They're playing our song!

I wonder if the lockerroom has airport-style insurance for those Sabres who will be going to the front of the net?

It's almost like there's no there there.

Maybe be a professional and not rely on old wives tale noxious fumes.

In Ottawa tradition, Philly plays a Sabres anthem. It never worked well for the Sens.

Does one have to be a bearded ginger to play for the Flyers?

Dude keeps fallin

If only one could have predicted such a thing during that interview after he became a Sabre.

3.75 @ 4.856 You people.

This isn't a good day. Montour wasn't the problem. We're not better. No problem has been solved. Not yet. Still waiting.

If it was 1996, Rick would yodel his name after a goal. With Dan, we'll get, "Riikola drops one in... 10 second pause... Buffalo trails by two." Pass. He's a very good player. It's a case of study of what has been wrong with Terry's handling of this franchise.

I always thought of it as his Taking the SAT and Getting to the Math Section look.

Jack's not going to leave because Ralph WAS the head coach. That makes no sense.

Yep, everything was fine before Ralph got here. His short stint set back the franchise five years. Say a lot of things about Ralph, but the statement is ludicrous — mainly because of how quickly other franchises turn things around and how easy it should be to get back and have "success" in a league where half the teams get in. Hell, just look at Granato's results so far. How is he possibly overcoming what Krueger wrought?

No one's going to remember Ralph in five years and if the Sabres are still a trainwreck, there will be plenty of bigger villains.

If he confirmed it, I don't see the need to credit the first person to have the story. When is that ever done? I don't see that tweet as Friedman's confirmation.

Can you imagine getting that call? Good for him. Bad for Mrs. Brawndo. Is it me or is it slimy for Friedman to put out that tweet?

So dramatic. Look up the Louis C.K. bit about some dude describing a chance meeting with an acquaintance as "hilarious." So funny it risked destroying the person's mind. RaKru set back the franchise five years? Amazing!

I tell ya, Dan shocked me last night, because he's usually not one to take chances. But the creative furnace in that head finally churned out something brilliant and original. Dahlin and Jokiharju: The Dynamic Duo!

"See you in September, one block in THAT direction!"

Harrington sucked that one time.

Zamfir? Anyone?

Had to chuckle at the Washington goalie turning to look at Mittelstadt as he skated into the corner after his goal. "Damn, who was that?" Me? I'm not leering at Casey like dat until he's doing it this October in games that mean something. Sorry to be a wet blanket. I've been here wayyyyyy too many times.

That's a real fear. And a lot of the fan base and media are pumping the tires for exactly this scenario. Be careful what you wish for.
