Lost in space?

RaKru!

Brief flurry of hockey.

FIIIIIRES ONE!

Mike H. has a good one all ready to go.

Dan can really frost a turd.

Dahlin is feelin' it.

TP time.

When did you start caring about that?

Montour seemed frozen after that hit.

Mediocre.

See, that shot by Sam needs to go in. No bad luck involved.

The Sabres are really trying again.

Good post. But, no offense, I want to cut myself.

I couldn't watch last night but watched the last 10 minutes today with a particular focus on Eichel. He was fine. A nice Eichel-ish rush up ice and I think he hit the post. Solid keep in at the line. He tipped a shot just over the net from a bad angle — I think that was the shift Hall carried the puck in and kept the puck. That stood out to me as an illustration of what some folks are talking about. Jack's not yet the guy I expect to do something when it counts. (Up for debate: is that a comment on Jack, on me, or on the franchise — so few of their games put Eichel in a position to "come up big.")

You just wait 7 to 10 years! (See also: Dahlin thread.)

Is Tom Selleck the new Wilford Brimley?

Younger folks won't know, but he was a major cultural phenomenon. His nightly show on CNN was often must-watch. I called his radio show once to talk about Sports Channel America's coverage of the NHL. He wasn't interested in talking about it. Can't blame him.

Rick said no one's traveling.

Every team has the talent and chances. Including the 1975 Caps and the 2014 Sabres. This is professional hockey. Results matter.

This era. And it's the biggest problem any team/player can have. It goes to talent, not always luck.

You've been watching the Sabres too long.
