  1. Maam - sure like that name - Clementine! Ends the greatest movie of all time
  2. I missed it - my mother wanted to go with Dad and did. I was glued to the radio and Ted's call
  3. Meehan scoring on Favell with 4 seconds left brings a smile to my face and wistful tear to my eye. I remember it well
  4. Sounds like Harvey Johnson’s coaching philosophy with the Juice🤮
  5. This brought back so many WARM memories of my youth. Thanks
  6. Used to be worth a trip to the Ft. Erie beverage store
  7. Somebody remembers Al Smith's retirement from the Sabres!
  8. Agreed - and I'm not blaming Eichel. As a freshman he helped get his team to the championship game, they simply lost to Providence. A U18 gold is an impressive achievement, and says alot about what he can accomplish with adequate teammates. Drury is simply a winner, an intangible many athletes don't have. Eichel may well have it, he just hasn't had the opportunity to put it on display
  9. Drury is a winner, going back to Little League baseball. Starting with college, Eichel hasn't won
  10. You beat me to it, but I was going to say if he becomes Hajt, but not Ramsey I’ll be very happy

    Dis or Dat?

    George Blanda darn near did!
  12. Thanks - just added it to the beach vacation reading list
  13. Brings back memories of attending the open practice for some reason
  14. Once he pulls on a B's sweater, Taylor Hall becomes my most hated bruin since Schoeny had to fight Orr, Vadnais, and Cashman
  15. While I don't necessarily disagree, there is a part of me that likes this NHL asst/AHL head coach experience better than a fired former nhl coach. At a minimum, he has earned serious consideration, rather than just lip service and a perfunctory interview.
  16. What I like, so far, about Granato is that he is putting players in a position to succeed. He’s getting the best out of what he has, rather than senselessly pounding a square peg into a round hole. he may be what this team needs right now and has plenty of ahl (developmental) experience.
  17. Never thought about drafting GM Tallon because we couldn’t get a French Canadian. the wheel might as well have landed on one of that was the situation🤔
  18. If it was Toronto, I’d think the trade would already have been made to get the quarantine done. No sense waiting once Palmieri was gone to the isles
  19. I keep remembering that there is only one team Bowman didn't take to the Finals
  20. One reason this gives me pause to think it might be real - Team USA was alot of fun to watch and well coached in the recent U20 worlds
  21. Haven't scrolled through yet, but the title immediately made me think "Thank You Sabres" growing from a low murmur to an Aud filled chant as the Habs eliminated Buffalo in 1973. I was already a diehard, but that night still brings warm memories about possibilities
  22. Brought me back to the final home game in 1972 when Gerry Meehan scored in the final seconds to knock Philly out of the playoffs
