CallawaySabres

I keep hearing coaches and gm say they want teams to have a tough night when coming to Buffalo. I know they will barely ever win but there is ZERO evidence of teams not imposing their will on us. Non stop odd man rushes against us and no offense for us. When will THAT change?

I have to say, if this season resembles this game at all, it's gonna suck just as bad as last year. I knew they were one of the worst teams but wow, is it freaking boring as hell in that arena. Hodgson and Foligno both suck while Myers had a great game. When this team does get McDavid or Eichel, they are still going to be years away. Are there ANY playmakers on the team/farm? I'm serious, other than my kid getting on the jumbotron a few times, it's torture in there.

I'll be there and am fired up. No way will I be hoping for a loss tonight - no freakin' way. Buffalo sports has me more fired up recently than I have been in many years and I'm not about to pour water on that. Play hard and show improvement as the season goes on, that's all I want. Sunday, at the Ralph, fegit about it...

The Sabres need their own "shout song". Something simple to get the crowd bonded after the goal. I think next year is the year to introduce it...I still can't believe Ooh Ahh Sabres on the Warpath has not ended this debate already. There is NOTHING better in my book.

Honestly, I'll take anyone but Enroth in net and I'll be the first to admit it's because he is so small.

I saw a few games of Lieuwen last year, how has he been progressing since? Definitely love the 6'5 frame as I keep thinking Don Edwards is still playing for us.

Outside of Enroth, I have zero clue as to who is ready to step up when this team is going to have to lock in one of the most important pieces. I am 99% sure that Enroth is not that guy so who will it be? I would love to look to this thread to see who has been playing well and has the most legit shot of stepping into that role. Any insights as to who the Sabres THINK that may be?

Serious question, even when this team is good, I wonder if the crowd will ever get to the level it used to be. It's been a few years and I remember the last playoff series I went to was even brutal.

I still think goaltending will be the weakest link on the team. I hope someone really steps it up by 2015 season.

This team is SO making the playoffs

Drew 1-0

I honestly think the only thing that makes this year better than last is that we hopefully only have one more year of garbage...

Me too and I think a lot of it has to do with the excitement of everything Bills. Hockey seems a million miles away right now....

Bills coming off impressive win in Chitown Jim kelly in pre game ceremony dedication to Ralph Pegula will be new owner The stadium very well might collapse after this epic Sunday opener approaches....Bring It On!!!

The Bills come charging out of the tunnel next week led by Jim Kelly and there isn't a dry eye in the house. the momentum of a road win today springboards the team on a hell of a run. Today is the day for hope, it's all we got right now....

It has to be the draft....no way the Mayor and Colin C are involved if it is the combine - maybe both?

Henderson is back, Dareus brain still missing, as of today.....

Manziel and Lebron...Cleveland just went from total anonymity to the center of the media universe for NFL and NBA

Kane and Toews signed for 8 years....

The Leafs games are the first games I pick every year in my ticket draft. When the Sabres are good, I would not sell them for anything. When they are tough to watch, it's hard to pass up $500 for two tickets (especially when they help pay for the rest of the games).

You CANNOT be upset with Gionta and Gorges signings. Yes, they made the team better, but it was imperative to get the leaders on offense and defense who will mold this supposed future Cup winning team the right way. This team would have been spinning its wheels without them. It now affords the Sabes to bring up young pieces the proper way. Now if you want to argue about Moulson, take a look at what that signing says about Buffalo. A coveted FA who left AND wanted to come back says a lot about the direction of this team. The image of Buffalo is just as important as draft picks because when the time is right, that FA pick-up they will have to make could be the missing piece to the Cup winning team.

Pretty epic night last night with O.A.R. My buddy is good friends with Michael the keyboardist and so we were hanging out with them before the show (even added a song to the set list)! The show rocked, went backstage after show again and ended up driving them to the Brickhouse in Lewiston for some drinks. Most definitely the most memorable birthday of my life and could not have imagined a nicer group of guys. Got some pretty sick pictures and the funniest part was that there were some fans who thought I was actually IN the band asking to take pictures and buy drinks (when the real band was 2 feet away) - HA The fans boyfriend came up to me and was like...she really thinks you are in the band. Anyway, the whole scene was so surreal that it is almost too hard to process. The greatest part is that Michael (the keyboardest ) just gave me his cell and was like next time you guys are around, just call this number and we'll hook you up. Fckin A baby, what a freakin' night......

glad it's spelled that way, now he'll get Girgensons jersey (my son being George)

Woa, Woa, Woa. Moulson was on this team last year so that's a draw, Miller is gone and Ehrhoff is gone. So you are possibly turning the worst team in the league into a playoff question mark by adding leadership in Georges and Ginota. I LOVE the leadership moves but let's not turn this into something it is not. Gionta adds 20 goals maybe and Georges is not as good as the guy that left. The Sabres are going to be A LOT more fun to watch but playoffs.....not a chance.

My God, the Isles are really up shiits creek and I am starting to think that they (We) have a shot at the number 1 pick...
