I don’t think I’ve ever seen you so challenged by the space bar in a post.

HCPH again, failing to either use a timeout or change goalies. ?‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️

I’d be for a royal blue and gold goat head, whichw ould NEVER happen. (Photo provided not royal blue enough

Xmas is over. Hope everyone on SS got what they asked Santa for, other than a Stanley Cup, which doesn’t come in December. Buffalo skates into STL to face their old locker room cancer, ROR. Can Sobotka and Tage show him up? Sabres (21-11-5, 111GF and 105GA) are 4th in the Eastern out of 16 teams. Blues (14-6-4, 96GF, 114GA) are 13th out of 15 in the Western. The Blues have dominated the Sabres for the better part of two decades. Since 1999, St. Louis has a 17-3-4 record against Buffalo, including 9-1-2 in the last 12 meetings. The Sabres haven’t beaten the Blues in St. Louis since Dec. 27, 2009. (TAKE NOTE OF TODAYS DATE) G Game day rules have been suspended for awhile now. The ONLY game day rule that stays in effect is: MUST WIN. The more must win comments, the better.

I still have one. It’s boxed away with my 2600 and a whole bunch of games. Outlaw was my jam.

This was my first one. I still have the second one I had in storage somewhere.

Rick Jeanneret IS the Sabres. He was there before me. As a kid, I fell asleep listening to his broadcasts in bed on my clock radio. He’s pretty much a family member to me. I was lucky to go to the game when he was inducted to their HOF with Hawerchuk. I actually had tears in my eyes, which doesn’t happen often.

Awwww. That brought tears to my eyes. May have even rejuvenated my long-lost belief in Santa Claus.

I don’t know who he is, but I thought his under-the-breath comments amusing. Also, whoever was trying to bash Lehner, good for him. Only allowed 1 goal in 4 of his last 5 games. Good for him.

I haven’t seen it. Please link me.

Then, when Detroit lost in OT, sidekick could be heard mumbling “oh my God.”

Laffs tying the game with 7 seconds left, after playing a fairly lousy game. Love the Detroit PBP announcers sidekick, who sounds like Alan Thicke, who could be heard mumbling “are you serious?”

Did I miss the Xmas card/letter that was getting sent to the Pegulas? ?

IIRC, didn’t the trade also include “a player to be named later,” which we never got? The Rangers still owe us a player.

Praying for RJ and his family.

RistoLAYnin?

And:

Saw this earlier. Absolutely great.

I still think JBOTTS should be calling STL and saying “you owe me” and working out a deal for Tarasenko.

People are screaming for a callup from the Amerks, but there really isn’t anyone on the current roster who is NHL-ready. Maybe Nylander will play better in the NHL than he does in the AHL, which in a different lifetime, seemed to me to be how Pomminstein was.

At this point, they need to try anything that can get some scoring outside of the top line and the D.

Didn’t realize Paul Byron is now an alternate captain for MTL this season. Good for him.

Are you religious?

You know you bought one of his “Sabres jail” hoodies. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.yahoo.com/amphtml/sports/news/ville-leino-depicts-third-season-sabres-jail-clothing-design-185834130.html

I’ve been thinking about it, and what we have been told just doesn’t add up. I’m not buying what seems to just be a theory that he was unhappy with being in Buffalo and/or his role with the team and suddenly tossing away all that guaranteed money. I’m not buying that he misses being on a team near the bottom of the standings, and hated being on a team near the top of the standings. It’s just my feeling, but there is something more going on with either him personally and/or his family. A professional hockey player giving up all that money and term on a contending team on just a whim? I don’t think so. It was/is something more important to him than money and the game. The Sabres, for their part, seemed to have helped keep whatever is going on private, and both parties thus far seem to be working swiftly to accommodate each other.
