Like what I have been reading about Antipin, here's hoping he signs and all works out well.

Well, I think it's safe to declare the inauguration of this hopefully annual event a rousing success; everything from Eichel out-dueling Matthews to Modo coming all the way over from Sweden, that night had it all.
So, in talking with Tom Webster, we start again! The schedule isn't typically released until the end of June, but we would like to gauge the initial interest right first so we can prepare.
A few things:
1) It's only fair, IMO, that those who went last year are grandfathered in. If you went last year, you get first dibs on coming this year
2) I would like to do two games, one in November / December and one in March / April. We're not sure if this one is doable yet. If not, we would again do a spring game
3) We don't know the schedule yet, but I would like to hear thoughts on if we want another Leafs game, or a different team.
4) Gabriel's Gate worked perfectly, I vote we go there again.
This process went very smoothly last time, let's make it that way again please.
i would be over next season if i could but not possible at the moment, would love to meet you guys on here. Will happen at some point, hopefully sooner rather than later

Aren't you near that crazy red Firth of Forth bridge?
about a 20 minute walk to the bridge from my place, that bridge is now 127 years old

Botts?

Welcome 1974. Sorry I missed you at the Rock in NJ.
When you do make it to Buffalo, just don't be too disappointed when you see the Peace Bridge. It's kinda hard to compete with that crazy bridge you live near.
What one are you referring to? Rail Bridge?? There is another road bridge being built and is due to open in september. The previous road bridge opened in 1964 and is now needing major repairs.

That's the first one ever taken of him in our uniform, right? From his Bauer sponsorship or something the summer after we drafted him? I may be wrong.
That's the one I am sure yeah, loved the whole build up to the draft lottery and draft 2 years ago. Even the year before when we drafted Sam. Tim Murray also cracked me up with the lack of words when selecting our draft pick - will miss that :)
Welcome! Seeing Sabres fans in other parts of the world never gets old for me. I just love it.
Hopefully get to meet some folks from on here when I head to buffalo at some point. Can't come quick enough.
When at the Prudential Center for the Devils game we got our photo taken with the rest of the Sabres fans for the twitter group "Displaced Sabres Fans".

Very nice avatar.
Class picture, hopefully he is wearing the "C" on it come october

Thanks for the welcome all. love reading this forum (my lunchtime activity at work).
Tried to get my son to become a sabres fan but he chose Pittsburgh instead.
After the october trip to florida i will be trying to persuade my wife to have a holiday in western new york in the next few years :) but i may have to say we will base ourselves in toronto and travel down for a game from there.
Just so glad i have finally seen the team play, even if i had seen them during the tank years i still would have cherished it.
avatar will be added soon :)

How in the heck did you become a Sabres fan?
My hometown team (Fife Flyers - EIite Ice Hockey League) play in the same colours as Buffalo - or did back in 1995. Started getting into the NHL the year before when the Rangers won the cup and wondered which team I was going to support, when I saw the Sabres played in the same colours that was it - mind made up, simple :). Even though we changed to the colours and logo shortly after that didn't change my mind.
Many years later and lost count of the amount of money spent on sabres merchandise still love following this team
Oh and for my sins my NFL team is the Indianapolis Colts whom I saw last year also for the first time - supporting two buffalo teams would be too much :)
Looking forward to the season ahead - have to admit was disappointed to see Tim Murray let go but not Blysma. Lost count of the amount of mornings after games when I was travelling to work in a foul mood due to us losing again and the coaching style of that man!!

Hi folks,
New member to this forum, would just like to say hi.
I am for the UK and have followed the Sabres for 22 years, the reason i chose the title was because i attended my first ever sabres game when we played New Jersey on 4th February - very special night for me to finally see the team . The closest i came to this before was seeing Thomas Vanek play for Austria at the 2008 IIHF worlds.
Great to read some of the comments and differing opinions on here, i am back in the states in october when i head to Florida, praying that we are playing tampa during that time :)
My wife just shakes her head at my sabres obsession but i cant help it.

Would love to go to the WC but with Florida already booked for October, NFL game at Wembley and going to see Great Britain at the worlds in Budapest next year I am cleaned out :(
After that's over its time to start saving for my first trip to Buffalo :)
