  1. Any red blooded male who was around when Carly Simon released "You're so Vain" thinks it is a great song!
  2. Headline says 8 years, but the linked article says Kane and Toews each signed 5 year extensions for $31.5. Can't tell whether it is 5 or 8
  3. RIP Guy, and thanks for posting 716. Like a few others, I learned to love hockey watching the "Pepsi -caps" from the Aud greys. I remember being confused/sad that we were losing Trottier, Villemure and others just because he Sabres were coming.
  4. Can we now get the Earl of Bud into the Buffalo Hall?
  5. Thanks Numark - I was most interested in the contract status I was just wondering about Fasching after reading that e signed Deslauriers
  6. I've got to agree that "Thank you Sabres" and beating the Soviet Wings are unbelievable memories. My favorite goal was probably the OT winner in the Forum in the 75 semi-finals - we were coming home to vanquish the Habs! Favorite game I attended was watching Schoenfeld beat up Cashman - in the Zamboni entrance, Orr & adnais in the same game his rookie year
  7. You could also get 1/2 price student tickets at Tops in the nosebleeds. I remember going to Braves games when the greys were the highest seats. Dr. Jack made that team special in his time as the coach
  8. 28 in Memphis, TN. I did see a single digit 9 on my car thermometer for the first time in Memphis a couple of weeks ago!
  9. I don't know about Nichols-Timon, but I recall a Canisius-St. Joe's game in the late 70's played without fans because of the extracurricular activity involving both fans and players at the prior game.
  10. Exactly +++ We need young talent before we need to fill in the veteran leadership, which will come through FA, if I understood Murray
  11. Enroth and Hackett next year and the management team will know what needs to be done for future goaltending needs.
  12. One difference between this team and 71-72 is that tie games no longer exist. Under 71-72 rules this team is still officially winless!
  13. Great job - especially loved the Earl of Bud at the end!
  14. Godspeed! He kept me informed and entertained throughout my youth.
  15. Another for the 50+ crowd http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-hZmFH6tjk
  16. While Audrey is beautiful, (Princess) Grace Kelly is the most beautiful woman ever. I'll add Rear Window as the greatest Hitchcock movie ever. I also can't believe no one has mentioned To Kill A Mockingbird yet.
  17. The greatest pre-1970 movies have already been mentioned - My Darling Clementine The Pink Panther others not yet mentioned Bonnie and Clyde The Graduate Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
  18. I read almost no fiction, but I read Cold Mountain when it first came out. A wonderful read - Charles Frazier put together such beautiful language, that I have never seen the movie for fear of having the book "ruined".
  19. I reread Zen last summer - a wonderful read Currently reading The Ice Balloon by S.A. Andree
  20. Odds are you'll have to find a bar - VS on a hotel tv in TN is highly unlikely. You'll also compete with people wanting to watch the NIT that night.
  21. It is clear that MJ couldn't handle living in a world without Farrah and his ticker gave out as soon as he heard she was gone! I know my adolescence would have been different without Charlie and his girls.
  22. I have yet to figure out ticket scalpers. There are always plenty here in Memphis at the AAA baseball games and college football games. Neither are ever close to sold out and scalpers are generally demanding box office prices until after the game starts. Unless you are running late and want to avoid a line at the box office I can't understand paying the same price to a scalper.
  23. Are you ready for tomorrow night Corp? The Sabres haven't even showered yet. HGere's hoping Drury is at full strength - I'm not sure where in the leg he got hit but it will really be swollen tomorrow.
  24. reminded me of a Mike Robitaille classic! a 1-0 score with the chances we've had and the way Khabibulin is playing is a very scary situation at the end of 2.
  25. As I was flipping through channels last night I noticed several hockey games were on leading me to conclude it was time for Center Ice's midseason "freeview". Does anyone know the dates - I need to know whether I can watch my Swordsmen or I need to listen to XM.
