Buffalo pro sports have me too beaten down at the moment. I am taking this one off tonight. Good luck to the team, and to the poor souls who watch it.
I wish someone in the Sabres organization could read this. No clearer sign of the ongoing, abject misery this team has bestowed upon its fans. Forget getting fannies in the seats at KBC. People won't even bother watching from the comfort of their own living room.

Tragic accident.

Listening to that gentleman’s account and seeing the pics the driver most likely sped toward or through the toll booths. If not, the driver was going against traffic exiting the inspection stations - and that would have been a much bigger problem. Whatever the final determination is, this incident would have been much more deadly if it happened on a summer afternoon. Lastly, if this was a terrorist event it was the worst planned and executed in the history of mankind.

I'm sitting in Sec 31 Row A seat 7, right on the glass.
I’ll find out the seat info. Went to the Amtrak’s game last season and were sitting 3 rows from the glass about 6 feet off the goalies left shoulder. Will keep you posted.

I bought a ticket for the game in Springfield Dec 13. I'll be right behind the Amerks-shoot-twice goal.
I don't have any Amerks gear, so I'll probably wear my black Goathead.
@PromoTheRobot I'm planning to be at that game also. And if the seats are the same as last year (clients' season tix) I'll be sitting very near your seats. Will let you know as the time nears. Would be great to meet up. Trying to keep an eye on which kids will be with ROC v. the big club by then.

I guess I’ll have to wait until next year. Or the year after that. Or the year …
Oh, never mind. I’ll just change my screen name.

It’s Appert. 22nd defensively in the league last year. 30th the year before. They turn the puck over nonstop, and they play a very passive style defensively. They collapse very low, never pressure the puck carrier. It results in a lot of zone time for the opponent, lots of free shots from the point, and tons of rebounds. That’s just my amateur opinion, but people should take note next time they watch the Amerks how passive they play defensively. It’s clearly doesn’t work, and Appert is either too stubborn to adjust, or the Sabres are mandating they play this terrible style.
So … a true feeder system preparing for the big club.

I turned the game off at half time and went to bed. Not because I didn't think they could win. I assumed they would. But I just don't care about this team any longer. And I never thought that was possible having watched games and suffering through some stretches of the worst football since the team's inception. What an immense disappointment. Maybe I'm just getting old.

It's not the .500 pace that has me wondering about Granato. Its the way they are playing. How many of the 15 games to date have the Sabres looked like a legitimate playoff team? Why do many of the same issues persist? This is largely the same roster.
Having written that I wouldn't pull the plug on Granato right now. It's too early. But if I was Czar of Buffalo hockey I would let Granato know that he's got until January 27th to show that he can put this team into a solid playoff position. If the Sabres are still floundering with a third of the season remaining it's highly unlikely they will turn things around and suddenly look like one of the top 8 in the East.
Why January 27th? There's a 9 or 10 day break in the schedule (ASG break I assume?) to bring in a new coach and get moving with changes. More importantly, I want that new coach and staff implementing their systems and evaluating who stays and who needs to go this season. I don't want to see the team wait until the off season then hear that in 24-25 we need to give it 30 or 40 games for the new coach to implement his systems, philosophies and identity. We need to hit the ground running next season if this one ends in disappointment yet again.

Do people rely on SS for TV info? It might not even be necessary.

I realize this is totally irrational but I look at the Sabres next seven games as A-H-A-H-A-A-A. The difference is so stark in the way they play at home versus the road and I see 5-2. Forget the crowd but isn't there supposed to be some tactical advantage to playing at home?

Some PBP announcers too … that RJ fella comes to mind.
I’m now going to crawl out of the rabbit hole of unimportant issues.

The Office of Player Nickname Mediation suggests RJo. Under no circumstances can it be RJ. None.

San Jose is horrible.
They are about to be 0-10-1, have 12 goals so far, lost their last game 10-1, losing tonight 8-2
So who do the Sharks have that KA should be talking to them about to help the Sabres? Certainly SJ seems to be in a mode of wanting to add some prospects.

Are you talking about the girl who flew from the UK to Boston. Then a ride from Boston to Buffalo.
I don’t believe so but THAT would be horrible.

Not going back to look it up. But I REALLY feel sorry for whoever it was that spent a good part of the day on a bus to watch this display. I sure hope the food made the trip worthwhile. Seriously, sorry.

Just tried to snarf a free trial on a streaming service that carry NHL Nerwork for tonight and tomorrow. Only two - Sling and Fubo - have it. Sling only offers discount on the first month. Fubo has a 7-day free trial. Gave them a different email address and different credit card info than before. Kept getting denied. They must be on to the fact I did a free trial previously to watch the World Juniors, I think. Bastards outsmarted me. Radio then next day replay on ESPN+. ☹️

Ya, I think this is intentional.
Canucks the biggest surprise so far this year? Seems like Tochet has them bought in.
Leafs Bruins game was very good tonight. Bruins pulled it off with 3 AHL D call ups in the line up. Go figure.
Got to watch that game last night because it wasn’t on NESN or otherwise blacked out. My goodness do the Bruins play great defense, and that includes the forwards, in front of their goaltender. Their structure is quite good. I can see why their Dmen can be interchangeable. I bet they don’t give up many ‘cheapies’. And yes, it pains me to write all that

And they may not get another if they remain committed to ‘dump in and retreat’
