    Figured he'd be the call up. He might not play, but he'd be the best fit on the Larsson line if they want to try moving Okposo up in favor of Erod who has not made the Mitts line any better - so far.  

    After seeing all the praise heaped on the Larsson line for their effectiveness and overall play, I would be surprised to see that combo broken up before their play slips.

  2. Love my old school Martin Jersey, I took a picture of it against a black background and used it as an avatar when he passed away.

     

    Get what you want, but avoid the flashy new guy who hasn't done anything yet. I still chuckle at seeing the Bernier jersey At the arena from time to time.

  3. If you believe in karma and the "Hockey Gods" you have to wonder if all this wishing for Sabres losses that has been going on will have an impact. What is that saying, be careful what you wish for. What if the "Hockey Gods" grant the wishes of some and the Sabres lose out and get 30th pick. The "season" isn't over, what if the "Gods" while granting this wish consider the "lottery" part of the season and the "Gods" cause the Sabres to lose out on the lottery and the Sabres have to settle for 29th and a team like the Leafs or Philadelphia wins McDavid? "Gods" are cruel and are often pranksters, just look at platypuses and Republicans. The desires of some may be the downfall of us all.

    I think the Hockey Gods respect the long view, and the tank hockey sense in the long view. Thus, the Gods are appeased. In fact, I believe the Hockey Gods are going to throw the Sabres a bone - yes, I'm predicting a lottery win and 30th place. It's the ulitmate make-up call after some of the recent history (ie No Goal I & II, Drury/Briere)

  5. When I was around 10-11 years old (~1976), I played in my school band. My band teacher was also a private pilot and would occaisionally take a student or two on an airplane ride out of Prior Aviation. One early Spring evening, I was the lucky kid who got to go with him. We got back after our flight, and I noticed some of the well dressed guys sitting around Prior looked kinda familiar. Turns out the Sabres were flying a charter out of Prior to Philadelphia that evening. In a little while, the whole terminal would be filled with players and personnel. I called my parents, and they gave me permission to stay a little later. So, I wound up getting all the players autographs, including the French Connection, as well as Marcel Pronovost, Ted Darling, and (I think) Jeanerette. I still have the autographs to this day. If I remember to dig them up, I'll snap a pic and post it.

     

    What a cool evening!

    According to Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News and Observers the Canes have been told the game is off

    Johnny I think posted the same tweet... waiting to hear for sure

     

    I should add that some of the Buffalo guys have not heard anything about the game being off. Safe to assume they are making calls and checking now.

     

    Yes, same info I found.

  8. Ok I think I've figured it out.

     

    For some reason, on this computer if I access the forum through the drop down menu, it doesn't log me in.

     

    If I access the forum directly, then I am still logged in.

     

    IE and FF seem to be showing the same behavior, btw.

     

    Oddly enough, on my other machine, I can access the forum via the dropdown menu and still be shown as logged in.

  9. Firefox 2 doesn't seem to keep me logged in between sessions the way 1.x does.

     

    It only seems to happen on this board, vBulletin boards work fine and so do UltimateBBS.

     

    Is there something different about Invision I should know to keep myself logged in?

    (Yes, I've ticked the remember me box in the login)

    I definitely am holding off on getting an HDTV for at least another year or 2. I liked the way the unis looked (kind of surprised myself) but unless they had a closeup on a Sabre I couldn't really see that thing on the front (which was a good thing ;) ). So no HDTV for this kid.

     

     

     

    Football in HD looks awesome. Hockey was cool, but it was a bit of a letdown after what I had heard others say.

     

    The new blue looks black. Too bad, I was hoping it would look better. Saw it on at least 3 different standard def sets and 1 HD set, all looked black.
