  1. Well I was watching the Oilers the other day with Devin Dubnyk in net...they could use a Ryan Miller to make them competitive...although Yakupov is a bit of a showboat for being such a youngster.
  2. Hmmm....Nail Yakupov was benched...
  3. I heard Darcy falls in love with some of his players. :wub:
  4. I'm thinking Darcy got Ristoleinen and Zadorov as a hedge against Myers and others who might not be working out. Myers confidence as a d-man is shot unfortunately. He's doing a lot of standing around at crucial times. Weber, who is also prone to stupid mistakes does not help as his partner...They are awful together. I'd try Myers as a forward for awhile because he seems clueless at D. I like the fact that Weber and Ott are like brothers but I don't think Weber's all that good and Ott, who shouldn't be on the top line w Vanek-Hodgson, is playing as if he's already elsewhere.
  5. CJ! This is a new kind of Bills team that actually hangs in the game even though they get kicked around a little. It's not like other years. I'm a fan of EJ Manuel but don't think the Bills offense are experienced enough to run a no-huddle. With their running game, I'd like to see them eat clock.
  6. Lindy -- You shouldn't have! http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/professor-arrested-up-skirt-shots-camera-pen-article-1.1465728
  7. Kassian to be suspended for breaking Sam Gagne's jaw with a high stick. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=432544
  8. looks like I scooped today's Sunday Buffalo News! http://www.buffalonews.com/
  9. In a related story...there's said to be a link found between losing sports teams and heavier fans...http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2013/08/28/study-link-found-between-losing-sports-teams-heavier-fans/
  10. hopefully rolston can change this lunkhead culture that was created by Ruff.
  11. They've been working on our souls for years. We are now totally morally bankrupt and unable to tell right from wrong and that's what we're teaching our kids, who are even more of an ethical blank slate that we are. This folks is the last stop in the Twilight Zone.
  12. I know it's slick, cool and fashionable to love Breaking Bad but the whole idea of its popularity, like Dexter, like Walking Dead, totally escapes me. It sickens me to think of what meth really does to people and how people are finding this, as well as serial killers and gruesome images of death hip popular entertainment. Don't want to spoil the party but we're losing our souls. http://www.nydailyne...14855?pmSlide=0
  13. Lydman to retire? http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=428936
  14. I would think that Grabovski would be a good acquisition for the Sabres. He definitely has an axe to grind with Carlyle and the Leafs at the very least.
  15. Sounds like you have a firm grip on the trivial and petty minded, while entirely missing the big picture. There's no need to get hostile over stupid things like weight.
  16. any self respecting fan would be, and run him out of town for disrespecting the fans. Too bad many of us have lost respect for ourselves.
  17. The point is, 14 years ago is ancient history and 1999's blue collar team was mainly built by Muckler.
  18. that was 14 years ago.
  19. I was reading the great book about roller hockey "Wheelers, Dealers, Pucks and Bucks." They were writing about the 1994 champion Buffalo Stampede and their character. They said that the Stampede wasn't built on finesse and great goaltending but on brawn and bad behavior. Over the years I think Darcy has got these types of flawed skill players like Stafford who stay on the perimeter and don't like to mix it up. Darcy doesn't get it...he is an elitist. I don't think after 17 years he understands that blue collar character that Buffalo fans can get behind.

    Fred Shero HHF

    Congrats to the Shero family for the long-overdue honor. Old-timers might remember Fred guiding the AHL Bisons to Buffalo's last major league sports championship in 1969-70. I remember going to a few games at the Aud in that championship year when I was 9. I always wondered what might have happened if the Sabres in their fledgling years picked up Shero to see what he could do. Well we found out in '74-75 in the finals vs. the Flyers. RIP Fred with the honor you did us and hockey in general. http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/opinion/2013/07/hockey-hall-of-fame-finally-lifted-its-fog-on-fred-shero.html
  22. I could see Ovenchicken getting traded to Buff if the Caps wanted to punish him.
  23. Massive flood damage in Calgary. You got to feel for them. Here's aerial footage of the devastation. http://www.liveleak....=edb_1371915658
  24. Hey, don't crack on Gerbe. He's going to break out this year, just watch.
  25. The first trade between these two rivals was a huge dud for the Sabres. Maybe there's something in the water in Buffalo that makes players fail. How could they let guys like Stafford stay and let a guy like Paille escape? Because maybe they're not good judges of talent or character. The Ruff-Regier machine keeps giving us these gifts. http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/opinion/2013/06/daniel-paille-earns-praise-from-his-bruins-teammates.html Looks like Shanahan might be out as Discipline Guy soon anyway. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/brendan-shanahan-leaving-dept-player-safety-calgary-flames-230107459.html
