  1. Those are great points and on a levelheaded day I completely agree but I'm so desperate for any kind of meaningful playoff sports experience from the teams I root for. I'm not a baseball fan but watching those Jays highlights have got me really missing cheering for a team in the post season. Between the Sabres and the Bills...you all know how it is, it's been rough and in today's world of instant gratification I want results. GO SABRES!
  2. This writer would beg to differ : http://therattrick.com/2015/10/15/florida-panthers-have-best-attendance-in-nhl/ That being said, I've been to a game or two in Florida a few years ago and the attendance/atmosphere was pathetic. I'm glad they're turning it around down there. I recall when the trade first happened a lot of Colorado fans came out of the woodwork to tell Sabres fans that we're gonna love McGinn. I'm really liking his game, guy is a true 3rd line player. On a different note, I wish I could just push the fast forward button and stop at the time we have Eichel as our number 1 center with O'Reilly on the wing and Reinhart as the #2 center.
  3. I loved Jagr as a penguin. When I was a young and stupid (6,7,8 years old?) I was more of a penguins fan than I was a Sabres fan. Remember watching Lemieux , Jagr, and Francis all playing together? I have more memories of my dad taking me and my brother down to Pittsburgh to see games in the Igloo than I do going to games at the Aud. My first Jersey I ever owned was a Jagr jersey and I think I still have it tucked away somewhere but I have no idea where. I didn't become a full-fledged Sabres fan until the first Ted Nolan era.
  4. My ideal situation tonight plays out with the Sabres scraping out a win and Jagr putting up multiple points. He's 46 points away from eclipsing Howe as the 3rd all time scorer in the NHL. Jagr played his first NHL game in 1990, 6 years before Eichel was even born.
  5. How long have you been waiting for a lay-up like that?
  6. I watched parts of the Edmonton game last night. They're defense is either scary bad or the stars forechecking is elite. It seemed everyone the puck was chipped in by the stars the oilers defence would get pressured and cough the puck up and Dallas would get a scoring chance or two. McDavid's goal was "meh". The oilers have scored three goals this season, an own goal from St Louis a puck that deflected off a stars player and McDavids tip. They are looking far worse off than the sabres.
  7. Johnson is terrible at playing the puck.
  8. It'll be hard to get a grasp for our D until Bogo is back and healthy. U til then we're asking other guys to step up a level they shouldn't be playing. Hopefully it's not another dumpster fie tonight.
  9. Mike Harrington ‏@BNHarrington Colaiacovo not in warmup and Donovan seemingly the extra on D with McCabe going in. #Sabres
  10. Not sure if it's been mentioned but McCabe is playing today. No word on whose sitting in his place.
  11. Everybody relax, we all want fireworks after the past two years and they will come eventually. Keep in mind the oilers have played two games so far and have only "scored" one goal which was actually an own goal from their first apoearance. Our offense has scored two and they have zilch so maybe everything isn't ? I don't know, too much scotch tonight? I was at the game and it was a little disappointing to not see much offense but it will come, I hope. It must and it shall and it will. Somebody make some noise in this joint!
  12. I've seen maybe 7 or 8 different line combos today.
  13. Like seeing some girgs on the first line. They're also playing a dun step remix of bon Jovi in the arena...I thought he was banned from buffalo.
  14. If any of you fan Advantage point junkies want the QR Code from today's program guide I've uploaded an image other reddit you can scan for some sweet, sweet points. https://www.reddit.com/r/sabres/comments/3o8e9u/fan_advantage_qr_code_1010/?sort=confidence
  15. Gamecenter free trial ends oct. 27th...don't quote me on that as I'm pulling that from memory. Alternatively one could presumably look on the /r/nhlstreams subreddit for viewing opportunities
  16. Mike Harrington ‏@BNHarrington #Sabres call up Lieuwen, send out McCabe and Ullmark, put Lehner on IR. No results yet.
  17. I'm hoping the Sabres put on a show today because it's a rare home game that I'll be in attendance for. I'm also skipping my friends wedding part of his wedding to watch them so I hope they make it worthwile.
  18. RJ missed training camp with an injury and came back a little over weight and out of shape. Give him a few games to heal up and shake off the rust and really settle in.
  19. Eichel goal was great and all but this team really needs to play 60 minutes. We saw the same thing in that game against Minnesota. That offsides challenge hurts but we'll get some calls in our favor down the line.
  20. These coaches challenges are gonna get old real quick
  21. Ugh...let me clear my throat won out...disappointed it wasn't swords
  22. Jack eichel! Rj really flubbed that call
  23. Gamecenter is free all month and also check the nhlstreams subreddit
  24. BOLD PREDICTION: SABRES COME OUT SWINGING IN THE THIRD AND WIN 4-2 I missed the first two periods but am now in front of a TV with a beer in hand. Glad they got the jitters out in the first two periods now it's time to wake the #### up and play some hockey. I wanna hear that goal song.
  25. What I'm most excited about is having actual talent for RJ to call the game to. It's not Sabres hockey without him calling the games while he's still able.
