Eleven

This is the only reason I care about that harmless franchise.

I don't know whether you had problems reading the tweet, or whatever, but they are "butt guardians."

"It’s hard to solely pin Thursday’s loss on Samsanov — he did stop 26 shots" WOW. TWENTY-SIX?! Gotta be a new record.

This may be the worst video ever made. The first 9:12 is setup, and it's only a 16 minute long clip. The payoff for the setup is insufficient. And the narrator sounds like prepubescent Anthony Michael Hall. It is, however, factual.

First thing I thought. That can't be natural.

Samsonov?

Ah, thank you.

What is he trying to signify there?

Again, no new teams get to win it before the Sabres do. Geez, you people...

Gotta mentally separate "physical play" from hitting. Vanek played a physical game, but he TOOK hits and stood in front of the net. So do guys who bang in the corners. Laying out a guy a millisecond after he dishes the puck to his teammate does send a message, and sometimes a warranted one, but it also often takes the hitter out of the play. Again--this is something the Sabres have known for a long time; they may even have been early adopters.

Pfft it's not even the real London.

The Sabres knew this more than a decade ago.

He is the second-highest American scorer ever. Not forward, not defenseman, just player, ever. Yeah he belongs.

No, I want Botterill back in hockey again. Preferably in Boston.

That's all I've got.

This is the way.

Yeah, but I just meant for scores in the bracket thing.

For me, the onions overpower the mushrooms and I'd rather taste the mushrooms. But I do like one with onions once in a while, too.

We should work together next year and see if we can get 0.

I am mathematically eliminated with only 58 total possible points. I had a COL-NYR final, so, yeah, about that... There are a lot of people with 340+ possible points. The second round should give us some separation.

I feel like this is a repeat post.

Omigosh the Bruins are being roasted by a candy.

Oh no. What did he do now?

Not for the league's lack of trying, either.

Killjoy.
