miles Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 I live in nj, so I dont know the local stations but found 550 on a commercial from the game last night. they said kruegar talks on Monday's with them Does this channel have a set schedule for when they only talk sabres. I dont care about football or any other sports really. It would be awesome if I could fill my work day with Sabres talk. Is there any other stations that also talk about the Sabres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any other stations that also talk about the Sabres They talk to Krueger on WGR at 8am Wednesday mornings. When football season is happening, they talk Sabres from 10am-12pm Tuesday - Friday with the Instigators. That show is better when Martin Biron participates. They talk intermitently about hockey in the mornings from 7-10am but there is a lot of football talk. 12pm-3pm is solely football talk mon-fri.

Stoner Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 When the Sabres are a hot topic, good or bad, Schopp and the Bulldog from 3 to 6 will talk a lot of hockey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrader Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 Out of curiosity, are you a Sabre fan who never actually lived in the area? I have a hard time picturing someone who did live there and is just learning that WGR exists through an in-game commercial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schopp and the Bulldog broadcast live from 716 each home gameday and have Rob Ray as a guest at 4pm on those broadcasts. They also get Jason Botterill on once a month during the season to talk all things Sabres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have three regular guests- Wed- Jeremy Roenick Thur- Elliott Friedman Fri- Darren Dreger Enjoy, Miles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past I would only see the Sabres when they played the devils, rangers flyers or islanders. the last several years I got the nhl.tv subscription so I can see the Sabres home feed. Up until now, I never cared to listen to sports radio, but I really have liked listening to the kruegar press conferences. When I saw he did a show one day a week I thought I would like to listen. This morning it dawned on me that I can listen through the internet now and be able to enjoy the Sabres more than a couple times a week I have only been to 2 Sabres games live, 1 in nj and 1 in philly. This year we are going to buffalo to be a home fan. It will be glorious Edited October 10, 2019 by miles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love telling this story because it's kind if funny. In the early/mid 90's I decided to try watching a hockey game. The islanders happened to be on, playing someone. I really loved watching it. I decided to be an islanders fan. The very next game the islanders played the Sabres. This was the first time I saw dominic hasek. I was amazed by him. So many spectacular saves. I was so excited to watch his play, I started to root for him to make good saves. By the end of the game I realized I was beginning to root for the Sabres, not the islanders. I remember watching the Sabres play a game against the devils that went into 2 or 3 in the morning. I remember cheering and my mother coming in and yelling at me because there was school. If I remember correctly there was 2 in a row that went late. One the Sabres lost 1-0, and the next they won When hasek got traded I was devastated, but the Sabres were my team Edited October 10, 2019 by miles 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matter2003 Posted October 10, 2019 Report Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) You can get the radio.com App and then it will actually send you notifications from WGR everytime a guest is going to be on the show...sometimes annoying but its a good reminder for things like that...you can also go and listen to any of the interviews they have done in the audio vault in case you can't catch them live(either through the app or on the site itself). Be warned if you listen to it through the radio.com app you will need to sit through the same lame commercials like 50 times in a 3 hour period because apparently they only have 1 or 2 they rotate on a given day.

Gotcha...well, you can always go to the website I believe on the phone and tune in live or listen to the audiovault...might need to set it to desktop settings to get it working properly where it doesn't try an send you to the radio.com app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, if you miss a interview like Krueger or Friedman, it'll be on-demand. 2 hours ago, miles said: o 2 Sabres games live, 1 in nj and 1 in philly. This year we are going to buffalo to be a home fan.

Is there any other stations that also talk about the Sabres There are also Sabres podcasts. I'm not quite up-to-date on those as some might be, but I know they're out there. Die By The Blade, Two In The Box, Charging Buffalo, Crossing Swords, Half-Hour Hockey Show (Kevin Sylvester)...there might be even more than that. You can find them all on Twitter. Here are some in my preferred order... Half-Hour Hockey Show: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/half-hour-hockey-show Beyond The Blade Podcast: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/beyond-the-blade Two In The Box Instigator Podcast: https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/chris-ostrander/the-instigator-podcast Charging Buffalo Podcast: Crossing Swords Podcast: I don't typically listen to amateur podcasts, but some of these are insightful (especially Kevin Sylvester)...you might like them. If you have an iPhone, they are all in the Podcasts app...plus some like Bob McKenzie, Puck Soup, Biscuits, Executive Suite, John Scott, Hockey Prospects, etc. Edited October 10, 2019 by OhMyDahlin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a similar story. I have a friend who is a Flyers fan. When we were in middle school (10ish yrs old), I was over at his house one day and they had the Flyers game on......against Buffalo. I saw Hasek make several acrobatic saves, including the cartwheel stuff he used to do. I’d never seen anything like it. I’ve been a Sabres fan ever since. Best goalie ever as far as I’m concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
