  1. Gonna need them to keep the pressure up in the third and not take any dumb penalties. Can't go into Alamo shell mode, we won't survive it.
  2. Let's light this ***** up like the christmas tree in Rockefeller plaza.
  3. Yeah but I want the power play from last year combined with the PK from this year.
  4. We're 10 games into the season and decided to take a look at stats to date: https://www.nhl.com/sabres/stats Some observations: Skinner leads the team with 10 points (5+5), 3 players have 9 points (Mitts, Dahlin, Thompson) The only two skaters to not register a point yet are Bryson (2 games) & Oloffson (6 games) Owen Power leads the team with in the plus category with +9 Connor Clifton leads the team in the minus category with a -6 I only see 3 PP goals notated. Last year our power play was electric and last year it balanced out the atrocious PK. This year we've flipped a switch. The sputtering special teams play is going to cost us games. It needs to get going. UPL (4 gp) has the highest sv% of .926, followed by Comrie (3gp) .914 and Levi has fared the worst with .892. Team defense has been getting stronger as we've gotten into the season so it'll be interesting to see what Levi can do with the team playing well in front of him. Brandon Biro is shooting at 100% 2 for 2. Peyton Krebs has played all 10 games and has only taken 5 shots and put up a lone assist. I can see him becoming the new whipping boy of the team if he doesn't get his game going. Jost's faceoff performance is 52.6% which is the highest amongst forwards who probably have taken multiple face-offs. Tage (45.6), Mitts (40.8) and Zemgus (38.5) need to be better.
  5. The term you're looking for when ordering is "just a schmear".
  6. I only eat sandwiches with no self-respect. It's a difference you can taste.
  7. This is a question that is entirely dependent upon what kind of sandwich you're eating, where it's being eaten and which season it is. Any warm sandwich should be toasted, sans veggies that can't take the heat (specifically lettuce but if you've got some broccoli rabe on there then that lends itself well to a little char). I disagree that cold deli meats should not be toasted, look no further than the humble club sandwich. Every holiday season I usually make a big batch of pickled eggplant for my family. Once it's had a week or so to cure I like to whip up a batch of eggplant cutlets and then throw together a sandwich of bread - cento pepper spread - eggplant cutlet - mozz or provolone - pickled eggplant - onion - tomato - lettuce - s/p - and maybe some mayo - other piece of bread. It is by far my favorite vegetarian sandwich and you bet your ass that bread is toasted along with the eggplant cutlet and cheese.
  8. I've been thinking I'd rather have a lukewarm October instead of the hot starts we've had the past few years if that means the wheels don't completely fall off in November. Here's hoping this win streak keeps rolling.
  9. Your Buffalo Sabres are 2-0 with 6k and Bryson in the lineup.
  10. For the lazy: "Other players to wear #15 for the Sabres: Colin Stuart, Dainius Zubrus, Milan Bartovic, Sergei Petrenko, Greg Brown, Randy Wood, Lou Franceschetti, Kevin Haller, Doug Smith, Chris Langevin, Adam Creighton, Geordie Robertson, Yvon Lambert, Rob McClanahan, Mike Boland, Gary McAdam, Michel Deziel, Bryan McSheffrey, Gerry Meehan." Reading that list is a whose who of who's that? Anyone not picking Randy Wood is simply lying to themselves.
  11. I haven't seen enough from Benson to warrant keeping him around after 9 games. I notice him more often than not when he's taking bad penalties or getting out-muscled instead of positively contributing to the team. I imagine that once Savoie's conditioning stint is over they'll bring him back to the Sabres and send Benson back down. With Comrie on IR maybe they keep both around while that last spot is available.
  12. Projecting the 23-24 lineup?
  13. Haven't read the thread but I find it fun that the first game we roll UPL and Bryson in the same game we don't allow a single goal.
  14. Need to start stringing some Ws together. It could start tonight. The players below have yet to notch a goal this season....who's next off the list? I'm guessing Dahlin or Josty. NAME Rasmus Dahlin D Henri Jokiharju D Owen Power D Kyle Okposo RW Zach Benson LW Connor Clifton D Tyson Jost C Peyton Krebs C Victor Olofsson LW
  15. It'll be funny when every game in regulation ends 0-0.
  16. For casual fans, tuning into a broadcast that jumps between the most exciting plays from each game sounds pretty awesome to me. Hockey can sometimes be boring to watch, especially if you don't care about the teams and they're playing low-event hockey. I think the league is not run very well and is always 8 years behind the times, but this is actually a cool concept.
  17. Here's to hoping for another strong game from Comrie. The best thing for Levi's development will be Comrie playing well which will remove the burden from Levi's shoulder and have him focus on actually having to compete for the starting net.
  18. You're thinking of Southern Junction and they recently moved to a new location. I came here to suggest them as I've heard it's really good, although I haven't tried it yet. I got a Big Green Egg a few years ago and I don't think I've gone out for BBQ since as I can now smoke my meats at home.
  19. I don't see him staying up. I think it's great he made the team and is getting a real taste of NHL action but having the frame of an 18 year old kid is holding him back.
  20. I was thinking that but if he's not 100% why is Granato rolling him out at the end of the guy to get the equalizer?
  21. What's wrong with Tuch? Nothing he's doing is working.
