iOh so tempting... but Ill pass... I'm softening a bit in my older age but, common, easy with the slow pitch.. PS Beer league game tonight and sounds like we have 10.  Last game we had 6 and lost on a last second goal.  Most of our team was grateful, no way we wanted overtime...

My first question is anybody planning to attend a Sabres game in California next year? I plan on taking the family to all three since we will finally be back in the states, hopefully for good.

Are you coming up on your 20?

No but it sounds like you're coming home so I'm pumped for you.

Yeah. I hit 17 this summer and reenlisted last summer (at 16) for the last four.

Congratulations!  Hopefully it’s smooth sailing the last few years for you. I have a lot of respect for the guys who retire.

Cool man. I’ll keep that in mind as the clock is ticking.

Always open to coffee with a fellow Sabres fan.

You know it's summer (?) when the fantastic (really ? @SABRES 0311) conversation going on has nothing to do with the NHL.

(where the heck is that beer thingie when you really need it?) ... (anyway, put 2 of them right here)

Well everyday is one closer to Sabres hockey I suppose. And there’s baseball. Let’s not forget the playoffs seem exciting this year and we will have draft day speculations to look forward to.

Your conversation going on now is far more interesting than all that other stuff you listed above.

There are lots and lots of Sabres fan transplants in SoCal; it'll be easy to find us.  The closest games to Pendleton will be Anaheim (Honda Center) and Los Angeles (Staples Center).  The Sabres fans usually pregame at JT Schmid's across the street from the Honda Center and in/around an area known as LA Live around Staples Center.  Note that all three west coast games (and sometimes PHX) are usually played in the same compacted road trip for the Sabres, so it's sometimes tricky to go catch them all.  LA and Anaheim are almost always played as a back-to-back with SJ played two or three days away from those games.

Depending on where you're living, don't discount taking the fam to an SD Gulls or Ontario Reign game.  If you or the wife like wine, there's no excuse not to do a weekend around Temecula.  If you're a science nerd, beyond all the museums and zoos in town in LA and SD, go check out the Palomar Observatory.

Fishing tours leave oceanside harbor and you have to go out to Catalina Island... Also my favorite morning coffee place is near Swami's "the Java Hut" in Encinitas, then watch the surfers on a lazy afternoon. Plus seeing a few of your posts... pretty good gun show at DelMar race track every year.

Kings will not. They are old, slow, cap stressed and lacking in prospects. If he makes them an instant success it'd be a miracle. 

I didn't actually believe it, just wanted to throw a "because buffalo" situation out there.... Looonggg summer ??
