  1. I will be there. Nobody else in our season ticket group wanted them. I figured that this may be one of the better chances to see a win this season.
  2. Why is this Nolan analytics argument cluttering up the training camp thread? :blink:
  3. I am really not interested in Grigorenko, Armia and any other offensively skilled prospect competing/battling/going in front of the net etc... Until I see that they show they have the ability to score at the NHL level, they are useless to me. Some guys have the ability to raise their skills to the NHL level, and others reach their potential at the amateur level. We will see with them. PS I may be in the minority, but I didn't see much of a different Grigs last night, than the one we have seen the last two years.
  4. I am easily annoyed when a business can't get customer things(in this case fans) correct. They open practice to the public, print out sheets with player names/number, then they come out in practice jerseys with neither. I stayed 15 minutes this morning and then left. My advice to anyone interested in going, don't bother.
  5. Can Grigorenko EVER skate an entire shift without falling to the ice? For such a big guy, he is not strong on his skates AT ALL.
  6. I think he is everything the Sabres need in a 3rd line center. He has size, speed, is a good defensive player, will play the body, and at the same time chip in 15-20 goals and 40-45 points a year. It is a perfect fit to me.
  7. I want Girgensons to play center all season. Don't screw around and play him on the wing again. He is going to be the Sabres 3rd line center for 10+ years. The sooner he gets accustomed to that role, the better.
  8. Can summer please come back to WNY at least for the odd day here or there?
  9. ...and IMO any improvement to the defense and forwards will be offset by the goaltending which will be below average this year no matter who is in net.
  10. I thought I read that none of it(rinks, parking, tim's & 716) will be ready until late October.
  11. ...but if the Sabres went undefeated and won the tourney, it would be "see...we have the best prospects of all organizations" ;)
  12. Can you imagine Pegula's legacy if the Bills win a SB AND the Sabres a Cup under his ownership?
  13. Stupid next door neighbors who could not care less about their landscaping(or mowing the grass unless it is a week or more beyond needing a cutting). These idiots actually paid a landscaper to come in and redo the landscaping in front of their house this spring. They then proceeded to ignore doing any maintenance(all it takes is an hour a week for an area this small). It is now full of weeds. Same people that have had scrap lumber(remnants of an old swing set) laying against their deck for two years now. Throw it out! Have some f***ing pride in your property. :angry: :angry: :angry:
  14. If there is an opening, I am in. Preferably gold, but will take a spot in either.
  15. What site is league on? I signed up, missed the draft, and now can't remember where it is hosted. LOL nvm, I found it. Only 1 qb drafted by computer? LOL. Thats what I get for forgetting about it.
  16. I don't know how bad it used to be(I had mine done 5 or so years ago), but being able to mix the "magic potion" with gatorade made it tolerable. I just couldn't drink the last 6 or so oz., not because of the taste, just couldn't get it down. LOL. The rest was a piece of cake seeing how you remember nothing!
  17. Sorry I missed the draft. Now it's time to see how auto draft treated me.
  18. I'll say this about an NHL team in Vegas, it would make for a great Sabres road trip once a year. I always enjoy going to see the Bills in Miami(especially if the game is in November/early December), but a combo Vegas trip/Sabres game would be AWESOME! :devil: :devil: :devil:
  19. I voted for Seattle & KC. Preferably one of the two is a relocation from South Florida.
  20. On a trip home recently, somewhere along the way, I lost the piece on the back of my Garmin GPS which in turn connects to the suction cup you attach to your windshield. Replacement on the Garmin website for this piece of plastic that costs them pennies to manufacturer...$9.95 + shipping and handling. Not much better, but I found it on Amazon for $7.95 with Prime shipping. Either way, someone is making a huge profit selling items like this. Similar experience, in the near future, we are switching our TV back to a cabinet where it will sit on the pedestal. I'll be damned if I can find it, we never used it from the get go. Replacement...anywhere between $80-$100. :censored:
  21. Considering Erie is only 90 minutes or so from Buffalo, and an OHL game would have a better atmosphere in their home rink, IMO this is much ado about nothing. That being said, I can appreciate the effort put forth by the organization to bring more hockey events to the area. Scouting combine, amateur events, prospects game, possible 2016 draft...
