Mustache of God

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

I hope skinner scores 40 at home this season.

Nice! I understand the criticisms people have of the show but I've listened to it for so long that I miss the banter between these two. I haven't really liked the 1 hr show WGR switched to with Duffer and Marty as it feels like it's 40 minutes of Duff trying to reign in Marty.

I predict a Sabres win. Skinner opens the scoring. Bjork closes it.

Them waiving Axel Foley and not picking anyone up off of waivers is a real head scratcher. It begs the question, "Why?".

The sabres waiving Axel means there's a good possibility we claim this guy? It's cutthroat but I like it.

Good for him. I'm guessing Dahlin plays for Sweden and......is Peterka good enough for Germany?

It is not important at all, you got a goalie in the Reinhart trade. The major pieces to replace Eichel need to be centers who have the potential to be first liners.

The bolded is a point that I've never really considered until now. They forced that trade to save a $7 million dollar bonus to ROR - and that trade dismantled the rebuild and is one of primary reasons of the current state of the team, which will be costing them hundreds of millions long term in lost ticket, concession and merchandising revenue. Cheap billionaire ***** sticks.

It's not assuring that the goalie Adams brought in to replace Ullmark lost a camp battle to Tokarski.

And I waved back goodbye.

Municipal Waste.

I expect him to play tonight vs Pittsburgh?
