  1. Just a heads up for @SDS: in dark mode, I can't see the text in the OP for *****.
  2. Team 5v5 CF% by center through three games: Eichel (50:22) 49.5% Johansson (37:45) 55.2% Mittelstadt (26:12) 41.9% Larsson (32:19) 68.5% 5v5 Offensive Zone Start %: Eichel 67.9% Johansson 47.4% Mittelstadt 71.4% Larsson 31.6% Not only is the Larsson line kicking opponents' ***** in shots allowed vs taken, they're doing it while starting more often in the neutral and defensive zones. Not considered: quality of competition.
  3. Cheaper than OneBuffalo.
  4. Dank.
  5. I'm not a pessimist, but by game 25 last year, on November 27th, Housley had the Sabres at 17-6-2. Krueger has the Sabres at 2-0, on October 7th. I know this poll attempts a trial of Housley, but without the context of a substantially similar roster one year later, it is too early to tell if coaching makes the difference for this team and condemns Housley. I like what I'm seeing so far.
  6. Labatt Blue in celebration of the home opener. I know it doesn't sound like much, but it's not easy to come by out here.
  7. Incredible game. Incredible night for the fans and players. I guess there's only one thing left to do...
  8. The puck support (proximity of teammates away from the puck to give targets for short passes and give close help with turnovers) at both ends was better than I've seen in years. Really good and obviously coached. Made breakouts and zone entries a thousand times more effective while hampering the opposing breakout and minimizing own-zone turnover risk.
  9. Veteran leadership with a high pedigree. Played in 94 playoff games, collected 41 points, including 11 points in 22 postseason games last year. Fresh look. I like it.
  10. I think it was done to maximize the cap benefit of the LTIRs, which will help maximize cap space for the year.
  11. Dormammu, I've come to bargain.
  12. OR DID HE... Narrator: He did. The roster moves were just cap moves to work the LTIR. He'll be suited up for the Sabres' first game.
  13. Around the NHL 2019-20: Electric Booglaoo Aplenty
  14. He likely did, but it was probably the shove that did it.
  15. I mean, hockey in high def is much better than standard def. The ability to clearly see puck movement in HD, which used to be very difficult in SD, is alone worth any cost, service, or equipment difference.
  16. Here's the on air segment: https://wgr550.radio.com/media/audio-channel/10-01-jeremy-passes-along-some-personal-news I don't know if I have the stones to listen to this at work.
  17. Jeremy announced on air and on twitter today that he and Molly lost their expected quadruplets. Horrific, terrible, terrible news. In lieu of flowers, they are requesting donations be sent to the WNY Perinatal Bereavement Network at https://www.wnypbn.org/ Reddit folks have thought to donate in amounts of $5.50, $55.00, or $550 in honor of Jeremy's family. Heartbreaking.
  18. FWIW and in my experience, HD offerings for NHL Center Ice on DirecTV are vastly superior to those for NHL Center Ice on cable. Not sure about ATT or FiOS. You can also choose to watch either the home or away broadcasts (unless, of course, it's on NBCSN or NBC or if the game is in a local blackout area). And NHL Center Ice on DirecTV includes a subscription to NHL.tv, which is nice. NHL.tv is all HD, though, and it's easy to pick which broadcasts you want.
  19. Counterpoint: Dolla dolla bill y'all.
