No, no, you have to see him being interviewed these days.

The Sabres are so set for goalies it is laughable. The goalie depth alone ought to attract some younger free agents.

OMG, McBain gets a goal...there goes the tank.

My wide says Mitchell is a hotty, along with Drew. She also says Rasmus looks like Draco.

So, I told my wife I thought she might find Lieuwen sexy looking, but she says no. Isn't he handsome?

They made that look easy, like they're pros.

Chemistry is hhhhhuuuuuggggeee-ah. Seriously, the stuff that turns me on, in a manly way, is the signs of good chemistry. There were several unusual signs tonight, in my opinion, which give me "hope": -Scott sending Conacher into the penalty box with his helmet (rather than Conacher's). -Hackett smacking Ruhwedel's fanny, during the game, right after the play near the end where Chad dove to make the save (the fact that Hackett felt compelled to do that while the play hadn't yet exited the zone makes it unusual). -Ennis and Stafford several times storming the net and looking like they knew what they were doing. There were a few more I noted, which I forget now, but, again, I like that stuff and it's what a team in the Sabres' position needs right now.

I've pretty much watched them all, though a few I may have picked up at the second period due to things like karate or children's plays.

...wow, Hackett is Miller-like emo! He's like a cozy, old pair of slippers.

I'll have to search out the psych predictions I made on how different players would respond to Nolan being their coach...IIRC I was pretty close for most players I analyzed.

I will have to be the voice of dissent here and say that of the four Sabres' goalies, Hackett seemed the least in control. He left a lot of open space that, thankfully, the D was right there to compensate for. Not sure what you'd call his style, but he was definitely on the ice a lot and dropped early and often. It's way too soon to make any judgments, of course, so maybe we'll see more of him on the road here.

Hackett has benefited from a lot of heads-up D after the Oilers' goal.

I kind of like the late games.

Dunleavy doesn't sound all too confident the Sabres can hang on to the lead.

Ennis is trying to score in front of his friends and family, and Conacher upped the ante.

He's the kind of player Nolan likes. One thing that may tie Nolan and GMTM together is that they both seem to look for similar characteristics in players.

Yay! Conacher's second as a Sabre. He's earned it.

Oh, I'm convinced I do not want them to offer Foligno an extension. There has to be a better option in the system or in FA than he. That was a scene of chaos straight out of the Goofy Hockey Homicide cartoon.

Hodgson with a truly awful shift there. I can't figure out who I want them to use the compliance buy out on more: Hodgson or Leino.

Yay! That's Conacher's first as a Sabre. He's earned it.

Hodgson...

Foligno, dude, if you're coming down the slot with the puck, take it to the net. What's with the pass to the boards?

Holy sh!t they're playing undisciplined hockey tonight.

The D is missing Myers I think, and they're missing Z's backcheck a little. I didn't like the lack of coverage right before Weber's penalty.
