  1. The only streaming options with MSG are Fubo and DirecTV Stream. Fubo does not have Turner channels, so you'd miss anything on TNT. ESPN+ will have Sabres games if you are out of market, but you will miss out on nationally televised games.
  2. I tend to agree with the poster. It's incessant negativity almost to the point to try and stir the pot. If it's not just done on here and has woven its way into the day to day of the person in question I would be concerned for them as well. It's just not healthy to be that negative. If all of this stuff bothers someone so much they really do need to get away from it and find something that drives positivity and value in life.
  3. Hickey has family in Rochester. I went to school with his cousin who lives here. That means nothing of course, but I felt like providing completely useless information since I have the day off from work. 🙂
  4. Last game on a long trip, always a tough one. Pulling out a dub would be excellent. Although I feel we don't really know what this team is until they play back in the Eastern Conference given the way the East has beaten up on the West so far.
  5. C'mon, you know Seattle is outside the PSE Healthcare network. They can't afford those co-pays.
  6. Good thing that's what he's being used for? Why do you think Schenn would have signed here? To be the 7th or 8th defenseman? Players who think they should be top 6 are not going to join a team where they know they won't be top 6. No No No. That would trigger a marfan conversation and this place would never recover.
  7. It looked like it might be an MCL strain. I did that in both my knees at the same time in a game. Got collapsed on in front of the net and my skates basically went out sideways and my knees went to the ice. I couldn't stand up on my own. Once I was up I was okay in a straight line. Took about 6 weeks before I could really test the knees. I could walk, but man if I tried to twist in any way I knew it immediately. I'm hoping this is the "good news" they are looking at.
  8. Loved the game tonight. The play from the team. But.. there's a certain kind of special when you log into SS after the game and get to relive the emotion by reading the GDT. Well done SS. You did not disappoint.
  9. The fans can go F themselves. That would be my take. If they don't like it, they can talk to the Miami management. It's only a matter of time before something bad happens.
  10. The team will continue to have moments like this. They'll have moments where they are the dominant team and they will look like crap. A young team does that. But it's the little things that come at the right times that give you hope for where this team is going. And that those little things are coming from the right players. The Cozens/Peterka pair is paying off. There's no doubt about that. They are playing a bit more of a high risk game and Edmonton is a counter-attack team. They still have to improve D zone coverage, but a win is a win.
  11. It would be like signing a forward to a huge contract and having them not score in the first two games?
  12. The good news is giraffe's have notoriously long necks so they can fit a few fans in their throat. (Cue inky) Referencing Eichel is going to become the SS equivalent of throwing out Hitler's name on an Internet forum.
  13. But you said the Kings are looking for a scoring forward...
  14. Never coached the swallows as near as I can tell.
  15. I'd request Edmonton, Calgary, and Winnipeg in October as well. Better now than in February. 66% success rate works for me!
  16. Come and take a ride from Mt. Everest to the Mariana Trench in a single game day thread. The state of the Internet all contained right here. The sample size of 2 says the Sabres are .500. I'm going with that.
  17. I knew Boosh's song.. it's a great choice, Skinner is absolutely classic. These songs should be like that in my opinion. But in the end, whatever makes you happy.
  18. Watched only part of the first game from O'Hare. I'll miss today's game watching my son play baseball. The sports gods do not want me viewing Buffalo sports teams right now.
  19. Tonight I played Beer League hockey with my son. One of the more important bucket list items in my life has been checked. Cloud Nine ain't got nothing for me.
  20. I'm not surprised people have an issue with this. But it was always going to be Okposo. Tuch is a flashy new toy. He absolutely embodies many aspects of a leader. He's an absolute symbol of the WNY region (we'll include Baldwinsville here). But Tuch is also young. He's also not been with the team for a long time. None of this is a negative towards him. Tuch will be the out front, emotional leader of this team. He may be the future "C". And that's a good thing. There's a lot of talk about Cozens, and many others. Having a team of leaders is a great problem to have. It's not like having too many chefs in the kitchen. Having a team that holds themselves and each other accountable is how you build a winner. So credit to Okposo who has literally put his health on the line for this team. A person who came in as the highest sought after UFA and then had to deal with the tire fire that was the Sabres. Throughout it all he's been nothing but class off the ice and effort and results on the ice. It's not a step backward... clubs recognize those who built the foundation, players know who built the foundation. This team is just fine and in due time the leadership will pass... good teams have an abundance of leaders, it's a great problem to have.
  21. I went through Safesport training a few years back. In it they discuss how to identify signs of grooming and quite frankly the whole training feels like a guidebook on how to be a sexual predator. Every year I had to do the training it gave me the absolute creeps to even think in those ways. I'm not going to pass judgment on anyone, that's for some other investigative body to do... but just hearing the term "grooming" makes me sick at this point.
  22. Whether they do or not I am not sure. I know it's not part of the testing protocol that I linked.

    Streaming Sabres

    Just to add. Fubo does not have Turner Broadcast networks.. so you won't get anything on TNT. You would however get MSG. Fubo is my option. I have ESPN+ but they apparently do a great job of blocking SurfShark VPN endpoints.. the app straight up will not work on my Firestick when I have the VPN enabled. The only solution where I would get all games would be Spectrum, but they can take their $21/month broadcast surcharge (aka. you pay for local channels) and stick it.
  24. How many 5 second penalties are issued though? It's not that many. Everyone knows they were issued too, so you plan for that during the race. Just like Red Bull assumed Perez was going to get a safety car penalty and managed to get a 7.5 second lead over Leclerc before the end of the race. I understand about the post race penalties and I do agree that F1 should have figured it out while the race was happening. If you want the black flag or even the drive through you are no longer talking about a 5 second penalty. You are now talking about a 20+ second penalty given the pit lane speed limit. In addition, by requiring more pit stops you increase the risk to the pit crews. I think the gravel aspect is interesting but many tracks operate in different configuration for different racing series, so it's not possible to have gravel in ALL corners. The heavy fines won't impact that top tier teams. Taking away points is already something that can happen and effectively does with a 5 second penalty issued after the race. I'm not sure what violation warrants suspension however. I think they probably have something for that if the violation committed was severe enough. Overall I understand where you are coming from. I just don't think, because of the way operates a race, that it's possible to implement some of the items you are suggesting without there being larger impacts, especially when it comes to 5 second penalties.
  25. Last year ESPN+ had all Sabres games that were not nationally televised. You just get blacked out if you are in the home or away market of the team they are playing. Not sure where Sarasota would fall in that blackout rule. This year COULD be different.
