  1. Krebs is rounding into a pretty decent player. The mental gaffs seem to be diminishing and even though he's still not as strong on his pins as I'd like him to be, he pops back up pretty quickly and doesn't give up the play. I've seen a few instances where he's broken up odd man rushes by just putting his head down and skating hard (something Owen Power should learn).
  2. Watched a replay of the Krebs goal and you can see he delayed just a bit at the blue line to make sure he was onsides. Good hockey IQ there.
  3. The Sabres are up, eh? Okay, Fairweather Fan checking in.
  4. It's not just that they're morons, but the timber of both their voices are like chalkboard fingernails.
  5. I thought it was too many passes until they actually connected on all of them.
  6. It's a boy! 5 lb 4 oz.
  7. Update: Thursday, her water broke... or started to leak anyway. They went to the hospital. Her blood pressure was high so they took care of that. She was dilated 1 cm. They decided to keep her in the hospital. In the afternoon/evening she started having contractions and got to 3 cm and they tried to slow them down; as long as baby and mama are not in distress, it's better to let the baby develop as long as possible in utero. They're giving her steroids (to accelerate baby's lung development), antibiotics (for both mom and baby) and a lot of IV fluids (to allow her to replace the amniotic fluid that's been lost). They're closely monitoring blood pressure looking for any signs of infection. My son texted this evening that the contractions were picking up again this evening, but later texted that they were Braxton Hicks (false) contractions. They estimate the baby is already over 5 pounds, so that's a positive. The doctor said if they can get even a few more days before baby is born, it would greatly improve the baby's health at birth. So yeah. Wait. And hope and pray for the best.
  8. Hearing Joki referred to in the past tense is just bizarre. I keep forgetting he's no longer a Sabre. Maybe it's because we got a draft pick, not a player, for him.
