As our goaltending goes, so goes the Sabres.

Moving Tage to the first line could have less to do with trying to find chemistry on that line (Skinner and Eichel do just fine), and more about trying to find stability/production in the second and third lines.

I commute home for ONE period. Holy sh*t

"I can't shoot the puck low" -Tage Thompson

i see we're deploying our wacky inflatable arm flailing tube man defense.

Bury a puck! it's frustrating when your primary scoring has to come from your secondary scoring. These guys can't close.

9 players on the ice lost sight of it.

we're going to gain a reputation as the the hardest building to play in because you think you're at practice.

it's a museum in there.

I'm not against calling up Bailey.

Dear Sabres,

A challenger has joined!

Don't get me started on the goal song. But then again other teams have bad goal songs too. I would be good with just the horn. I did sort of like when they'd play Rick's goal call over the speakers. I heard that from the broadcast a few times over the years. Also, is your caveat true? I feel like the changes that have happened to the crowd are recent. Do we get the same energy after an eight-year hiatus? Maybe because tickets will be so expensive it'll price out families?

It has Kim Pegula's prints all over it. This is the atmosphere they want to build with the teams (I'm not saying it's necessarily bad), but they want approachable, non-threatening, soft, fun. It's orchestrated to be family forward. Almost to the point that it's A.D.D. inducing. The second action stops it's cut away to kids dancing, giveaways, giveaways, giveaways, more kids dancing, more yelling DJ, puck drop, absolute silence. I used to make fun of the Carolina Hurricanes crowd for feeling like a Disney on Ice crowd and now we've entered that territory.

It was so embarrassing in front of these Bruins fans to basically have the DJ holding our hands in how we should cheer and/or support the team. I've been to TD a bunch of times and it's (putting it lightly) hostile to visiting team fans. I was ready for at least some rousing from our fans, but these guys were starting their own chants, threatening our fans and laughing at our atmosphere. Tough pill to swallow.

I’m an out-of-towner who attended the Bruins game this weekend. I’ve been to four Sabres games in the last two years in DC and Raleigh. I haven’t been to a home game in probably 7 years. After attending, I have a few questions: What the hell was that? What happened to the game day experience? Why is no one cheering? We were UP a goal! Why is it whisper quiet during play? I could hear the Sabres communicating with each other from the 300s Why is there a DJ treating the fans like they don’t know how to view a hockey game? “Come on Sabres fans, let ‘em know you stick by your team and let me hear you cheeerrrrrr!!” why is sabretooth leading a section in a “let’s go buffalo” chant that extends maybe five rows before dying out? why are there at least 25% Bruins fans? when did it become so kid oriented? It felt like the circus rather than hockey. As if the game was a minor inconvenience between T-shirt guns and blimp coupon drops. somehow $13 beers were the least shocking part of the night. We didn’t earn hockeytown on Saturday.

We need to survive through to the all star break (hopefully get 10 out of 16 points), and then go get help.

“After you kill this penalty off” hahah

Theyre skating great tonight. The announcers forced to say Washington is having a great defensive game tonight instead of buffalos dominating the puck.

Love those excited announcers.

They have L and XL here. https://www.47brand.com/products/buffalo-sabres-headline-pullover-hood-mens-1?variant=50364896660&utm_campaign=gs-2018-10-05-1&utm_source=google&utm_medium=smart_campaign&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIosz3p66x3wIVAdNkCh0OAgiWEAQYASABEgLcevD_BwE

Classic tage D

I’m suffering from Tage fatigue. What is he? Weird size. Weird style. Varying degrees of effort. Lots of penalties. Yet, on the ice a lot.
