Dreams Burn Down

What a slick mask!

Good on TT having Dahlin's back and giving 7 some business.

That was some nifty passing on the way to that goal.

Wow. Tage is back!

There's the TT howitzer we've been missing.

Opposing net front presence stymied us again.

Nice one, JJ! Power looked slick with the start there.

After a large dip in a rollercoaster, it goes up again, right? Right?!

I have lost significant interest in hockey, and by proxy, the Sabres during this playoff drought. I remember being a rabid hockey fan watching high school hockey games on channel 10 in the International Cable days. Then, there was rabbit-eared Canadian college hockey on CHCH and CBLT. Then US College hockey became available and then more NHL games with ESPN, etc. I simply could not watch enough of the sport I loved. That's unfortunately no longer the case. The Sabres are responsible for this. However, they have always been and continue to be my sporting love. I credit SabreSpace with helping to rekindle my interest in hockey. I notice that, when I have taken extended breaks from this board, my interest in hockey is almost nonexistent. So, at least there is that. Will my love for the game and the Sabres be similar to years ago if they turn things around? I do not know, but I would love to find out.

Have we ever left? 😉

My better half just walked past the room and said, "You're still watching that ****?"

That incensed me. More effort into getting back in time to cover his man would have been appreciated instead.

The Sabres were buzzing all over the place to start the game. Now, they appear demoralized.

Tuch! That is what we needed.

Gourde owned our blue paint on that goal.

Clifton drops the hammer.

My thoughts are with you.

Skinner five-holed Daccord. Keep the rubber flying at that guy.

I would pay to see this.

We need as much grit and sandpaper on this team as possible. Is Greenway the second coming of Keith Primeau? Of course not, but he's still a keeper for now.

My grandfather would have wholeheartedly approved of this.

Disjointed.

51 here. First Sabres game was 14-2 win over the Capitals in December 1975. I remember asking my dad if all the games were like that and he laughed and said, "No, not all of them."

I agree. After some of the horrible football the Bills have played at points of this season, one thing that cannot be questioned is their resiliency. They've clawed their way back into a situation where they now control their own destiny. The division championship is all that matters and all that should matter to those 53 players tonight.
