Who will be pulled off the ice before warmups tonight ? Will this be Ted Nolans last game as coach of the Sabres ! Going for 4 straight. I'd love to see it but the tank suffers so...I'm torn. As always, GO SABRES !

Its amazing how many of those hail mary saves he made reaching across. Damn we're going to miss his play. Hope we find another like him.

Now that was a slow one but in case anyone never noticed there's a budding romance happening between redneck Darrell and sweet as punch dead farmers daughter. Maggies gonna be pissed. As will Carol.

Love Millers mask. He'll likely not get it painted just to add to the consternation of the Blues brass about losing him as a UFA at years end.

coyotes are really buzzing

Nice. I likey.

Can't miss game.

I just read the transcript of the presser. I'm ok with the official explanation. They bungled the perception of this whole thing but apparently they were all surprised by Pats decision. Everyones moving forward. Tim Murray has his vision and a plan moving forward and I'm on board with that. I trust this guy. He seems confident in his vision and so far has been a straight shooter with his honesty and availability to the media. I think Pat has his reasons which we may never know and I'm ok with that too. Its his life. People need to relax, sit back and enjoy the ride. Nobody made any promises that it wouldn't be a bumpy ride. The future looks bright. GO SABRES !

Also there's word that the wild may have been in on the Miller thing but it became too rich for them. Halak or someone else could be the fallback plan ?

Tegan and sarah give me more reason to turn down the sound and watch the game out of the corner of my eye as I play on the computer. WTF. This is karaoke in a stadium setting. Where's ac/dc ?

You're right. This smells like a shitthouse door on a tunaboat.

I'm thinking they soaked the fans for those jerseys considering the number that are in the stands. It would have to hang on a wall though cause there's no way in hell I'd wear that in public. It would look ok hanging over the bar. It looks like its going to be a shootout.

Do the Sabres have some computer geek in horn rimmed glasses sitting in a van out front screwing up this video feed ?

That don't sound good. I'm thinking they're already looking for an out and aren't beyond letting TN be the architect of his own demise.

that stream is unwatchable. At least for me. I'll wait for the synopsis from you'ze guys

If his name was David Brewski I'd claim him

I hope so.

And the IOC is talking about stripping Latvia of their ranking for having 2 players test positive. Not a good sign for their hockey program nor for Teds coaching opportunities.

Watched Nolans presser and no question he's emotional and alludes to something big that happened. We all know something happened obviously but the way he states it almost sounds like someone close was diagnosed with a bad illness ( an analogy ) whether thats because his good friend resigned or just the circumstances surrounding it that rattled him, who knows. Methinks he's rethinking his desire to be employed with people that would operate in this manner. On a side note can't they employ somebody to operate a boom mike so we can hear the damn questions being asked ?

:)

Dreger on TSN is saying that his inside sources have said that there's no power struggle. Nothing wrong, move along. Basically its much ado over nothing.

I think he's simply lamenting the widespread loss of veterans that he foresees with the trade deadline. He loves him some vets.

It sounds like he's describing PLFs position when he explains his job responsibilities. We very well may have the culprit. I agree with previous posts that this might have been a pissing contest between Battista and PLF. Who knows ?

You want to watch vanilla tune into the Canucks/Ottawa today in a domed stadium. Not sure how that'll translate as an outdoor game but they can open the dome partially for the weather affect and it has been snowing some on the best coast this past couple of days so there's that. The spin is heritage classic but these games have been over saturated this season. Won't watch. As a side note Torts is apparently playing Eddie Lack in place of Luongo who's feeling left out.

What exactly is Battistas job title ?
