  1. to me its like a relationship with a poisonous girlfriend; I can't help myself even i I know being "all in" is only going to be more painful in the long run. And I break up with her (sabres) numerous times throughout the season. But then we have a few good good games together and I start to see the possibilities and that (scary) hopeful feeling comes back- and then once my hopes are a bit elevated I get kicked in the nuts again. Currently I am sitting on the couch with a bag of (figurative) ice.
  2. I saw Gretzky get his 60th in 60 games at the Aud (against Don Edwards I believe), I know its not really a thing but so what - haha. I remember sitting in the golds and my memory still cannot believe how crisp and vivid those iconic EDM jerseys were back then. Plus to see Gretzky that close back then was akin to seeing a god; not to mention his plethora of future hall of fame teammates. Playing at the Aud on Super Sunday was fun also; and I played one game before sabres open practice when they used to do that at the aud. our team got the Bruins locker room from the night before where I learned - at least back then - that NHL players only use a role of tape once and then leave it. Pretty sure I brought about 12 rolls of tape home with me - all yellow or white. I was playing for West Seneca so that worked πŸ˜†
  3. Maybe because I watched Carter Hart his entire WHL career (I live near Everett unfortunately) and saw probably 25 games in person during his junior career - but I am less afraid of this kid than a lot of others out there. He backed up his WHL goalie of the year honors...with a another one. Yea its WHL - but is analogous to Levi / NCAA honors. Hart's NHL career numbers are over .900 on a mostly crap team and Risto. He plays a lot of games. And would probably benefit from a new team not to mention just playing for Donny vs. Torts. UPL, Murray, and a second works for me. Murray wont ever pass Greenway and probably deserves some NHL looks after a very solid year in Roch.
  4. 1879-1636-409-185 (https://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/BUF/history.html) is the sabres all time record....so add at least 98 (82 + 4 series sweeps to the cup)
  5. my math might be a little off but Olofsson is about -14 since his last goal which was on January 26th. That isnt great.
  6. ESPN+ as I live out of market. Someday I will see a post game show πŸ˜†
  7. true - but guessing he might not have cleared waivers with Greenway on his way...a 7th is better than what we got for Fitzgerald.
  8. Because they arent allowed to take their Xbox consoles on the road with them, but at home Casey and his couch is home to all night sessions of whatever....insert whatever you want in place of the xbox, but when on the road only thing they have to do is play hockey; comparted to home games and being at home - too many distractions. Something along the lines of this would be my guess....I have no idea and am just guessing.....
  9. + 1 for Maintenance Day....and sabres live every once in a while. Ive tried pretty much all the other ones listed and Maintenance Day is the only hockey one I make sure to listen to each week.
  10. I dont have a ton to add beyond what everyone else mentioned, but skinner is definitely a positive asset to this team. I remember thinking at the time of Ralphie boy coaching that I gave skinner a lot of credit for keeping his mouth. Compare his public persona vs. someone else's from that team🍎 . Its been a messy 11 years, but it sure is nice to be genuinely excited for this team again.
  11. I vote they miss, but I sure would love to be wrong on this one. Casey and goallesson are useless at 5v5 and we dont have the consistent goaltending nor defensive depth. Not sure we can win with two lines (and one a huge liability to put on the ice). Maybe a year and a move or two away....πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ
  12. maybe this is what we would have looked like in the LaFontaine, Mogilny, Chuck (Dale and Andy) years if we didnt have Hasek. But agree stats are pointing a big 'ole finger at goaltending.
  13. i agree with the idea of sending Krebs down; besides his glaring turnovers he hasnt really done much for the sabres. His play is outmatched and he seems overwhelmed when he is on the ice in most cases. i agree with the idea of sending Krebs down; besides his glaring turnovers he hasnt really done much for the sabres.
