Sabres Fan in NS

Yes. Power stayed on. Just flickered a few times last night. We are right on the Atlantic (literally ... a few feet away) and the temperature stayed warm enough long enough for the precip to be rain. We had a thin layer of ice and a little snow on top. Just a few kms inland things are very bad. Lots of power outages around the whole province. Thank you for your service.

I think he may have been referring to the early Hasek years where the team was talented, but I would say not above average. Without Hasek I doubt they make the playoffs. I'm not counting 1993 when Hasek didn't play much, if I recal correctly, until the playoff and only while Fuhr was hurt. In 1994, 1995 and 1996 they were pretty terrible. In 1997 they were not very talented and very hard working and Hasek was really at the top of his game. 1998 and 1999 speak for themselves. I agree with you those teams were above average by a lot and would have made the playoff without Hasek. I don't think they make the ECF and SCF in 1998 and 1999 without Hasek.

A good friend who is a Rabbi has a great saying that seems to apply here ... there is always someone that will insist on throwing a turd into the punch bowl 😉

Still no ice here in NS. That's all I got.

Still just raining here at the Atlantic Ocean near Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

I didn't think it was possible, but the Hawks and that jackass have actually managed to make an unspeakably terrible situation even worse. The cherry on top is that the NHL has literally done nothing.

So far we are still heavy rain right here on the Atlantic (literally) ... we are right at the ocean. A few kilometers inland and it's all iced over and freezing rain. Whatever precipitation will fall it will be all day and overnight with temps falling to below freezing at some point tomorrow and snow. We may be very lucky here on the water to have rain and then a quick change to snow, but all the water standing around (the ground is too frozen to absorb any) will freeze over and be a skating rink tomorrow. I will take that if we don't get 24 hours of freezing rain. Power is holding and that is my biggest concern. Note to self ... NS, look into that damn generator again.

Rain Storm today and overnight. Ice Storm all day tomorrow starting at 08:00. It's going to be fun. And the whole mess is going to freeze rock solid overnight tomorrow and Saturday will be -15 degrees.

I still believe that the start of this protest was a bunch of truckers that did not like mandates and it was hijacked by extremists soon after they heard about it.

The so called Olympic break pushed it and they have not reset it? Only reason I can think of. Maybe it's just that the NHL is dumb.

What an idiot. Can the NHL ban an owner / chairperson? That is what should have happened and cleaned out every last remaining person that had any knowledge of what was going on, which I think would leave very few standing.

I agree with all of this. The coaches and players were never asked to lose on purpose. They were mocked and told ... try to win with a bunch of marginal players. No matter what management took us down that terrible road. And the worst part was that it turned fan against fan on this message board and in the arena. So sorry for what you went through @Marvin, Sabres Fan. Disgraceful.

Upi ?????

Epic win in El Salvador last night. Canada on the precipice. A draw in any of the 3 remaining matches in March and they are in. Awesome. Too bad I am still of the mind to boycott the WC.

You got me, but I admit that I don't type goodly. You missed my whole point about Inky and his magic hyphen, or lack thereof.

Inky missed the hyphen, which he never does. He doesn't want this guy to resign from him job.

You are slipping Inky. Either that or a not very goodly typer has hacked your account.

Seems a bit harsh. A firey death does not sound like fun.

Huge match tonight. At this point they all are. MUST WIN!! GO CANADA!!

Sabres drama is Sabres drama, even if it could be viewed as good drama. We can't live without the drama.

Nothing worse than a not warm bottom, IMO.

It really seems like he is going to be something. Will it transfer to the NHL? We shall see. Florida must have been very reluctant to include him in that trade. Good job KA and the scouting staff.

This is why these threads should be locked and set adrift. Force people to ferret around in the SabreSpace cobwebs to find it and read it, BUT not able to bring it back to life.

You sould be concerned with the local weather Mr. Real Balls Creek. At least we can always count on Frankie. He is the best warner we have.
