Randall Flagg

Yeah Sam!!!

Nice peeper losers

Our defenseman have been making really ill-advised plays with the puck since 4 mins in the 1st. You can't ice it when you have the puck and have time. Make time. Keep the puck away from them, and out of your zone.

Not as strong so far. Weather the storm! Score goals!

Brilliant play from Pilut.

Skinner is mediocre when not scoring butt-tons of goals in tight.

Dutifully pointing out another Sobotka clean slot possession that turns into nothing

They were literally giving like a gear update weren't they? Why would he talk about that if he wasn't shortening his stick for the upcoming season? It wouldn't make any sense at all given the context of their discussion. "Oh hey I shortened my stick two summers ago" And I dunno, but I have about 5 hockey sticks of varying sizes, but within reason for someone my height, and 3 of them are interchangeable and the other two are unusable, and you would never be able to pick which two are unusable for me, it just has to do with what I'm used to, and I play a lot less than Jack. I don't think there's a linear relationship between stick length and ability or inability to do particular things with them. Excuse making for what? What is more reasonable? That Jack still hasn't figured out how to pick corners with a new twig, but is still a hockey player pacing for more points than he's ever had and doing really well in tight with it? Or that Jack just plain forgot how to do two weirdly specific skills, stickhandling in open ice and taking one-timers? But is great/fine at everything else?

In the podcast he said he's taken a little off each year, no? It's shorter now than it was last year. Or he just magically forgot how to stickhandle, but it was obvious to me from the first period of the first preseason game it was even shorter than last April which was shorter than his first year.

Same it's been dreadful But in my case, you get what you (don't) pay for (I pay for NHL TV but they assume I can afford a cable bill too for an entire year so that I can watch 5 sabres games)

Bogosian made about four dumb plays at the end there. When you play the Leafs, you need to keep the puck in your team's possession, and you need to avoid icings. That way, the Leafs' offense doesn't have the puck. Pretty simple formula. Other than that, fantastic period by the Buffalo Sabres, and it's a shame we couldn't cash in. We need to start burying our chances right away!

Dumb Bogo

Yikes ERod. Now this is just some outstanding hockey from the Sabres. Please score. Please win. And count me in on the Risto battling Dahlin for offensive zone supremacy thing

Great shift from Reesto. Man, I want us to score eight goals tonight. We're getting lots of chances. Andersen is good.

Keep takin' it to 'em boys.

Who is going to watch Deal or No Deal

Very nice start. God I want us to win this game so bad.

That was weak ***** thompson

Great first two shifts.

Sometimes I hate Ferraro, but those two are synonymous with epic fun winter weekends growing up with WJC and Sabres games flowing into and out of each other nonstop Pilut is going to have an...experience tonight with these Leafs forwards.

I completely understand why fans sell their seats, and I don't resent them for it. Except on Leaf night. I can't help resenting them for it.

If it's Gord or Chris, I'm jealous.

Kenny Albert? I'll take it.

Oh man I spend all offseason dreaming about these next three hours

I'm very happy I don't have to watch KB wear the Bills logo again. I'll take my lumps with Zay and Foster the rest of the year, guys who work their ***** off even if not supremely talented.
