rewarded. See: Schopp & Bulldog.
