Samson's Flow

Thanks all! My baby boy was born unexpectedly at 30 weeks due to eclampsia complications. Baby Liam is doing great and is crushing each of the milestones each day. It's crazy to think he's only been with us for a week... He's already changed my life forever ❤️ The staff at Sister's Hospital have been great to us. It's been a tough situation but everyone here has made it a bit easier for me and my family. Mom and baby are doing good... Dad still has his issues 😄

I know I haven't posted in years but I keep reading you guys. My wife and I have our son in the NICU at Sister's Hospital. Just saw Tage in the lobby getting his parking validated and said hello. Sister's Hospital is one of the primary Labor & Delivery hospitals in WNY. My educated guess would be his wife went into labor/his absence is baby related. Wish him well 🙏

Nope still need to gargle the Chiefs nuts. He's contractually obligated...

There's no way that Morse held on that play. Total BS. Agreed that the roughing was also a bit weak

I'm still lurking just don't have the free time I used to in order to be active here. I'd need to have a favorite player on the Sabres in order to change my name again... not the most inspiring bunch the last few years

Yeah even picking my namesake to align with a young top-5 pick didn't seem to stop the curse... anyone else y'all want to get off the team? 😆 Nowadays I'm mostly rooting for the (Buffalo) Blue Jays and looking forward to Bills season. The Sabres are a tough team to follow right now.

He probably meant "The Borgias". It was a series on Showtime about the rise of a family in Renaissance Italy

Duda - that's a fair point. There was still a lot of questions around the firing of JBott and the 180* change from Kim's vote of confidence a few weeks ago. There should have been a JBott firing presser with Terry/Kim and then a separate Adams/RaKru introductory presser focused on team direction and strategy.

It's almost like Kevyn Adams was identified not for his personnel experience or hockey knowledge, but because he's the perfect cross section of professional looking/articulate/local/not JBott that can smile and tell the fans everything will be alright. i.e. Pegulas realize the fans hate JBott -- let's give them Kevyn he's a great dude ?

Welp. That was the least encouraging press conference I can remember watching. At a time when we should be excited that Botterill is gone, we come to find out he's replaced by Adams who's only qualifications seem to be that he's a nice guy and has worked with Terry/Kim for nearly 10 years. There was no talk of strategy or how the management team intends to fix the terrible product that has continued to define Buffalo Sabres hockey. I think our only chance is RaKru as he sounded like the only competent hockey guy there, but even then I think he is going to realize he can't be the coach, GM and President of Hockey Ops all at the same time. Every time Terry or Kim are involved in a press conference they sound like the kid who didn't do the homework and is trying to b.s. the answer. They have no idea how to run a successful hockey organization and it is blatantly apparent.

It doesn't help that the Yankees (8 hours away) have a dedicated network carried on our WNY cable, and the Blue Jays (1 1/2-2 hours away) are not carried locally. I'm a WNY Blue Jays fan and I can only watch a handful of games a year without paying for MLB.tv Same reason there were a ton of Braves fans a generation ago - TBS/TNT carried almost all of their games.

Yeah this is a prep trade for something else IMO. This is a solid over-ager in the AHL to allow us to backfill depth if needed.

24 yr old center with 2 years of NHL experience. He's an RFA this year. Has played all the games the last 2 years in the NHL, except for recently where he was DTD with an injury.

I can't imagine how much harder it would be to care if I was out-of-market and had to pay extra to watch the games. I will always say the Sabres are my team when asked, but I'm to the point where I'm 50/50 to even tune in on game nights. It's the same reason I barely post here anymore, even though I love the community here. The Sabres are an embarrassingly poorly run organization.

*Conversation with my wife, I say do we bother to check the score of the game* Her: I haven't looked yet, so you might as well check Me: Turns to MSG... intermission show says down 3-1 after one. Together: Well at least they got one. *changes channel* We've come to the point of total apathy. Congrats Terry.
