Found out through a pair of voicemails from my mom that my grandfather had been in the hospital since Sept 29, and just passed away yesterday morning. Second Thanksgiving in a row that's been less than thankful. Last year my grandmother who raised me passed away right before Thanksgiving. Haven't been able to sleep a second since hearing the news. Gah.
Third game in four nights, second of back to back games, road game, Canadian team. It all adds up to not good for the Sabres. But, I think we pull it out, in a close one.
Vancouver scored two goals tonight against the Sens. Pyatt got one and Rory got the other. Imagine that. Too bad neither they, nor any other Canuck, will get one past Miller :D
I've got good news, guys. I go back to New Jersey tomorrow. Buffalo always seems to do poorly while I'm in WNY. They're now 7-5-1 while I've been here. They were 1-1-1 when I was here for a week earlier in the season. They were 0-4 when I was here in March. I must conclude that I am a jinx for the Sabres.
