KO needed that. Maybe it wakes him up.

This Power Play stuff is suppose to be an advantage for the Sabres, right?

You have been here a long time so I will defer to your history lesson. As to the "genius posters" I am unaffected by their comments. My tinfoil barrier allows me to make up my own mind. I will keep an eye open for these "misses" and post accordingly. Seriously though, it seems a lot of Sabres players compared to some other teams are too tight or maybe think too much when they shoot.

I don't think you are off base here at all. They are shooting wide or over the top on way too many good scoring chances.

Win.......You.......Must.

5 Head Coaches in 6.1 years is so bad but I agree something has to change............................again. The team skated tonight like they had ankle weights strapped on and their sticks were made out of rubber.

This is embarrassing.

Well he is going to be 22 in a couple of weeks. Way past his prime! I think I need another layer of tinfoil.

Well done Sabres! That's 2 fun games to watch in a row. Keep it up.

Would of been nice for Sam.

Jack, Sheary and Berglund all had near miss goals that period too. I'm loving it!

Pommer will be gone soon enough. Kyle speaking between periods is more of a concern. I'm hoping he can "find another gear" this year and keep up. That would help a lot. Yeah, those old guy cancer survivors and hippies really pi$$ me off.

That's the Jack we want to see!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice to see how Hutton helps his D out with his stick.

Set my TV volume to 26. Dahlin gets his first NHL goal today!

It's that pesky Uber cost to the rink from Colorado that's a killer!

Now that game was worth the $1.95 for Center Ice.

Hello Carter Hutton! Call a cop!!!!!!!! LOL

Get's off a plane, picks up a stick and plays! So much for the players need to "gel" stuff. Just play some Hockey guys! Congrats to Sheary! Welcome to Buffalo!

This is Jack's team now. If he succeeds the team will do much better. If he doesn't they won't. Jack did not have a good game yesterday. Let's hope the next game is better.

Spanked a Big Ten in their own stadium, albeit Rutgers. Go Bulls

A long layover at O'Hare?

I wasn't sure if Rochester was an option. Cool. Thanks.

Is Hunwick's injury bad enough to keep him out for the start of the season? What do they do with him when he is healthy?
