    Did we finally see a new PP set up last night?

    The Sabres went 2/4 on the PP (net 1 because of the SHG allowed).  Both goals were scored the same way on passes through the crease to an open player on the side of the net.  
     

     

    We can hope, but I need more evidence.  At least it was a new wrinkle with a totally different use of the player geometry.

    Y'all oughta make like Dennis Miller and eschew obfuscation.

    (1000 internet points if you can provide Miller's rejoinder on MNF to the fan's sign that displayed that message.)

    Look up "Johnny Carson sis boom bah" in the web browser of your choice or go to YouTube and search for "sis boom bah carnac".  If you can, find the 6:53 version that is the entire skit for context.  Seriously, it is worth you time.

    Addendum: in 8th grade, I went out as Carnac the Magnificent on Halloween. Come to think of it, in 9th grade, I went out as John Belushi's samurai, complete with gi and sabre.

    This thread is 8 years old and Ellis is still on the team. The Sabres are the Matt Ellis of NHL franchises.

    Matt Ellis was often a more competent NHLer than the Sabres had on their 3rd line for the last 12 years.  The Sabres need to improve to be the Matt Ellis of NHL franchises.

    Could be worse than being a Sabres fan, we could all live in Gaza or some other war torn nation. 

    Isn't that damning them with very faint praise?

    I am impatient because I think that this team, as constituted, should be somewhere around 8th in the conference.  Because they are not close, I infer that the problem is the coaching.  In particular, I see specialist issues, which point at the assistants.  They could change the coaches at any time.

    Don is a great guy, but the sabres need a new coach and staff.  He has miserably failed. GM bet the whole season on keeping the same team on the ice. Epic fail. Adams should fire himself. These players are young, rich and comfortable. Bring in somebody who will make them uncomfortable. Trade Adam’s precious picks for veteran help and sit the guys who make the same defensive mistakes two nights in a row.  In a league where you have to be incompetent to miss the playoffs, we are still waiting for basic nightly competence. We are tired. Terry. Baby. Sweetheart. 

    Welcome to the board!

    The elevation of Appert over the assistants is clear proof that management thinks very little of HCDG's assistants.  It appears to also be an indication of the quality of coaches willing to come to Buffalo.

    Thanks all! My baby boy was born unexpectedly at 30 weeks due to eclampsia complications. Baby Liam is doing great and is crushing each of the milestones each day. It's crazy to think he's only been with us for a week... He's already changed my life forever ❤️

    The staff at Sister's Hospital have been great to us. It's been a tough situation but everyone here has made it a bit easier for me and my family.

    Mom and baby are doing good... Dad still has his issues 😄

    If we had a heart emoji, I would give you one.
