This seems like the year to trade the pick. They just committed to winning now. They need veteran help. They already have a bunch of prospects. If they don't trade it, the guy that could be intriguing is Iginla.

We used stickers to mark the best channel locations. VHF channels using the older names: Buffalo had channels 2 (WGR/NBC), 4 (WBEN/CBS), 7 (WKBW/ABC), and Canadian channels were 5, 9, 11 - I think the call letters were CTV, CBC, CHCH but I can't recall which was which anymore. UHF channels were 17 (PBS) and then they added 29 (Local stuff, WNED) I used to watch HNIC and the Hamilton Red Wings OHL. Could not get enough. Canadian Pro wrestling was also a must.

I went to that one. I thought we would win the Cup that year. Bernie Parent in goal was the difference,

Carolina PP looks like the Sabres.

Maybe at the bar with Playfair and Dudley.

Boston took a 3-0 lead last against FLA and then lost 4 straight. This was one game, anything can happen. That said, I do think Boston could win this series.

No way was Maroon signing with Buffalo in 2019-2010. He signs with contenders, and then gives them a boost in the playoffs when the whistles are put away and the game play fits his style.

Sorry, but this is for Members Only ...

I was in downtown Buffalo last year when the Bandits won the championship. Great crowds of happy people everywhere. I would definitely go if I was in town.

I am well aware of the role of Academics in this country. I don't blindly dismiss them and I don't look at them as hero's either. I thought the Ted Talk was good. He made some interesting points and a few that made me cringe. Lets just say I do not agree with every interpretation of the data that he makes in his 19 minute segment were he spends maybe 2 minutes on each topic. Some things are far more complex than the limited set of data he shows could explain. Politicians in the US today continue to disappoint me. Far too often you see that gaining wealth and power come before service to the people, and too many are willing to blindly support their party, and the special interests that fund them, to achieve their personal goals. National politics is a sport for the wealthiest, not the smartest.

I am down 23 pounds since January. I have been doing weight training, walking, golf, eliminating bad food, almost no sweets/deserts, and cutting way back on alcohol. I am 65, retired for 3 years, and man do I feel great. Gonna keep it going.

Some of what he says is true, and some of it is complete BS. Although his criticism on higher education is refreshing to hear, as are his comments on national debt. If only everyone could work at elite universities, look back 20 to 40+ years, and then tell people what should have been done.

This all sound like petty BS. UPL had not earned a thing up until late January' 24, and neither did Levi for that matter. None of this should impact contract negotiations unless Adams lets it. I did hear grumblings that last season some players were upset that Levi was plugged in for those late season games, and UPL was out. Is this team cliquey or what?

WTF? Why should he care about Joker getting moved? Why hopefully. Keep the better of the two.

What? This is soft and more soft. When did he get skipped over? The Sabres refused to bring in a real NHL for several seasons waiting for someone to take the job.

Taveres to Buffalo for Levi and Clifton???? How about for Tokarski and Clague?

While I enjoy the Leaves losing again, I am reminded of Terry Pegula, and the reason for the Buffalo Sabres existence.

I assume you are talking about the Sabres? I have no doubt that the Sabres qualify as the worst NHL franchise since Nov 12, 2011. What’s wrong with the fans?

Wow. Boston gets a cheeser. whoa.

come on Rat, get into the game!

So far, Adams has implemented some form of “don’t block the kids” for 3 straight years. You just said that yourself. So it is a very real thing and of course it’s lessening with each year as more of his kids get inserted. My biggerst issue with “no blocking” is the handing of goaltending were he purposely left a huge door open for Levi But it was there last year and our goaltending was sub standard until UPL emerged. The “not blocking” is a real reason why this team missed the playoff in each of the last two season. History has been recordered, annd Adam’s gets no quarter until it’s earned.

Yeah, I get that. I too shook my head at the "blockers" concept. ROR never really said he wanted out did he? Even though he probably did want out. The Sabres did stupid, and got rid of a guy that hates losing. He was just sick of losing.

No. He was out there right to the end and he set up a good attempt at a tying goal. Playing with two lifetime 3rd line grinders in Nyquist and Sissons. All are 30+. It shows in the playoffs that having grown men on the team helps. We need more. What’s wrong with Canada having teams alive? It’s their top sport.

The hatred of Toronto started the day Imlach was signed as Coach and GM, with was essentially Day 1. We kicked their Azz so many times they fled to the Norris Division, a clearly easier division at the time it was created. That still didn’t help them.

Vancouver wins the series on the road with a kid in net.
