I almost never post but lurk a lot. It’s hard for me to trust that this team is turning a corner, they have broken that trust so many times over the last many years. But they look so good recently. Jost is a treasure so far, I love what he brings. And Mitts actually is contributing tonight! I didn’t hate the penalty he took and he’s been INVOLVED. May be a mirage but I will take it tonight.

Here’s how you beat Tom Brady. Pay the network camera crew to always aim their camera five yards behind Brady, and make sure he knows it. Every time the ball is snapped, Narcissus Tom will keep retreating to make sure he’s in the center of everyone’s TV screen.

Eichel: “they must be booing cuz they wish I was still here” Maybe the people who were cheering were cheering cuz they’re glad you’re GONE!

Good thing Dunleavy isn’t making the call for #10,000!!!

Uh... Cozens?

I’m totally serious in asking this question... do we think the Sabres could actually go the rest of the season without a win of any kind? I think it’s unlikely but very possible. what a season...

The key to following the sabres is to only watch three minutes of any one game. They probably will only give up one or two goals in that short stretch and there could be the illusion that they could still win. If you’re drunk beforehand.

Skinner looks like he’s playing without a stick

Man, skinner no longer looks like a goal-scorer.

Sabres score early. Predict a 6-1 loss.

I don’t post often but just had to drop in to say... This team SUCKS!!! How we could go into this season without finding an adequate backup goalie is mind-boggling.

Thanks for posting this! Can’t wait to watch! RJ looks like a kid! Looks a bit like Captain Kangaroo!!!

I’ve kind of forgotten how much I liked Afinogenov back then.

Campbell’s famous destruction of Umberger!!!

11/5/05? Sabres didn’t play Washington on that date. I’m confused.

Ryan Miller in goal?

Brandon Montour is 16 days old today! Hope he grows up to play for the Sabres!

Long marathon sex sessions are ALWAYS a good substitute for Sabre’s hockey!!!

That’s terrifying!

Thanks for all the discussion. To me, the need for a better backup goalie is the most easily addressed. The tough one is our lack of a real solid 2c. That move, or lack thereof, will decide JBot’s future - if he even HAS a future...

I’m a new guy around here, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. How realistic is it to think we can get a better backup goalie, a good 2c, and maybe a physical defensive defenseman this offseason? Salary cap considerations included.

The masochist in me tells me to watch this game tonight. The sadist part hopes that all of you folks watch, too!

I don’t mean to derail the thread, but what does everyone here think of the WGR guys? I personally can’t listen to them for more than a few minutes, speaking of the morning show and especially Schopp. Schopp has this smug attitude and presents himself as some genius who’s bored with sports and just says things to stir people up.

Thanks everyone! Wednesday’s Colorado game will tell us a lot about whether or not we are idiots for being buyers today, though we didn’t give up much to “buy”.

Hi everyone, just joined the site after lurking this year. I’ve been a fan for many years and figured I should occasionally throw in my two cents. Followed the deadline deals and have to say I like both trades. Pittsburgh must think Sheary can revert to his old form from Penguin days, otherwise can’t understand why they’d make this trade today.
