You said Quinn touched the puck above the end line so maybe the linesman deemed that the puck was not going to cross the line.

I haven't seen the play, but hybrid icing must be a nightmare at times for the linesmen.

I don't know if I want a dino nugget or a lollipop. @Doohicksie

You said they called it a loss.

But they were right?

Always apologizing for this team, GM and owner. Always. You just might be Mr. Only One Team Wins the Cup Pegula.

Like you've never yanked a pen from its moorings. You have two and a half cents of the first nickel you ever made!

Good. I need a pen.

inkman is trampling, bruh. I love it. Trampling... see what I did there?

Where is the game?

The great philosopher (and possibly great wrestler) @SDSonce opined that in the NHL fans treat each game discretely as a single season. I think it will be that way until the end of time (Feb. 2025).

By playing well enough do you mean having a decent record? I am guessing that's what you're saying. Yes it's a little early to fret over one game vis a vis making the playoffs. They are not in a terrible spot, nor a good one. 23 points in 22 games is not enough.

Mother Nature has privately told Her advisors he will not.

That's it, Doc! Over the hill went the swords of two...oo...oo men!

Maybe the goalie made it look easy, but it seemed more quantity than quality. He didn't shut out a losing mentality among many fans tho. Gotta score there, Ras. Overall a wasted opportunity to get the average fan behind you. This team has no room for moral victories.

Sabres vs. Wild? Hot take: first game back has no statistical bearing and should not be used as an excuse for... ya know. I'll give it to ya for free, Caveman.

Treat yourself to a round of sausage!

Getting ahead of the story is a pretty smart move tho.

I'm sure there are Oscar Mayer hot dog fans who would love to find out the last time they checked the tire pressure on the Wiener Mobile. In other news we might just have a non terrible hockey team to focus our attention on this season.

It's odd. That's all. This is a place for discussion of the Buffalo Sabres. It's an entertainment product. Millions of things go into that product that consumers of that product should have no earthly interest in. Perhaps we need a website that estimates the cost of uniforms for security personnel in all arenas, which teams compensate and what percentage, etc.

I'll ask again... why would anyone care about this?

Good for him, maybe. But in grabbing one of the patrons (technically assault?) and issuing what could be perceived as a threat, his hands aren't clean. Short of someone's life being in danger, you let the staff handle it or call 911. I'm sure Biz will not be charged, being a former NHL player. You or I...

Buzzed?

He's on an island with GODD, Eleven, JFK and Chuck Woolery.
