  1. I've been so surprised and encouraged by what the team's shown so far. Let's go, Buffalo. Great GDT, @jsb.
  2. I went to the game in January 2019 when the Sabres curb stomped the Devils 5-1. I’m wondering if the Sabres just have that team’s number, a little.
  3. At some point I thought to look for him (or, tbh, a top pick whose name I could not recall). Never noticed him.
  4. Looks like the Sabres are going to be a good hockey team this season. ... Devils might be bad?
  5. More of the same, please. Let’s go, Beaufleaux.
  6. Practice schedules are as per Rip Simonick.
  7. Okposo damn near scored, at one point.
  8. Forward thinking. Is he right? NO IDEA. But I’m betting he is.
  9. Ra Kruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
  10. We wish him well! Except when he plays against the Sabres.
  11. I'd add something like "dynamic" in there as well, but, yes -- the point is well taken.
  12. Agreed. In point of fact, Housley strikes me as ... sorta the opposite of cerebral. In further point of fact, I think RaKru might be quite cerebral. I think he really thinks things through, intensely.
  13. Jack Edwards, ladies and gentlemen. Btw, the immediate “self induced” observation from the colour guy isn’t great either.
  14. Good take(s) here. That last one especially. Now, we need a 10-game sample size from which we can draw similar hope. I'm not saying the team needs to go 7-3, etc. during that stretch. I just want to see substantially similar play from them, regardless of outcome (puck luck, PDO* being what they are). * PDO is the combined sum of a team's (or a player's while on ice) shooting percentage and save percentage. So, a PDO of 100.00 is pretty ... normal (?), since that could be a SH% of, say, 9% and a SV% of, say, 91%. Ha!
  15. Raahhhhh-KRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
  16. "Mitts" is an apt nickname.
  17. Wait. What happened to Leroy? I heartily recommend giving those guys a listen. Such a fun show. It's hard to describe how they become so linked in with certain athletes. It basically comes down to everyone having a healthy sense of humour about everything -- including themselves. Ha -- if you're on their guys, they are ride or die for you. Big Cat says so!
  18. The play he made on the puck looked very intentional. I'm sure it was. Now, he probably only meant to put it into an area where a teammate could make a play on it, in which case -- success.
  19. One more thing: That third goal.
  20. Small sample size and all (1 game; I saw about 2/3 of it on a phone screen), but I’m getting tingly wondering if RaKru is in fact gonna Juergen Klopp the roster. Sorry for the EPL (soccer) reference. The team looked better than the sum of its parts. Great word choice. RaKru’s pre-game vibe set the tone (?). No better way to celebrate a huge season opening road win than with a gratuitous potshot. It’s good to match a hockey term with a mental impression: Gaps. LFG, Sabres. L. F. GO!!
  21. 41-29 in SOG. Gotdamn.
