I forgot about the Stallions, went to quite a few of those games. I loved walking into the Aud and checking the leader boards as soon as you came through the gates. I will never forget walking past the line of smokers as you walked up the ramps.

It was definitley off the last two games. I got an email stating to use my bar code on the onebuffalo app to get discounts, but it didn't work at the stands.

You as well. I appreciate it.

Actually, I was replying to this comment you made. I am pretty sure it was apparent. There's a thread somewhere wherein someone implied that the Sabres hired Housley only because his wife (a Minnesota state senator running for US Senate) has political beliefs which appeal to the Pegulas. Didn't realize you all got as irratiable as the TBD crew. My bad. The point being seeing they support different political parties not sure there is much appeal other than respect for what Phil actually brings to the table, not his political affiliations.

The Op's comment was about Housleys wife, not the arena. And yes, I get the jest.

Two different political parties, I highly doubt it.

Perhaps, may do him some good.

He was sitting around looking pretty useless today.

I am renewing. Thats what the family, and I enjoy doing. It is a much more family friendly environment than going to the Ralph. Besides, when the team starts playing well, it will make up for the lean years as a season ticket holder.

Middle Stud is a natural Center, there is no way you move him to wing, or with Jack. With ROR, Jack, and Casey down the middle that is a formidable threesome.

sounds like the trade winds are blowing.

Love it, who cares? Did he hurt someones feelings with his cockiness? Maybe he didn't get enough participation trophies growing up.

I am pretty sure the Moulson deal (1st time) was to get to the cap floor. Okposo had a pretty good year last season before the injury. I honestly don't think he is 100% yet.

That was hysterical, I think they say that knowing kids can't spend $11 for a beer. If you bring your friends that is a larger dollar spent at the concession stands.

I have a younger wife, we don't care either. Good for you. He had some off ice issues that included an assault, and some pretty good party habits. 29 points in 101 games in the NHL. Certainly not earth shattering.

I was watching, or reading an analysis of Jacks shot. They said it was the length of his stick, and the fact that he doesn't need to reposition his hands for a shot. That coupled with his skill is what makes his shot so effortless.

He is brutal. I think he read my tweet to him about calling hockey goals as if it were a Soccer match. Can't stand it.

Unfortunately we are stuck with Moulson due to contract, which is a shame considering there are some young guys that could step in and take his place. Georges is a good #7 that we are paying a lot of money to ride the pine.

I agree with those numbers on a 4 year contract. Last thing we want is to get sucked in to a long term contract that will take him into his declining years. Then we end up paying him for 10 years on a buyout like Ehrhoff, or Coney Hotdog. I figured as much. Was just giving you a hard time. We all have them.

Count me in the extend Kane group. Maybe I will get banned? Is this the TBD board?

No TV. I am excited, Hockey starting helps me let go of my Bills frustration every year. I will be in my seats per usual, drinking a beer and smiling at my wife, and daughter. Anyone can say what they want about the lack of energy in the building at times, but it is a much more family friendly experience than the Ralph. Go Sabres!!!!

I see him on the third line with Larry playing that solid two way winter that can kill penalties, and chip in 10-15 goals a year.

Dunleavy calling goals like it is a Soccer match drives me insane. He needs to work on his inflection as well. I am not a fan.

I really couldn't care less. He would have been a nice depth piece but from his perspective a better opportunity does exists in NJ.

Apologies ink. I should have consulted you before I posted the thread.
