    Maybe I’ll watch it in the off-season.  I dislike this team so much, there could be naked supermodels performing my wildest fantasies with my favorite comedian telling the funniest jokes I’ve ever heard and I’m still not going to like it. They haven’t earned my attention. 

    That’s reasonable.  You seem witty and well-liked around these parts. I appreciate your willingness to take part in the community even though the Sabres part of this Space has let us all down. 
    My engagement here is less than I would prefer. It is because I also feel dejected in the state of the team. It makes good hockey talk harder and less fun. I lurk more than participate.  So I get it. 

    While I am disappointed in the results, the players are people too.  And off the ice, many of these guys are quite likable (from what I’ve read and seen…and from stuff like this).  It’s why I don’t mind engaging in it. But I absolutely understand people abstaining.

    Honestly he comes across much like that other twit, King 
    Charles. The arrogance towards the paying customer whom helps him afford his lifestyle while paying to see literally the worst ran franchise in almost all of sport. Get a grip 
    Terry. For gawds sake sell sell sell.

    Goodness I cannot believe I’m feeling suckered into defending the guy, but here I am. This video is the last time I heard him speak:

    Yes he has sucked as an owner of the Sabres, but he’s far from an arrogant twit.

    And he doesn’t need to own the franchises to afford his lifestyle. He was a billionaire long before he owned the Sabres.

    I’m fine with flaming the guy for the results, the hiring and firing decisions, his level of priority for the Sabres, and many other things. There’s plenty to work with.

    NT mentioned it's clear in WNY. My part of PA is socked in by clouds. I think this phenomenon is what I was asking about in the initial post...

    For anyone worried about clouds, check out what happened at Homestead National Monument in 2017:

    I recently read an article that said certain cloud formations will dissipate during an eclipse...so you might get a wonderful view even if it appears to be cloudy conditions.  

  4. The Amerks are 7-2-0-1 in their last ten. In third place in the division with 73 pts, and 3 pts out of second.  Toronto in 4th with 71 pts and one game at hand. 
     

    ROC heating up, but still need to do some work to avoid the 4 v 5 play in round of the playoffs. The sooner Levi gets back to ROC, the better.

    I don’t get why they’re not better defensively. They have a solid group of AHL quality defensemen.

    They were good with Levi and his above average goaltending.  Systems aside, Cooley & Tokarski have been objectively bad and the run and gun offense hasn’t helped the team. They will be dangerous once Levi comes to ROC for the playoff run.

    They do. 

    Picked a bad time for us for them to string a few together.

    One saving grace here is their schedule is tough. And I mean TOUGH. The opponents are hard but it’s more than that. They have a stretch as follows:

    Road - Home - Road - Home - *Road - Home - Road 

    *represents a back to back. Back to back with travel.

    In comparison the Sabres, one time, have to come home for a single game, before heading back out on road 

    The Sabres also get the Caps twice at home in April.
