Mustache of God

Unofficially, yes. Officially, they have to have the roster down to 23 sometime tomorrow.

I give up on the game and go out and they've got 4 goals now? Talk about a wake up call

This is not how I pictured how it would look at the end of the first period....GET IT TOGETHER!

Happy to oblige you, for Columbus, that is: FORWARDS: Calvert, Craig, Rychel, Milano, Karlsson, Bjorkstrand, Hannikainen, Chaput, Boll, Sedlak, Tynan, Broadhurst DEFENSEMEN: Bodnarchuk, Connauton, Falk, Goloubef, Kukan, Prout GOALIES: McElhinney, Thiessen I don't recognize a single name on that list so I'm expecting nothing short of a slaughter. "A handful of Sabres who skated in Thursday’s 6-1 loss in Minnesota will play again Friday. Bylsma confirmed thatSam Reinhart, Johan Larsson and Rasmus Ristolainen will be back in the lineup and he expects a better effort from all of them." With Reinhart & Larsson being in tonight. I wonder who the odd man out in the bottom 6 will be. Legwand?

Legend has it that Jack eichel is boarding in those brows.

The schedule on nhl.com lists the broadcasto for all the games.

Sounds uglier than I would have guessed. Sabres down 3-0 and being outshot 16-3. The bright side is that it's an ahl squad vs and nhl squad tonight, one last ghastly reminder of the past two years.

Wgr550 is streaming the audio on their website wgr550.com

Radio just said Patrick kale take has left the ice already.

Tomorrow's game is being broadcast by msg so locals can watch it on TV and the rest of us can catch a stream

I see it not as a case of Legwand vs. Larsson, or not even a battle between any two specific players but a competitions among 5-6 players (Reinhardt, Larsson, Legwand, Foligno, Deslauries, McGinn) who will we rotating in and out of the line-up as Byslma sees fit. If Reinhardt has a bad game or two he's gonna sit and Larsson goes in and plays until Legwand has a bad game, etc. I think these players will be pushing each other to perform well and that'll drive the bottom line pairings as well....until the injuries kick in.

Blysma was saying that he A. Doesn't want to have guys play 3 pre-season games in a row and B. Have the final preseason game tomorrow vs. Columbus reflect the opening night roster so what we have today are the scraps. I think the exceptions for 3 in a row will be Risto since he missed most of camp and hopefully Reinhardt (because I want to see him playing with the "real" line-up)

per wgr550: Here are tonight’s lines: Foligno Girgensons Kaleta McGinn Larsson Reinhart Rodrigues, C.O’Reilly Akeson Carrier Schaller Ellis The defense is Pysyk, Ruhwedel, McCabe, Ristolainen, Leduc and Donovan. How many shifts does Kaleta get before he injures himself or gets thrown out of the game for being to amped up? This should be the last preseason game where we see "scrubs" playing and I'm not actually upset that this one won't have a stream. Here's the Wild's lineup from their website. It'll be interesting to see the Sabres "top" pairing of Foligno - Girgensons - Kaleta line up against he likes of Parise/Pominville/Vanek/Koivu/Granlund/Niederreiter.... I think the Sabres lose this game but I'd like to "see" a strong performance from our D. Niklas Backstrom Darcy Kuemper Devan Dubnyk Charlie Coyle Mike Reilly Christian Folin Marco Scandella Mikko Koivu Jordan Schroeder Zach Parise Jason Zucker Ryan Carter Zac Dalpe Ryan Suter Nino Niederreiter Matt Dumba Jonas Brodin Thomas Vanek Tyson Strachan Jason Pominville Nate Prosser Jared Spurgeon Tyler Graovac Brett Bulmer Erik Haula Mikael Granlund

Unfortunately I don't think there will be a stream tonight, similar to the first preseason game against minnesota.

Came here to say Ennis.

Here's a fun fact. Last season the Islanders led the league with 10 short handed goals. The Sabres have 5 in 5 preseason games so far. Let's hope we keep this train rolling.

Whooo! Liking that we can start building up some trust for lehner and also his own confidence. When's the last time Sabres had a shutout?

Great PK work by Legwand right there.

Fours days ago as well.

Ugly power play by the Sabres.

GOAL! E-ROD gets another? Good play by Sam to set it up!

Early in the first period before any goals they said "The Sabres have already scored two short handed goals this pre-season and Eichel has one of them." It's like they don't prepare for these games at all or rather just discount the other team entirely. Before the game started they were talking about Babcock saying "You might expect him to get some boos but it's all Toronto fans at these games."

Ouch. Hope ennis is ok. He just took a slapper from Phaneuf right in the tongue of his skates. Not too much padding there and he's gone to the locker room. Here's to hoping it's just a bruise. Sabres down Ennis & Guhle because of Phaneuf. Someone please take a run at him.

Eh, deep down they know. They're not on air to tell the truth but to promote of product. That being said, I can't stand watching/listening to these guys. I can't wait to be watching a homer broadcast. Nothing quite like home team broadcasting confirmation bias.

It wasn't dirty but it was definitely on the line. Similar situation to the Akeson hit a few games ago.
