Mustache of God

Fire miller into the sun.

I'll be there tonight. Never seen McDavid live so it'll be nice to see the greatest active hockey player up close.

Chicago & Pittsburgh would like a 2 or 3 words each.

I listened to the promo and it sounds like they were reading a script with a gun to their heads.

I just pulled the trigger on tickets to tomorrow's game specifically so I could see McDavid skate in person for the first time.

Yes, McDavid was the prize, but it doesn't mean he's been the savior. An individual player won't win you any championships, you need a competent front office to build around your core. They've only made the playoffs twice since McDavid's been drafted and haven't done much with that opportunity.

An ideal scenario here is Ovie gets a hattrick and the Sabres win 5-4.

Shades of angry Jack.

This team needs a good veteran defensemen to come in to mentor Dahlin and another for Power next year as well. These young kids can't come in and do everything themselves, they need support.

It was a joke.

With this and the Butcher trade GMKA is really racking up debt of future considerations. What happens if the Devils trade something to the Islanders and in return receive the future consideration owed to the Islanders from the Sabres? Does compounding considerations increase the favor?

I would have preferred a cap dump included if it meant upping the offer.

I can't believe we tanked for Krebs/Tuch.

Tuch, the kid lived with peters in jr's I believe

Yikes. This roster looks even more badder without Olofsson and Mitts. That being said it's a MUST WIN and they will win.

It's the perfect game time. 1pm Bills. 4pm Sabres. What more could one ask for on a Sunday? Free candy?

Whatever happens I hope it's a 7-team BLOCKBUSTER with parts flying around everywhere. I want the trade thread to be longer than the trade speculation thread.

Can you imagine being a young 20ish kid making millions of dollars, living life in a vegas bachelor pad and then getting traded to Buffalo? What a buzzkill.

I've always been a fan of the 10pm games - lets you get everything done for the day and then you can crack open a cold one to cap to night off and if the game is boring you can drift off to sleep.

Reading the comments above I'd say the ideal scenario would be the disc heals on itself, Eichel is able to compete in the Olympics and while doing so, lights it the ***** up with a gold medal - showing the NHL he's back and then GMKA can get an overpayment on him.

What do the advanced stats say about this new analytics guy? Does he impact the front office game? What's his corsi?

I took Tom Webster up on his ticket offer earlier up-thread, and I've got to say that was the most entertaining Sabres game I've been to in a long time. I was also at the AZ game but this one was a lot more fun. My observations: Tage has taken some steps this year. He's noticeably using his big ass to protect the puck from defenders and create space which I imagine is a by-product of him growing into his frame and him knowing he can't toe-drag every time he has the puck. In both games I've went to, I've seen Cozens have some atrocious shifts, but he seems to shake it off. The mistakes are expected for his sophomore year and I'm not worried about him. Kyle Okposo is a man on a mission - where has this play been the past 5 years? I love what I'm seeing from not only him but that entire line. I really hope KO stays healthy and can maintain the energy through the year. In both games I've went to they've announced the Gerbrer (Carruba) Collision early in the 2nd period - which rubs me the wrong way? Are they not expecting hitting in the second half the game? Haag has been awarded both of them although the AZ hit of the game was weak. Anderson looked good but I'm worried about the sustainability of his play deeper into the season. Tokarski is not a 1B goalie and shoddy goaltending is going to sink this team. I can't wait until Colin Miller is off the team. Vancouver's defense is atrocious. Eakin's mullet is...something. We've got a big test on Friday vs Boston and I really hope we crush them.

Murdering (desert) Wolves.

Check out SeatGeek, they seem to have more reasonable prices than StubHub somehow? I got two tickets in 100s to the side of the sabres home net for $110 after fees and taxes

Yesterday I read the letter, checked the weather and then snagged a pair of tickets for the game today. Hoping they can live up to the effort promise. One game is easy, but can they put in the work game after game? This team has lacked that kind of consistency since the tank started. I'm hoping this is actually a new start. Go sabres
