Buchnevich is unstoppable... against us.

Well then stick around and hang out with us! It's an older troll, sir, but it checks out. I was about to clear it. Dahlin does have muscle against Kreider. Although... 'twas the horizontal stick caught against the glass that did the damage.

Hey, Colin Blackwell is the intermission interview on NYR broadcast. Living the dream each day, 27 about to turn 28, and he's just trying to make it. Thus he skates with passion, energy, and Eichel probably isn't the only top-line opposition that he drives bonkers simply with hustle and will. We don't have any of these players. We don't have a single player who is forcing his way onto the roster via effort and the coach can't keep him off of it.

The Rangers broadcast has been very... apologetic for the Sabres. COVID, injury to McCabe, and poor puck luck. I'm minutes behind... Eichel just took down his arch-nemesis... former Amerk Colin Blackwell. Will catch up to live over the commercials/intermission.

Except for teammate Taylor Hall, who was 26 when he won the Hart and made the playoffs for his first time (and with the help of MoJo and Drew Stafford and... Matthew Kinkaid??? in goal). Also after being traded.

We must prepare the ice for the third period --- Remove the supports!

Bloodsport ran at 12:05 AM CST on TBS along with fellow stalwarts The Beastmaster, Gymkata, and The Delta Force. These are all bad movies. They are all great fun to watch at 1205 AM and I did so frequently. I may even unashamedly have copies of said films to rewatch at later times. (But they're still bad movies.) To the Kumite!

It sure feels like we're driving a jawa sandcrawler to the playoffs. Except of course the playoffs are offworld and require a ship with an operational hyperdrive.

Bloodsport is an objectively bad movie, just as we are a subjectively bad NHL hockey team. But Bloodsport is really fun to watch if you happen to be a fan. The Sabres are not fun to watch.

They'll use the opportunity to give their taxi squad guys some time to stay fresh. We'll still get crushed if we keep on like this.

Dahlin backed down. It's 0-3. Just suck it up and start throwing punches. Backed down just like the rest of this team.

Pathetic. Fire the coach, please. This team has no guidance, leadership, or execution. Hope all y'all 'Spacers have a good week.

Go fight Dahlin! Do it! Pathetic. Farrabee whacked you in the head and was ready and willing to go. Fight him. Yes, he's going to clean your clock... but do it. Get some experience.

Maybe if Josh Allen points out that he knows what good coaching looks like, and the Sabres don't have it... something would happen.

I know Olofsson scored on a deflection in the air off the goalie and Reinhart had the backhand put back at crossbar height... but when was the last time we scored a goal on a rebound where we had to outwork or win a battle to bury said rebound goal?

Alas, no... that's a guy who went from elite prospect to retirement because he was suffering from, but not yet diagnosed with (had to look this up) malignant hyperthermia. It stinks what happened to him.

Remember when we tanked and we had to trade Enroth because he was scraping out a win or two we didn't deserve? Remember this lineup? Ennis - Girgensons - Stewart Moulson - Mitchell - Gionta Deslauriers - Flynn - Foligno Larsson - Ellis - Hodgson Benoit - Bogosian Zadorov - Ristolainen Weber - Meszaros Neuvirth (Lindback) 2/15/2015 vs. PHI. That was only a 2-1 loss because the team didn't look absolutely lost, just outclassed and talent-deficient.

Ristolainen just battled through a heinous virus that took him over 2 weeks to recover from and possibly long-term health effects on his lungs, heart, etc. He should demand a trade to a contender because life can go awry at any time.

Depends on if you enjoy the drinking and what you're drinking.

No. He's not important except as the joke that was Sabres University.

What is the likelihood anyone throws a reckless hit or tries to initiate a fight in order to wake up his teammates? You know, the kind of thing any other roster in the NHL would do when down 3-0 at home late in the 2nd and needing to send a message that the third period is going to be different.

I'm folding laundry... I need to fold as quickly as this team does so that I can stop watching.

Maybe some boos would wake them up. Or a huge euphoric roar at a hit would wake them up. They certainly can't seem to motivate themselves. Perhaps GM Sheevyn will find new ways to motivate them.

This team folds so easily. Gave up a quick goal and have had no response. One great chance and Montour did nothing with it.

I imagine the intermission speeches were something like this: HCRK - Great first period! We had energy. Gotta keep it up. AV - What the heck is going on out there? Go score some goals!
