  1. Can they decline a penalty next time? Brutal power play!
  2. Pairing Cozens with Quinn and Peterka (especially Quinn, who is a sniper), seems to have had a synergistic effect. These guys are assertive; there doesn't seem to be any hesitation when it comes to taking the shot, unlike a guy like Krebs, who looks to pass rather than put the puck on net.
  3. That Cozens to Quinn jailbreak goal was really pretty!
  4. This is kind of like the Bills win in Detroit last week; yes they won, but it was at the last minute, after blowing a three score lead.
  5. I pulled a neck muscle watching that move by Quinn!
  6. Get that Mitts, VO line off the ice!
  7. What is it, a dozen years on now from the last playoffs appearance? Kind of depressing, the thought that they are 3-4 pieces away from being a legit playoff team.
  8. "artificial"? A currency "printed" out of thin air, backed by nothing except a promise to pay (debt); that debt currently at about $30 trillion ($90 trillion including contingent liabilities), continually growing and mathematically impossible to ever pay back through economic growth? Now, that is the epitome of artificial.
  9. Razor with the dumbest comment so far:" the ruble isn't worth anything." 59.2 rubles per dollar today, pretty much the same exchange rate as five years ago. https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=USD&to=RUB&view=5Y

  11. Really impressed with Seth Appert with media after first rookies practice,...very articulate. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/video/seth-appert-91422/t-277437090/c-12750648
  12. Domestically, the BBC has told those facing a long winter in which they will not be able to afford to heat their homes that their suffering is “insignificant” compared to that of the family of a 96-year-old woman who died peacefully in the lap of luxury.
  13. Just win baby!
  14. "His Corsi-percentage in the last five games: 37.2, 63.7, 39.5, 44.9, and last night’s 40.1 beer fart". Love it!
  15. Tremendous player! I remember the Knox's and Sabres honored him at the Aud when he was with the Nordiques, I believe. It was one more reason to feel proud I was a Sabres fan.
  16. It's a warship with transverse bulkheads and watertight doors. Assuming it's one breach, and those doors are closed, the flooding should be confined to one compartment. Obviously they were open.
  17. Been a Buffalo hockey fan since the late 60's, when Shorty Lalonde drove the Zamboni, and sharpened the skates, and "Phil Soisson" was the voice of the Bisons on WGR. Living out of state for decades, and not seeing many games, you guys and gals have become my connection to Buffalo hockey, and I very much appreciate it. Coming here is the closest thing to reading either Charlie Barton in the Courier, or Dick Johnston in the BEN, on the merits of a game. That being said, and with a general appreciation for everyone's input, these are my top five favorite posters, for the insights they provide: "LGR4GM", "Randall Flagg", "dudacek", "darksabre", "Eleven". Does anyone have favorites?
  18. I guess your right: I was in a manner sequestering getting to loose pucks and winning board battles from talent; an oversight on my part.
  19. J.T. Compher's younger sister, Jesse, getting it done for the U.S., with goal against Switzerland, on a pretty one-timer.. She scored against Russia, as well.
  20. The biggest thing (that I noticed) in the US women's win over Russia was that the Americans were the first to get to loose pucks, and also winning board battles, in almost every instance. Could these two simple aspects transfer to the NHL, and Sabres, vis~a~vis the win/loss column, irrespective of talent level?
  21. US Women's team dominating zone play early in the first period against Russians.
