Sabres Fan in NS

No changes to the winning lineup from last night except for Pilut in for the busted up face guy. Quinn will get his chance again soon enough. I expect Vancouver (0 - 5) to be on fire for their first home game. It will be another good test that the Sabres should pass. They have exceeded my expectations on this trip by beating Calgary. It would be a let down to lose the next two and it should only happen due to lack of effort. The Sabres have played well enough to win all 4 games they have played so far.

Confidence and maturity. The players really believe in themselves as a team. It really shows. They were told all along that they could do it and that they would be given every opportunity to learn and grow. They don't need to be told that now.

He's just like Jimmy.

One of his most memorable quotes as Kings coach was that he was almost 55 when asked how he felt. Of couse that was in 2013. Maybe 2014.

Good for him. He's a real baller now.

https://www.facebook.com/NHLFlames/videos/post-game-darryl-sutter-201022/707723547388424/ Not his best effort. He seems calmer since he is 55 years old.

They'd have to sign Porto first ...

He's an *extra* on the ice so I doubt he will play. OTOH ... I like that coach keeps everybody guessing until game time.

Barely. And how did he manage to snage such a hottie ??

Isn't Verlander like a 100 years old ?? Go anybody but the Astros and the Yankees. I'd even take the dastardly Phillies at this point. GO PADRES !!

MUST WIN !! GO SABRES !! Howdy ya'll Canucks ... for your pleasure, which is often so close to pain (😎), this one is on SN360 TV and Interwebs. This is a tough one and a good test for the young Sabres. Speaking of pleasure ... I give you the one and only Darryl Sutter ...

Maybe that should be the thread title ? The title is a bit wordy in my opinion. Then show the graphic you posted.

He is very impressive in the first 3 games. Fun and excitment is right. We all thought that he would score goals and assist on others, but what about the other parts of his game? Will he be a good all-round player or more one dimensional. If he continues to play like this as a kid in the NHL he will be getting serious consideration for the Calder.

TL/DR ...

You are usually so cherry Blue. What's up ?? 😘😉

They better not lose focus this year if they wanna dance in the big dance. There can be no excuse for it.

Vancouver and Seattle are very beatable or should be. Calgary is tough ... very tough. Edmonton seems to bring out the best in the Sabres when that other guy was around who had a chip on his shoulder and all kinds of other stuff going on.

I would be very happy if the Sabres go 2 - 2 on this trip.

We don't care about no schedule this and that. Really!! Bring 'em all on!! The Bills basically have a 2 game lead on the only other team that realistically can stand in their way to the Super Bowl.

MUST WIN!! GO SABRES!! FYI to my fellow hosers ... the game is on SN360 TV and the Interwebs near yous.

Some have picked a backup tune so ...

The life of a professional hockey player. It's tough when an NHL team that you have worked hard for tells you that you are no longer quite good enough. This guy was not great, but he is still human. Same with that other much maligned guy ... Cody something. Anyway, wish him well where he ends up. And thank you for your service.

Ahemmm ... DUDE !!

These two teams are by far the best and most entertaining in the NFL. Unless something happens to upset the apple cart these two will meet in the AFC Championship game in January 2023. As it should be. The NFL should love this, but they probably won't since both are *small market* teams. In January these titans will clash in Orchard Park. Fantastic win.
