I was one of those 50 or so. Spring 1979, a couple months before HS graduation.

Same here. I had no idea that I had met "the Harvey Weinstein" until it came out that he got his start as 1/2 of "Harvey & Corky Productions"

Love the Billy Sheehan vote! Takes me back to the days of hanging out at Stage One before Harvey was infamous

I think it was Larry Carriere that said something like - get the puck in your own end, take it behind the net, wait for Bert to circle back, pick it up, skate through both teams and score. Easiest plus 1 possible" I remember LaFleur flying down the wing and getting a pass, not waeving through both teams with the puck, but he was a Hab and it was a long time ago!

I was a freshman at UR at a concert on campus. Can't recall how, but learned the score at the end of the second period during an intermission. Went to the student center where both tv's were tuned to the Olympics. Typical Olympic broadcast even then - switching to several events, but once Mark Johnson tied it the last 10 minutes were shown live. A special feeling that can't really be duplicated because the "cold war" and changes in Olympic eligibility. They'd never play the tournament in a 7500 seat arena today

Bernie Parent is the sole reason the Sabres didn't win in '75

Get 3 out of 4 points before the break and we'll all fee good

Apparently last night's loss was the death knell for their now former staff

For my sanity, I hope I can ignore this game

Anyone else remember the gray seats? Used to have a blue and a gray section, all became blue

Braves games - Tops tickets in the oranges

Favorite Aud memories include Little 3 doubleheaders - didn't realize how special it was to see Calvin Murphy and Bob Lanier play in the first college basketball games I attended; The Who on Dec. 4, 1979; Sabres good memories include Schoeny's 3 fights and beating the Bruins; "Thank you Sabres" as the Habs eliminated us; 12-6 over the Russians

Brilliant - many verses describe the state of being a Sabres fan since 1970!

Memphis Tiger season ticket holder. Tiger basketball is very important

Slightly better because the Earl of Bud was there!

My recollection is that they played a couple of games in Germany a few years ago. Are you counting the outdoor games in the two Winter Classic's as "neutral"?

Great idea, if you don't get a penalty for it

im convinced they are 1. better then last year 2. competitive 3. and good. the question is “how good” 4. i doubt they are as good as their record - giving place in standings

Game 6 loss to Bernie Parent in 75 was 2-0

Best: "Robert, Rene Robert in overtime" 75 finals or "thank you Sabres" as the Habs won the series in 73. Worst: Losing to Isles in 80. That was a great team; Darius Kasperitus in OT; or Pens OT winner in 79

I love Patty, but I'll always think of him as an Isle first

Well said, although LaFontaine and Ramsey clearly deserve to be on the list of choices.

I'll admit, Saturday night I turned game on near the very beginning after a football game ended. I was still in blue & gray for the football game. The early goal stopped mne from putting on my new "golden" jersey. It appears the jersey will stay on a hangar for awhile
