    Let's see, my age getting questioned, now questioning my intellect. I'm going to say yes, I'm aware of what it means. Thanks for your sarcasm - that's also "great".

    And all this because I choose to be positive about this team and not have a complete meltdown when they have challenges.  LOL

    Again, no one is questioning your stance on the Sabres situation.  I agree with you on that.  I was not questioning your intellect, just pointing out that if you are laughing at a gaslighting post in this thread you may not understand the real meaning of the term.  It is used incorrectly much of the time out there in the interwebs in much the same way that woke has been hijacked.

    Telling others that disagree with you that they need to relax is not a good look.  Making light of a perfectly good comment by a veteran poster and then LOLing about his post is not a good look.  Panties in a twist is not a good look.  Talking about posters that disagree with you on 'tearing it down' having a complete meltdown when the team faces challenges is not a good look.  LOLing about your meltdown comment is a terrible look.

    Well they beat the toothless Sharks, as they should, but I do not think there was anything there that makes you think they will move out of what I would call the third tier of the nhl (teams that are better than bottom feeders/tankers but not good enough to make the playoffs). 

    Tuch, Greenway, Mitts played the game like a proper NHL line. 

    Cozens, Quinn, Peterka, had solid moments and were rewarded,

    The top (?) line was garbage. 

    and Bryson? lol, why is he here? just WHY?

    The Sharks were on a 3 game winning steak.

    A word that is foreign to the Sabres.

    Now they have another chance.

  3. Another fun fact about the song above - Myles Goodwyn wrote it when he was in highschool (16 in 1964) and his first little sweetie would not dance with him.  He talked about it a lot later in his career and he thought it was sappy, but it was a pretty big hit here in Canada in 1977.  States too, I think.

    RIP Myles.

    LOL - I clicked on the thread title and was gonna make a joke about "where's the ska discussion group?" and there is a youtube to the Specials!

    I am actually not a "life is ska" type (I generally enjoy most music genres) - but I was fortunate enough to be able to appreciate the rise of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones after Clueless and through the mini-renaissance in the late 90's very early 2000's. Saw Dickie and the boys a dozen times or so in the Chicago/Milwaukee area - great freaking shows. Tons of smaller venues in Milwaukee had lots of the smaller acts, too! What a time to be alive! 

    Probably mostly stems from playing the trumpet 4th grade through pep-band in college 🙂

    Awesome !!

    The ska revival in 1979 was only 11 or 12 years after it's big hay-day in 1967 and 1968.  In 1979 that seemed like eons earlier, but it really wasn't.

  5. I love April Wine.  Good Canadian band from Halifax.

    This song came out when I was in grade 7 (that's 7th grade in Yankee talk) in 1977.  I was not even a teen yet (12 - turned 13 that October).

    I had my first little girlfriend that year - meaning that we hung out at school that school year.  It was great.

    By the time the end of the year dance came along ...

    I was at a loss as to what happened.  Finally she told me that she was moving just a few blocks, but she would be going to a different school in the fall.  She told me that this was easier for both of us.  I said screw that.  She was moving just before school started the next September so we had a great summer.

    Years later - high school graduation time (18) we ran into each other.  I was still very fond of her, but we both had moved on with our lives, but I did not have another girlfriend until I was 15.

    She told me that she was staying with her aunt and uncle since her family moved to Israel.  She refused to go since she would have to do 2 years in the army.  She told me she did not want to torment or kill Palestinians.  I loved her when I was 12, I suppose, but didn't understand it.  I definately loved her at 18 when she told me that.  I love her today even though I have not seen her or talked with her since that day.

    At close to 60, I am thinking of all these random things these days.

    I won't bore you with all of them.

    If the devil's fire lindy ruff do the Sabres bring him back to undo the curse when he left

    Buffalo has been through 7( Granato will be gone) head coaches and 12 Straight years without playoffs

    I say reverse the curse nothin else works

    You need to edit your poll and make it public so we know who to shame.

  7. The goal by Greenway was a beaut.

    I love how he lifted the stick of the Shark player in front of the net as Tuch was passing to him.  There was no way the Shark was going to get his stick on the puck when it came acrost.

    Just awesome.

    We better get a PP goal then, just for you! 

    I have no feed.  I am following along here and on NHL.com game centre for the goal highlights.  I always watch the highlight reel after a win.  After a loss - not so much.

    This actually happened last game.

    I also believe it's an indictment of Tuch who has not been forechecking as well as he should.  They don't want to mess up the JJP-Quinn-Cozens so they move up Okposo.  I do think it also has the impacts you mentioned. If Tuch was playing the way he SHOULD be playing, he'd be on that line.

    Won't see this one.. real life has more important things planned for today.

    Really ??!!

    FIRE EVERYBODY !!
